Minor T. Simmons, according to the New
York Commercial 4Grertiser, is gay young
man, about five feet stcn inches high, with
light hair and mutton-chop whiskers. He
claimed to be a SOutherner, belonging to
Mobile, and while in Newark, New Jersey,
managed to ingratiate himself into the affec-
lions of dashing young widow, possessed
of considerable ready cash, and some
property, and induced her, contrary to the
wishes of her friends, to go with him to New
York for the purpose Of marriage. They
enjoyed the comforts of hotel life a few
days in that city, when the heartless scamp
suddenly disappeared, taking with him the
ready money and iewelry. of the woman he
had so cruelty deceived.
Hand the man Simmons, with mutton
chop-whiskers around. 1t is, more than
likely, however, he will cease to sport his
muttOn-chop whiskers when he finds him
self described and his business exposed. If
he really belongs in Mobile, he will he
known with Or without his muttOn-chop
whiskers, and will receive nothing but
stones there, if he should dare put in an
appearance.
