young grocer of Philadelphia, named tTtifi;
!b.estone, became .ef,anlored of 4 young lady
belonging to Il wealthy aud aristocratic fam.
| ity named Levy. Z. Mamie. 2 as she was ctled,
returned the affection of Tnmblestone. They
both attended the same church, and were,
we believe, members of the same Sabbath
school; but the heightened mother of q. MAJ
mie." widow lady, finding that her daugh-
ter was deeply in love with hIr. Tumblestoue,
the dealer in coffee and sugar. sottght at once
to break oil the match. She hustled her daiigli-
ter og to Georgia, where she was brought
into contact with Il naughty young South
erner, who, the mother thought, was just fitted
TO be her Sor,-in-law. But Mamie longed for
her groceryman to whom Der troth had been
plighted. She endured tue young Georgian:
she didn't love him. The mamma managed
to throw the Young people together on every
possible occasion, and employed all mothers
wiles to fun the flame Of love in her daugh-
ter'S breast. 1t was no use, and one MORN
ing the matchmakers awoke to find the young
lady missing. She had fled, no one knew
whittier. Search was made without avail
till at last it was learned that Miss Levy had
reached the Quaker City. 1t seems that she
had returned to her lovers arms, told him
just how things stood, and the two had
quietly gone over to Camden and been made
On" flesh and separated, returning TO their
individual homes. This was on the 1st of
july, and scarcely had they got back to Phla-
dc, p:ia when the mother arrived. But it was
100 late. Her child was married and the sou
OF Georgia wus diSComlited. What next? 4
Tip to Saratoga was proposed. and the young
Georgian secretly telegraphed to "come on"
Arriving here. they put up at one of the
principal hotels, and in due time the southern
lover came and registered at the same hotel.
Mamie, he knew, had been formerly married
to Tunble>one. and he ought to have given
up the game. Tic didn't, however. He only
made new combinations. He was bound to
beat the Philadelphia grocer anyway. The
way he sought to do il was this: He told
the mother that inaSmuclI rs I" Mamie and
Tumblcstone had not dwelt together at all as
husband and wife it was nothing but Il
paper marriage, and not binding. The
weak and wicked mother fell into the
trap. and :" Mamie" was badgered, and.
clioIed, and deceived, till at last she
yielded. Rev. j. NJ. King was sent for,
and mamie" and her Georgia lover were
formally married, and thus made parties
the one to Il felony and the other to the
crime OF bigamy. OF course the antccedcnts
in the case were kept concealed from the
officiating clergyman. About this time Tuni-
bleStunc. suspecting something wrong, canc
on from Philadelphia, and was confronted
with the facts stated above. His legal wife
had committed bgamy by marrying his
Georgia rival. \ legal examination followed
before one of Our justices, and the fact was
elected that both the mother and the Georgia
man knew of Miss Levy's marriage to Tum-
b.ostone. This was enough to make the act
criminal. All the parties left town ut once,
and legal proceedings have been commenced
in the case. The name OF the Georgia gem
tlcman who fcIonouSly married The wife of
William II. Tumblcstone is John +. HUI
liugSwolth. He belongs in Macon, Ga.
