Death Of Dl.tinsuish.d vermont Lady.

The venerable Madam Williams ,relict of the
late Hon. Charles K.williams, for many years
chief justice of the Supreme Court of Vermont,
and Governor of that State from 1850 to 1852,
died at Rutland, October IS, in her eighty
fourth year. Her death occurred at her resi-
dence, in the house to which she came as a
bride ffty-three years ago. Her maiden name
was Lucy Green Langdon, her father being
Hon. Chauncey Langdon, of Castleton, MEM
Der of Congress and Of the Governors Council.
Mrs. Williams was for many years notable
woman Of Rutland, leader in society, active
and earnest in all good works, and justly held
10 the highest esteem. Several years after
the death Of her distinguished husband she
paid q visit, with friends, TO the session Of the
legislative House OF Representatives, at Mont
pelier, and the members present rose In body
to do her honor. She was the oldest member
of the Episcopal church In Rutland, both in
years and membership, and survived all her
contemporaries In Rutland society, except
Mndam Temple. She leaves four sons and
daughters, one of whom, Chauncey K. VIII
lians, Is editor of the Rutland Globe. Mrs.
Williams was the maternal grandmother of
Mr.. Charles X. W. Strong, of the Treasury
Department, one of the most influential mute
residents of Washington.

ENBEZzLENENT,
Arrest Of hr. Andrew B. coyle on a Serious

Gharge.
Last Friday afternoon Mr.. Andrew B. Coyle,
well known in this city, and formerly promi-
nent business man, was arrested on the charge
of embezzlement on a warrant sworn out
before s. c. Mills, esq. The developments
show that the accused has been eng iged in
the real estate business for some time past,
and was applied to by lady year ago, in
his capacity as real estate broker, to effect for
her loan of $500 on piece of property be-
longing to her. Mr.. Coyle, it seems, found no
difficulty in raising, not only the $500, but
was successful In obtaining 1000, as the
security offered was perfectly good for that
amount. The amount desired by that lady,
$500, was turned over to her, less the COM
mission charged for negotiating the loan. In
very brief interval the fact was developed
that her property was bound for double the
sum she had received. She has made re-
peaied efforts to get Mr.. Coyle to settle the
$500 balance, and although repeatedly promis-
ing TO do so, he never would come to settle
ment, and becoming confident that her de-
mand would likely remain unsatisfed she
swore out the warrant, charging him with
embezzlement, on which he was arrested. He
appeared before Judge Smell and gave bail for
his future appearance. Mr.. Coyle has hitherto
borne an unblemished reputation in this COM
munity, and, 1t is to be hoped, can relieve him
self from the odium of this charge.
