WORCESTER is vastly exercised over a scan
dalous elopement which has come to light there
within the last few days. The parties, who
have left the city, are Mr.. e. A. Babcock and
Mrs. NJ. A. Willard, the tenor and soprano Of
the choir of the Trinity NJ. E. church, both
well known and respectfully connected. Mr..
Babcock is junior partner in the firm of j.
Todd & Co., AMI resided with bis wife on
Charlton street; Mrs. Willard is wife OF Mr.. s.
a. Willard, and resided with him on Portland
street. They have one child, a girl fourteen
years OF age. Mrs. Willard was also a dress
maker, aud has enjoyed the patronage of quite
a circle eff customers. Mr. Babcock has been
engaged for the most part in travelling for The
firm, and departed on the 9th inst on his New
Hampshire route. Mrs. Willard left Worcester
on Thursday, ostensibly to visit friends in
Leomister. In reality, however, she vert to
Concord, and there met Babcock at hotel,
and they left on the night train for Montreal.
The affair has produced a great sensation, as
nothing of the SORT has been suspected, and
both the guilty persons bad borne an excellent
reputation. Much sympathy is expressed for
Mrs. Babcock, who is in feeble health.
