Baltimore, Nd, Aug. 26.-The death Of
Miss Ida v. Branch, aged ~twenty-three,
which followed a surgical operation at the
Maryland University Hospital yesterday.
has brought to light q singular romance in
real.life. She was the daughter of James
Branch residing near Smithfeld, isle OF
Wight. county, Va, and possessed extra
ordinary beauty, and vas besides . young
lady If culture aud refinement. She was
the belle of the village and had many ad-
mirers. Among othera who sought her hand
was q Mr.. Ferguson, the son offs neighbor-
ing farmer, to whom with the consent Of her
father Ida became betrothed. In January

of Miss Branch aroused a suspicion on the
part Of her father that the intimacy between
them had been Of an improper character,
and Mr.. Branch communicated his suspic-
ions to his daughter. The latter earnestly
denied the imputation. and solemnly pro.
tested that her intimacy had not exceeded
that ofthe s~tricteet prop arty. His suspicious
were allayed, but subsequently they were
again aroused, and Mis- Branch was sent to
her sister, Mn. Ferguson, at Charlottes-
willie. Tothis lady Ida made an equally
positive denial, but her physical condition
was such that her father deemed a medical
examination necessary. He visited Char
lotteaville, and the physician, after an eS-
animation, confirmed lis suspicious. Not
withs.anding this she again protested her
innocence, and . second examination BY
another physician revealed the presence Of
