A HARD CAsE.-The Prisoners Friend
Society had recently under their care an
interesting case. In 1915 there resided
near London, q family consisting Oft man,
his wife and three children. They were
in moderate circumstances and happy as
they could wish. In an evil hour the
husband left for America, hoping to bet.
ter his condition. Nothing was heard
from him for ovcra year, lie then wrote
TO his wife, instruciing her to sell of the
property and remit the money TO him, but
not to come herself until he wrote again,
as this country was sickly and he was
unprepared for her reception She did
50, but no second letter came, and at the
end OF six months, sick at heart. she de.
termined to seek him in America. Her
friends supplied her with iriilc OF money
and she crossed the Atlantic. On arriy.
ing at Rochester She found that her huz.
band lived about ten miles distant. and
was married to second wife. A mag.
istrate was informed Of the iacts aud ar.
rested the man for bigamy. While ia
the officers charge, he Qhe husband) pro.
cured pistol aud, to escape the law
blew his brains out. The guilty husband
then lay dead, and the wife stood among
strangers, without money or home,
while her children were in England
She was offered passage to New Yorl,
ii she paid half price, and 10 procure it she
stole Il coat, but was detected, tried for
larceny, aud under the name of McCary
was few months since sentenced 10 the
State Prison for two years. The priso.
ners' Friend Society examined her case
found she had been more "sinned against
than shining" and procured her pardon.
She is now the matron in benevolent
Neutrality-suspicious. an exemplary wo.
is saving money to bring her
children TO this country.
