Page "Harden–Eulenburg Affair" Paragraph 12

Testifying against Moltke were his former wife of nine years, Lili von Elbe, a soldier named Bollhardt, and Dr. Magnus Hirschfeld.

Elbe described the lack of conjugal relations, happening only on the first and second night of their marriage, Moltke's overly close friendship with Eulenburg, and her ignorance of homosexuality.

Bollhardt described attending champagne-filled parties at Lynar's villa at which he saw both Hohenau and Moltke.

Hirschfeld, based on von Elbe's comments and his courtroom observation of Moltke, testified that Moltke most certainly had a feminine side and was homosexual even if he had never committed sodomy.

On October 29th, the court found Moltke homosexual and Harden innocent.
