one DAY iady called 10 see tue poor
woman ana III the conversation that fol-
lowed. II turned out that IN" visitor had
ilAewise been married roooed ana ADAM
doneu IN the same manner oy the same
villain. The revelation - affected the
mind OF the young mother that she be-
came almost maniac. Her family then
Tor the hrst time learned OF the cruelty
which she had endured. ihey carried her
10 Europe again FOR a change OF scene aud
air, and she remained TOR several IN onths.
She returned with her child not long ago.
When about TO land from the steamer, She
was accosted by a gentleman who said he
was friend OF her brother, and had been

she and her little one would probably have
been abducted bv the infamous husband.
The fellow was allowed to escape. be-

measures were taken at once 10 secure a
divorce. and the poor woman has finally
been freed from his prosecutions Ii has
since TRANSFERRED that the villain has three
or four wives. from all nf whom he obtain
ed money, in the same manner and then
deserted them. He has been traced to
Europe, and it is believed will be caught
and proved to be one OF the most adroit
bigami.ts of the age.
The trial of Stokes now in progress
adduces no new facts. No one believes,
however, that if found guilty, he will be
