Hart Says She Did Not Recover From the Shock of Her Brother’s Death MOODS ALWAYS GLOOMY Elosg aa Witness Never Knew Her to Transact Any Business Out- side of Household Affairs —— v Jerome A. Hart took the stand yes- | terday morning and gave - testimony regarding the sanity of Miss Isabel l(‘lark who committed sufcidé in Dr. | McNuttjs hospital, and whose will is| | | being contested. Mr. Hart made a splendid witness for the prosecution,“ | but his direct examination was not | { completed before the hour of adjourn- | | ment. His testimony was in the form of a narrative of events connected with the life of decedent from the time he | first met her until the time of her death. | According to the testimony of Mr. | Hart Miss Clark was always of a moody disposition and pessimistic. When her brother, to ! whom she was devotedly attached, died | on August 1, 1898, she collapsed and {from that time on grew gradually worse. He was constantly in fear that she would end her life, and was not surprised when he found that she had | committed suicide. The witness related a number of instances in which Miss Clark showed what he considered men- tal derangement. Prior to entering the sanitarium and while quartered at the Palace Hotel, the witness testified, Miss Clark would go around for days with her hair down and a glassy look in her She refused to take food and | eves. would not answer questions addressed | to her. When it was suggested that she should go to Dr. McNutt's hospital e did not demur. | had been the family | years. WAS ALWAYS MORBID. During the period of Mr. Hart's ac- | quaintanceship with Miss Clark she | had always been morbid and melan- i choly. She never enjoyed the ordinary | Vspcr!s, such as riding, golf and tennis, |.as the others did, but preferred to shut herself indoors. She would sit around neglige costume and request others to attend to the social duties. Hart called on her shortly after she! and found her! | entered the hospital | very much emaciated. | he says, She told him, that her sisters, Grace and { Ann, were soon to be married, that no | inclined to be | ‘Witness thought it | the gallant! perfectly natural that she should go| | to Dr. McNutt’s hospital as Dr. MeNutt | physician lo;: ARMY PREPARES H0 MEET CHIEF Troops Stationed at Presidio Every Transport in Is Being Placed in Shape to| Go Into Active Service at Call SRS LS The first of the preparatory reviews | to get the troops in shape for the grand | | review that is to be kLeld in honor of | | Secretary of War Taft will ‘ake place | to-morrow. at 10 a. m. on the golf links | Of course the move- | ‘at the Presidio. ments of the secretary are uncertain.

He said he had never known her to transact business of any kind. Mrs. Hart, who is one of the litigan\s, was, according to the statements of the wit- ness, on the best of terms with Miss Clark and frequently visited her, al- though he always discouraged such visits as they seemed productive of no good.
