oils.
From the Toledo. Blade,
For some months past the papers
thruus hout the country have been pub
fishing the following item, which was set
ahoat by The Indianapolis Journals:
"a Boston giil and her mother, who
are stopping at one of the hotels in this
CITY, came West in search Of a young
German, to whom the daughter became
very much attached while spending y
few months in Europe with her parents
some two years ago. The last they heard
of the young man was that he had come
to Indianapolis. He is said to be poor
but we'll educated, and the parties in
search of him are very wealthy"
1t was the good fortune of Blade re-
porter, who happened to be at tie depot
Just before the departure of the Western
train which carried the above mentioned
party on their journey toward lndianap
Oils, to become acquainted with the young
lady and her mother. The young lady
is Miss Mary NJ. Cochran, Of bos-
ton. She is a remarkable fine looking
person apparently twenty-one or two
wears of age She was very stylishly
dressed, and presented a most interest.
ing appearance. Through the courtesy
of one of the railroad officials who was
acquainted with them, an introduction
was obtained, and very pleasant in
terview followed. 1t seems that two
years ago this spring Miss Cochran, &C
compsnied by her mother and a
number of friends from Boston, went to
Europe to spend the summer. During a
briet stay in Carisruhe, Germany, Miss
Cochran became acquainted with young
German named Charles A. Brandon
burg. He was young man OF great
ability well educated and of respectable
parentsge, although they were quite poor
rhe many noble qualities OF heart and
head won the young Americans heart,
ard she tell desperately in love with hun.
This feeling was mutual, and, during the
interviews, the young man related the
condition OF things ut his fathers house,
The family WAS in the hands OF cruel
house, Sner, who not only owned the
small house in which they lived, but was
also proprietor oi the mill in which the
father, son and brother earned their
scanty pittance On account of some
difficulty which had occurred some years
before, this man, whose name was Stein
MANN, cherished deadly hatred against
the Brsndenburg fanny. So deep was
this hatred tha, he would do everything
in his power TO keep them down, al
though some of the greatest improve
msnts in his mill had been made by
elder Brandenburg, He so exercised his
authority that they were kept in poverty
and every effort they made to better
their fortune was overthrow by the re-
lentless land owner. At last Charles,
the eldest son; determined TO come to
Amer Gu, and try to do something to help
himself and family in this country.
Such was the state OF affairs when the
Young American lady knew him first
and loved him Two months after they
plyhte their trcth, and Brandon burg
sailed for America. Soon after Miss
Cochran returned to Boston. a CORES
pondence WAS kept up Tor over u year
following their separation. Then the
Young German, who had been working
IL New York and Philadelphia, set out
Tor the West and the letters came less
frequently, and finally there were none

lady, who WAS pretty and accomplished
to have won the hearts oi u score
of admirers, even in rigid, upright cd
Boston, remained true ~ her first love.
Whan she heard no more OF her lover,
she WAS almost crazy, and a. the time
grew ON, her suspense became almost in
AT last, about two weeks
ago, she learned through roundabout
way that the object of her affection WAS
in Indianapolis. Slender rs the hope
was she determined to ascertain the
truth Of the report. So she and her
mother left Boston for Ind annapolis.
Miss Cochran said that she was bound
to find her lover, and if he cherishes the
same sentiments he did two years ago,
when they last met, and seven months
ago when she received her last letter,
there would be marriage, and she
laughingly invited her interviewer to he
invitation he accepted at
once. Assisting the persevering damsel
and her mother on the train, and wish
ing them success, the reporter watched
the westward bound train roll away,
hoping they would not be disappointed
in their search.
The wish was gratifed, and the Young
couple who loved each other devotediy
are now united for life, q, the following
