1t is plain enough that Wolcott was the prime
mover in the above nice little arrangement. Nei-
ther Case nor Lucy seem to have had any suspicion
that the bargain was not perfectly legal one, or
that the document was not absolutely binding OF
all the parties who signed it. They have already
paid dear for their share in the affair. Case ia now
serving ont term in the State prison for the of
fense. Lucy also served with him for time, but
wss pardoned out. She once wrote to the Times
very feeling letter, declaring that she desired TO
remain In prison as long as Case remained there,
and to share her fortunes with him, good OF bad.
She seems to be simple hearted woman, who hates
Wolcott with all her soul, while she hiss been won
by the kindness Of Case, and loves him as she
ought to love a husband only.
