An attack in Browning’s apartment at Kew Gar dens in Queens, she asserts, caused her to become so hysterical and des- pondent that she drank poison. Threat Is Alleged. Afterward, she declares, Browning showed her a pistol and threatened to Kill her and himself if she revealed what had happened to the district at- torney. After the adoption had been annuiled, she avers, Browning forced her to go to a hotel and sign papers, the nature of which she did not know. Mary Louise was adopted August 4 and the adoption was annulled a week later because she misrepresented her age. She claims that she told Brown ing she was 20, but he forced her to sign adoption papers in which her age was given as 16. The annulment was due to action by the authorities. Mary Louise was selected by Brown- ing as his “Cinderella girl” from hundreds of photographs and personal applicants.
