paragraph in The n. D. Delta:
The interest which the articles in Pafaams Maga:ia.
on the Bourbon question have created IN the pubic mind
seems likely 10 be increased by the discovery of fresh and
imporant evidence in this city. In substance this evi-
dence as we credbly informed Is as follows In the
northeastern part Of the city old lady has resided for
many years past who in early life was on terms OF init
macy with the Bourbon family her husband having been
Secretary 10 the Count Artos She possessed therefore
onnortunites of information which few could enjoy She
makes oath that she heard from the sister OF the Dauphn,
as long ago sO that her brother was safe IN America
and that learned from member OF the Royal household
in 1917 that the exled Prince ndian Missionary In
the United States named Williams and IN proof that these
declarations not based on any recent publication there
respousbe testimony that she has mSde them Tor Nleat
twelve wears IL 10 most improbable that evil
dence all tending 10 point should DO derived from so
many quarters without truth at the center and we have lit
lie doubt that the evidence Will get clearer ana stronger -
the invests cation proceeds
The NJ o. Bulletin says OF the same evidence:
We learn from gentleman who Is himself conversant
with the facts that important testimony has been dscoy-
cred in this city respecting the mysterious case OF the Rev
Eleazer Williams. which in the opinion OF friend IN
whose Judgment we have much confidence, will go far
10 confirm the belief that he is indeed the Dauphn OF
France. -
It's derived from person who was in close intimacy
with the Bourbon family m the early part OF THIS century,
and entirely susans the arguments presented IN FHaams
The great value of this testimony consists In
s perfect isolation from all other testimony and in tho
proved fact that the party from whom Is derived has CIV
on the same account for ~ least twelve years past
Our attention was called this subject by observing in
Mr. Normans Book store several portraits OF the Kew
Eleazer Williams aud one Of Louis XVIII, and must
confess that the strong resemblance between them carries
GREAT WEIGHT 10 our minds. IA yet nothing definite has
been discovered concerning beanger though seems 20
be the firm conviction of many that much Is dscoyerable
We would respectfully request any persons who may Do
able to throw light upon this mystery to do So and we WIZ
heerv open our columns 10 any communication on tho
subject Being convinced that the investigation is con
ducted in good faith with the view Of scitng the truth
think but Just TO afford every facility in our power to
those engaged in it, The question is one which certainly
appeals to our sympathy men, and to our curiosity as
students OF history.
Per contra gentleman of Green Bay expresses con.
siderable Indignation at the recent attempt at imposition
re-pecng the parensge, &c, Of the half breed Williams.
This gentleman offers 10 demonstrate
lt That Williams is not as old by six years as the unior-
tupate son of Louis the Sixteenth would be he alive.
ID That Williams with his Indian mohor apapoose,
rapped on to board after the fashion of her tribe while
the Dauphin confined in the Temple prison and

communication made bin by the Of Louis Phipe -
utterly false and that Williams had often claimed to DC OF
the blood royal Of France before the Prince do Jonyile
came TO this country
