DEATH OF THE AUTHOR OF
BEAUTIFUL SNOW"

A few years ago there appeared 10 an
American paper published in one Of the
Western States on exquisite poem entitled
Beautiful Snow Tho beauty OF the
composition secured its repub licatlon In
numerous journals, until at length it
found its way to England, accompanied by
the tale that the original had been discov-
cred upon the person ofa young woman
who was frozen 10 death In the streets OF
81. Louis. Fer o long time the author
preserved his "incognito," while numerous
claimants sought to establish the title to
its authorship and the honors appertain-
ing thereto.
Some one who knew the true history Of
the poem, knew also the cause of the reti-
cence in not Civ ag his name TO the world
Some months since the secret was re-
vealed, and Sigourney, nephew OF the eel
ebrated poetess by that name, became
known as tho writer. Harper's Magazine
PUBLISHED o companion poem entitled
"Beautiful Child" which is marked by all
the elegance Of diction and deep religious
feeling characteristic eff its predecessor.
Who could have thought that in few
weeks its gifted author would I'LL sui
cides graye2 Yet such is the case.
On the night Of April %, 1872. W. A. H..
sigourney was found dead in the outskirts
Of New York, under circumstances leading
to the belief that he had shot himself. lie
had in early life married Miss, a
lady Of great personal attrac tions, and
with her made voyage to Europe. Du-
ring their absence rumors uefavorable to
her character reached the Sigourney fami-
ly. The report seemed to have been well
founded, for shortly after her return to
New York she showed that the curse OF the
nineteenth century-the demon drink
had added another name to its list Of VIC
tins. She abandoned her husband became
On outcast, and was next heard of as an
inmate Of the penitentiary on BLACK SelPs
Island. Her husbands love was still suf-
ficiently strong to induce him to make an
effort to save her, and through his inhu-
ence she was released only again to desert
her home.
In the winter of 1868, tho papers spoke
Of young and handsome woman having
beed found dead under the snow in dis
reputable street in New Yark. Something
seemed to tell Sigourney that it was the
body of his wife. Upon making enquiries
he found that his surmises were but too
true, ard after claiming the remains he
had them inferred in that "silent city
which oyerlOoks the busy harbor Of New
York. The story Of that erring wife was
told in the touching language Of "Beauti-
full Snow" What is the wonder, then, that
he Stunned the publicity which its author
ship would have conferred
Henry J. Raymond the editor of the
New York~rimes, was for years the friend
Of Maj Sigourney, and ObtVined for him
employment rs u journalist which failing
health compelled him to abandon. Cir
cumstances connected with his death re-
main mystery. Not even his child, for
whom he always displayed the tenderest
affection, can throw any light upon it.
The last effort of his genius is displayed
in tho following poem, already referred to
