In Jul 1934 he is being called "Curtis Dall of Chicago", and Time Magazine in Jan 1935 reports that the seat held by him was being transferred to Alpheus Beane. But by 1936 he is again "Curtis Dall of New York". Several times it's mentioned that he is visiting Governor Herring of Iowa. There is the barest mention that Curtis is suing ''Time Magazine'' for libel in 1935 or '36 but with no details, but then in 1937 we get the details.

<table><tr><td>Curtis married secondly in 1938 to Katharine Miller Leas<sup>[[#Footnotes 5|P]]</sup> (1917-2000), they had four surviving children: Katharine, Mary, Stephen and James. From this point, I see no more mentions of Curtis spending time with his first two children, and by 1944 his son is being called "Curtis R Boettiger". Additionally, when "Sistie" got married in 1948, Curtis was not in attendence. (see [http://www.newspaperarchive.com/PdfViewerTags.aspx?img=68016218¤tResult=22&src=search&firstvisit=true ''San Antonio Light'', 8 Jul 1948, page 24]) It would appear likely because of this that there was some kind of strain in, or even severing of the relationship. This would have apparently happened sometime between 1939 and 1944. Possibly Curtis' second marriage was the trigger. | <table><tr><td>Curtis married secondly in 1938 to Katharine Miller Leas<sup>[[#Footnotes 5|P]]</sup> (1917-2000), they had four surviving children: Katharine, Mary, Stephen and James.
