FAIRFAX COURT HOUSE, Va, June 4.—The purpose of B. Agee Bowles' visits to the home of Mr. and Mrs. B. Frank May, Falls Church, was “to stop them from spreading tales about me,” the Georgetown banker de- clared today under cross-examination in the trial of a $20,000 damage suit brought against him by Mrs. May. “If I had only wished to upbraid them I would not have gone as I would consider I was wasting my time,” said Bowles, a vice president of the Potomac Savings Bank. Mrs. May charges in her suit that as a result of Bowles' two visits to her home in February, 1930, and the loud manner in which he accused her, she suffered & nervous breakdown that caused her to become paralyzed. She also contends that Bowles unjustly ac- eused her of spreading stories about him and a woman. ‘Was Merely “Positive.” Bowles denied, under direct examina- tion, that he was angry or raised his voice during the visits, as charged by Mr. and Mrs. Mays. He said he was merely “positive.” He also contradicted testimony of the Mays that Mr. May had warned him of his wife’s nervous condition or “that what I was saying would have any adverse effect cn her.” He said Mrs. May seemed calm and took part in the { talk. It was at Mr. Mays’ suggestion, Bowles said, that he made his second visit to the Mays home on February 25, 1930. On this occasion, he continued, he PHONE NORTH 33492-43-44 for Fruits Berries HOUSE 3 LORDS Morning Cereals HENCE THE NAME—- Fruit POWDERED brought an affi it for the Mays to sign which contained a denial that they had spread any stories about him and that the stories alleged to have been spread were untrue. He sald the Mays declined to sign the affidavit jointly, but wanted two separate ones, which he promised to bring back later. He never returned because of “the trou- ble which happened later,” he said. Refused to Belieye. Bowles said that on his second visit the Mays told him the stories which were being spread around about him and the woman, Mrs. Ray Mills of Falls Church, were ., emanating from the woman’s daughter, Helen, 12 years old. He sald he was “dumfounded to learn the Mays would talk to a 12-year-old girl about her own mother.” He said he told ttem he could not believe them because on the first visit they had denied knowing anything about the alleged statement. After leaving the May house, Bowles returned to the Mills home, where he discussed with Helen, either that night or a few days later, what had taken VACATION S place, he told the jury. Since that con versation, he sald, he had never dis- cussed the situation with Helen. Cross-examined at length about his relationship with Mrs, Mills, Bowles said: “I can say positively that I was never in the Mills home when there was no one there but Mrs. Mills. I was never out of the Mills place with Mrs. Mills after dark, and when I was in any automobile with her either Mr. Mills or Helen were always in the car.” He admitted under cross-examina- ticn, however, that he had taken Mrs. Mills out “to teach her to drive their CLAFLIN | | Optician—Optometrist [| 922 14th St. N.W.
