McClure's Magazine says that "the
quarrels between Mary, a child ten
years old, and her father, a gray-

house In an uproar," and adds that
these "fits" were diagnosed by Dr.

The various stories told by Mc-
Clure's Magazine about my father
spreading the road in front of his
house with tan-bark and straw, and
about persons being hired to rock me,
I am Ignorant of. Not; do I remember
any such stnff as Dr. Patterson drly-
ing into Frankllo, N. H., with a couch
or cradle for me in his wagon. I only
ow that my father and mother did
everything they could think of to

¿the' towns of Loudon and Bow,
N. ' 'Fran Win Pierce, afterwards
lireBldent of the United States, was
counsel for Loudon and Mark
Baker for Bow. Both ente.r.ed their
pleas, and my father won th'e suit.
After it. was decided, Mr. Pierce bow-
ed to my father and congratulated
him. For several years father was
chaplain of the New Hampshire state
militia, and as I recollect it, he was
justice of the peace at one time. My
father wan a strong believer in states'
rights, but, slavery he regarded as a
great sin.
Mavk Baker was the youngest of
his father' family, and Inherited his
father's real estate, an extensive
i'ai'm situated In Bow and Concord,
N. H. It is on record that Mark Bak-
er's fnthev paid the largest tax In the
colony. McClure's Magazine says,
describing the Baker homestead at
Dow: "The house itself was a small,
square Isoss building; of rudimentary
architecture." My father's house had
n sloping root after the prevailing
style of architecture a:, that date.
Mculure's. Magazine states: "Alone
c? the Bakers, he (Albert;) received a,
iiUernl education Mary Baker
passed her first fifteen, years at the
eaeeatral home at Row. It was a lone-
ly and uHHtSmuiatlng existence. The

reply to thh^statemeivt that the
k's book shows thá't I joined the
Ttlton Congregational ch Irch at the
age of seventeen is that my religious
experience seemed to culminate at
twelve years of age. Hence a mistake
may have occurred as to the exact
date of my first church membership.
The facts regarding the McNeil
tof-arms are as follows:
^Mrs

that ij was taken in connection with
her own family coat-of-arms. I never
doubted the veracity of her gift. I
have another coat-of-arms, which Is
of my mother's ancestry. When I
was last in Washington, D. C., Mrs.
Judge Potter and myself nelt in silent
prayer on the mound of her late fa-
ther, General John McNeil, the hero
of Lundy Lane.
Notwithstanding that McClure's
Magazine says, "Mary Baker com-
pleted her education when she finish-
ed Smith's grammar and reached long
division in arithmetic," I was called
by the Rev. R. S. Rust, D.D., princi-
pal of the Methodist Conference
Seminary at Sanborton Bridge, to
supply the place of his leading teach-
er during her temporary absence.

that was a sorry offence. I was oblig-
ed to be parted-from my son, because
after my father's'second marriage my
little boy was-not welcome In my
father's hciuse.
McClure's Magazine calls Dr. Dan-
iel Patterson; my second husband,
"an Itinerant dentist." It says that
after .my. .marriage we 'lived a shprt
time a> Tll'ton, then moved to Frank-
lin. . . During the following nine
years the'' Pattersons led a roving ex-
istence. The doctor practice .

ton and then Rumney." When I was
married to him, l>r. Daniel Patterson
was located In Franklin, N. H. He
had the degree D.D.S., was a popular
man, and considered a rarely skilful
denflst. He bought a place in North
Groton, which he fancied, for a sum-
mer home. At that time he owned
á house In Franklin, N. H.
Although, as McClu're's Magazine
claims, the court record may state
that my divorce from Dr. Patterson
wa . granted on the ground of deser-
tion, the cause nevertheless was
adultery. Individuals are here today
who were present in court when the
decision was given by the Judge and
who know the following facts: After
the evidence had been submitted that
a husband was about to have Dr. Pat-
terson arrested for eloping with his
you falsely, for my sSke."
