woman known as Lizzie Peck was
arrested on charge of forgery, the
alleged offence consisting in procuring
goods upon orders falsely signed with
the name of Mary Pleasant, whom the
accused claims as her mother. Lizzie
now tells
REMARKABLY STRANGE STORY.
She alleges that she was attending a
first-class private school in Boston,
where she and her sister were left by
their parents on their departure for
California. About year afterward
her mother wrote her, informing her
that wealthy colored man in San
Francisco had become enamored of her
from seeing her picture, and that the
mother had promised him the hand of
the girl. With this came letter from
the lover himself, making an offer of
marriage. Another letter shortly
came to hand, enclosing his picture,
and showing him to be man advanced
in years. At the same time she re-
ceived from her mother a sum of
money sufficient for her passage, with
order to repair to San Francisco and
be married.
SUBSTITUTION.
Having conceived an affection for a
young man about her own age, the
girl conceived the idea of sending her
sister, who somewhat resembled her,
to fulfil the matrimonial contract, and
accordingly a ticket was purchased
and the sister departed. The next
news she received was an epistle from
the mother, flaming with wrath, or
dering her to depart instanter for San
Francisco, or be prepared to support
herself in future, as not another dollar
should she receive from home.
A SEPARATION.
She came to this city, and against
her will was married to her adorer.
In few months they separated, and
the wife began an action for divorce,
asking for share of the property.
About this time the sister died, and
the heroine of the story was herself
dangerously ill for long time. On
recovery she bethought herself of her
divorce business, and waited on her
lawyer to learn the result. To her as
tonishment she found that the moth
er had represented to the attorney
that she was the one who had died,
and that the case had been stricken
from the docket. She and her hus-
band were on friendly terms, though
| she refused to live with him, and he
often supplied her with money.
Finally.he died, assuring his wife that
she should be provided for.
ALLEGATION AGAINST THE MOTHER.
She alleges that during his last i'll
ness her mother prevented her having
access to him, and persuaded him that
as the daughter was incapable of
transacting business judiciously, the
best way to insure her competence
would be to leave the property to her
(the mother) to be used for the daugh-
ter's benefit. Accordingly, by deed of
gift, the dying man conveyed to Mrs.
Peasants property worth over S 900.
The girl alleges that she never receiv-
es any benefits from the S120 per
month of rents collected from this
property, and that the present prose-
cution is plan to get rid of her inn
portunities. She alleges that the diff
ference between her mother and her.
self arose from causes which will be
explained on the trial in a way to
create sensation in certain quar-
terS.
