Mr. Hubert. So you went to see her then?

Mr. Litchfield. Yes, sir.

Mr. Hubert. And you went to her house?

Mr. Litchfield. Yes; on Swiss.

Mr. Hubert. You had never seen her before?

Mr. Litchfield. Never before that—she said she had seen me, but there was no recollection or no introduction prior to that time.

Mr. Hubert. Well, what happened to the negotiations that you engaged in with her?

Mr. Litchfield. It would be that I would have had to divorce my wife and had to have married her for any other further business to have been transacted.

Mr. Hubert. If I’m not mistaken, isn’t she an older woman than you are a man?

Mr. Litchfield. I believe she is—she’s 30-something or 40-something.
