He had written to Mrs. Bates while she was in New York upon the request of Mr. Bates and gave the re- plies to him. Arthur F. McEntire, who was mention- ed in the cross bill filed by Mr. Bates, said the ghost of Mr. Florence was claim- ed by Mrs. Bates to be the father of one of her daughters. o Louise C.
