Numerous gentlemen friends, including
a former suitor, from whom she had

for while, and then drank freely at a
neighboring bar. After parting with
Miss Schwab at her home, Iaddeson in

at the ball to drink with him in O saloon

served with liquor Madison turned to
them and said, Il am sick of life. boys,
