A Mlser and his Wealth.

Some time last month an old man
named John Humphrey died in the town
OF Appleton, Me. In his lifetime he was
known TO be mlser, and it was sup
posed that he had considerable money
laid away. For the past eight years Mr..
Samuel Ripley has lived on humphreys
farm, taking care of Humphrey and his
wife. After the old mans death Mr..
Ripley made search of the house to
see ii he could find any money. The
result was that he touna secreted in an
old desk Two sacks filed with twenty
dollar gold pieces to the amount OF
81, 300 Ill each sack.
There was also found in an old sink,
laid away in an old unoccupied closet,
other parcels filed with silver coin,
many OF them of ancient date and mostly
foreign coin, among them many five
franc pieces and also Mexican dollars
and Spanish coin. Mrs. Humphrey,
re4iet OF the late John Humphrey, still
survives him, but is SO infirm and Imbe-
cile as to be unable to care for herself,
and So unconscious and idiotic as to
know nothing of the past. AS there are
no children or other heirs, of course No
one questions the right OF MI. Ripley to
legal possession Of this new-iound
treasure. The whole amount thus lar
discovered is between $4,000 and $4,000.
