Death of Charlotte Cramp.on.

The curtain has been rung down for
the last time, the death scene is over,
and one of Americas great actresses is
no more.
The last scene of this mournful drama,
this dismal closing of q once promising
career OF once beautiful woman, was
St. Joseph's Infirmary, Louisville, the
city of her birth. Charlotte Champion
was at one time great actress,
and at all times good one, and no
woman has ever started upon the stage
with more fattering promises for the
future than she did. But, step by step,
did misspent life undermine both con-
stitution and ambition, until nothing
was left but the faint traces of what
once was, and she died almost in the
prime Of life, "a leading old woman'
merely. when she might have lived the
glory of our stage. On her monument
let there be placed the universal epi-
taph, "Requiescat In pace"
