A TALE OF TWO CITIES.

MEMPHIS, November 10 "A deliberate
suicide WAS accomplished this afternoon
dy Mrs. Margaret Myers. The facts con-
nsctsd with the sad &lf-.s are as follows:
When the fever appeared here this Sum-
mer she fed the city, with her four
children. being accompanied by Colonel
John Donovan, who made world wide
reputation last year by abandoning his
wife and children, leaving them to die
by the scourge which swept SO many of
our people to the bourne whence no
traveller has not yet returned. II was
thought that Memphis would be freed
tho presencs of Donovan after his deser-
ton Of his family, but he returned when
it was safe to do SO. and even went so
far as to attempt Justification Of his
conduct. Public sentiment was, how
ever, 80 strong against him that he found
himself almost alone. Mrs. Margaret
MYERS, an sstimabls woman, had been
made widow by the plague OF last year.
and it was generally understood she bad
from $4,000 to $4,000 left her by her
husband. Donovan began paying his
respects to her and had progressed 80
far in his suit that. as hs stated, when
the fever appeared in July he left the
city with her and accompanied her to
St. Louis, where she with her family
sought refuge While there, it is stated
Donovan inveigled her into marrying
him. which be accomplished under the
pretsnce OF having her sign paper,
which he stated to her was her promise
to marry him at some future time. The
s..s NJ. Myara hoI nou
ovan's treachery was from friend in
St. Louis, who told her that Donovan
had remarked that he had made good
days work OF It by marrying widow
worth $13. 900 in cash. When she found
that she had thus bsen betrayed, Mrs
Myers upbraidsd Donovan who at once
took her to task, and gave her to under
stsnd he was husband and master. Ii
is not known what became of Donovan
after his marriage, only that by some
means he, it is stated, got possession OF
all his wiie's money. She returned to
Memphis with her children about ten
days ago, since which period she has
bsen very much depressed in spirits.
This afternoon, about two O'Clock, she
deliberately poured the contents Of can
set fire to them. In second she was en-.
velepsd in flames. and before assistance
could reach her had been burned in such
shocking manner that death came to
her relief at ten o'clock tonight. Just
before dying she called her children to
her bedside and tod them she had beer
driven to the desperate act by Donovan
who had disgraced her by marriage
and had afterwards robbed her of all hel
money; that they must go to him if they
wanted even dollar. since he had taker
everything from her. She made con
fession of the same nature 10 Rev
