Eropn the Hartford Co1uGnf, June 2s
The ickleness OF fortune is well illustrated in
the experience of worthy family in this city,
who have suddenly found themselves raised
from that condition in society where people are
said to live in moderate circumstances" to the
highest pinnacle of wealth. Tue facts are
these:-Mrs. Eli Walker, residing at No. 100
Maple avenue. ls a woman OF English birth. Her
husband, who is q machinist by trade, and her
sell have resided here tor q number OF years,
and have several children.
1t was reported some months ago that large
property, valued at thirtY-Gve millions OF dol
lars, had fallen to Mrs. Walkers father, as
direct neT, and he being dead, that the whole
amount belonged TO her as his only child Steps
wele at once taken to ascertain the truth OF this
report, and Ex-Governor T. Ii. Seymour was en-
ployed to investigate it. The result of his in
vestigation is entirely favorable to Mrs. Walker,
documents having been received which show
beyond question that she will come IN possession
of this immense property, and she, together With
her husband and children, will start Tor England
next week to receive the golden egg.
1t is said that upon full settlement OF all
matters connected with this most extraordinary
"streak of luck" Mrs. Walker will return to
Hartford ana make her permanent residence
here. Rumor hath it that she will erect upon
some eligible site magnificent mausion, fol
Loving the style of the grand villas and castles
deur the most costly OF American palaces.
But the lady has not probably given any one
permission to make such a statement. 1t is
more reasonable to suppose that some sossipper,
thrilled by the intelligence of the "wlndfalh
has allowed his imagination to picture, as MEL.
nottpn pictured to Pauline fairy palace
with marcle halls by the Lake of Conn. Yet il
would not be surprising il the fortunate posses
SCISSOR of thirty.6ve millions in solid gold should
desire TO erect here-where years of toll have
been expended TO furnish daily support-a
mansion suitable to lite of luxury and ease,
and creditable to the city which she adopted as
q home.
We congratulate Mrs. Walker and her family
upon their good fortune. She will be, when IN
full possession of her peoperty, the richest
woman IN the United States. But she is said to
be a woman OF good sense, and will not place
herself beyond The reach Of those who have
been her friends during the years she has lived
here: already we learn that II is her purpose to
make one family at least, in whom she is
interested, independent OF want; and we shall
probably be called upon hereafter to chronicle
other charitable deeds which her generosity will
prompt
