table negroes. A few days subsequent to her
arrival she gave birth TO a child, and she was
properly cared for by the hospitablc negroes
for several months, when she left them reward
ing them handsomely for their care She
then took the child and carried it 70 the house
of Grafton Banks and left it with his family,
with hundred dIllars in money aud instruc
tons TO call on her for more money when re-
quired. She then LEFT, Grafton alone
