And as you'll see, there's countless. So it's really hard to keep it track. Yeah. In a letter to a friend, Catherine wrote, Oh, that's really sad. And when she says James certainly knew how to get married quickly, that's an understatement. Oh, yeah. Yeah.

So on his frequent trips away from home, he was doing something that didn't seem suspicious to Catherine at the time. Yeah. He travels for work. Yeah, like it wasn't hard to convince her. Sure. So what was a little suspicious was he would come back from these trips a lot of time with women's clothing and jewelry. That's upsetting. Yeah.

Now, because Watson was a consummate liar who, by the end of his life, couldn't even tell which parts of his own history were true and false, like he had literally muddled his own memory so much. That's scary. Yeah, it's really difficult to know where his habits went from bigamy to murder, like where exactly it happened. Between 1915 and 1918, he was juggling several marriages at the time.
