the examination into the Schroeder.
Lsfsvrs tragedy at. Oakland, Mrs.
Schroeder must have been thus far .

bad woman. And her father, the Rev
ersnd Horatio Stsbbins. has evidently

srripg daughter il concerned. A few
years ago she married Schroeder against
his express will and repeated sdmonition,
and he forssvs her and took both her
and her husband to his generous heart.
And nov he inds her detected in follow.
Ing her natural bent Of psrvsrsensss,
coolly and decsitfully disgraeing hus-
band. father. children and all connected
with her. Yet her husband forsivss her
at once, and how eagerly does her father
also forgive her and take both herself
and husband to his sympathetic bosom.
Both father and husband seem to under
stand and appreciate hsr weakness, 9TH

influence over them both.

rsmorsslsssly gives over her partner In
