MICHIGAN CITY. Ind, Sept. 23— With a throat sore from reading love letters, when the jurors took their seats to-day the Clerk of the Rush County Ciroult Court bravely tackled the seven- ty-flve tender, warm literary eftoris from the pen of Marcus A. Kendall, of Richland Township, who is beng sued for $15,000 for breach of promise by Miss Blanche Culver, of Jersey City. For three hours yesterday the clerk struggled through twenty-five letters, and when the jury tired and he grew husky from reading ‘“duckle, dearie, love, yours and yours only.’ and the |name of the wealthy Richland Town- sh'p man, the Court ordered an adjourn- ment. Miss Culver, who was on the witness stand for a while yesterday, collapsed | after a severe cross-examination. Ken- | dall smiled when the reading of the let- ters began. At first they were almost formal, but as they grew warmer and became “‘ootsy tootsy" in tone, he pulled at his blond rgustache and left the court-room, Kendall wrote “Before you came Into my heart, all was gloom. Now ‘tis music,” Here is a defin'tion of love by Kendall; “Well, dearest, it Is the old, old stury— this old story of love—the divine music of the heart: It is the basis of all the world's joy and song. tired of It, main features. city Ge country; they love.
