site IN his trade, had Of late for some cause OF
other, refused TO allow her the usual weekly sum
for housekeeping. Having, also, in other re-
Spccts treated her, as she conceived IN an unkind

Of the professional gentleman she was then con-

man. Legal Investigation Of the affair was made
at the police Office, which resulted in the sepa-
ration Of the unnatural paired couple. From

male husband, it would seem thst she assumed
the garb and character Of boy a, an early age
and that, in that character she was apprenticedi
at tho age OF sixteen or seventeen, to master
