w. w. Lewis Defended,

Some time ago, W. W. Lewis, of
Delaware City was published in several
papers amongst them this paper as
having absorbed and left not only his
wife unprovided and uncared for but
owing sundry bills to different per-
sons,
Mrs Lewis feeling somewhat ag-
grieved over the reports that have been
put in circulation, writes az follows to
the REPUBLICAN, requesting us to cor
rect the statement referred to:
When my husband left Delaware 1t
was his intention to try to procure a
situation that would enable him to pay
off the last dollar Of his indebtedness,
He was at the time and had been for
six months previous in delicate health,
and as matter of course we became
distressed at his continued silence, and
thought it advisable to make inquiry
through the papers for him, expecting
truthful information. We have no rea.
son to suppose that his name was regis.
tered, that report being as like to be
untrue as others.
First then, he never was employ ed
by Barker " Co, as may have been
seen by tho Philadelphia Reco rd but,
by O. II. Mark & Co., To this firm he
owes a trife.
He also was employed by r. E.
Smith, of Coatesville, but does not owe
him $3.50, alone in Delaware City, be-
sides small bills in other places. l
have in my possession letter in Mr..
Smith's own handwriting, dated May
23rd, 1882, in which he says Mr.. Lewis
Indebtedness to him in all is $3.50, for
which he says he will never press him.
1t is a pity our friend who has a point
to gain by bringing him in an abscond.
ing debtor, was not better posted before
he went TO 80 much trouble. | hope he
understands that he might get himself
into trouble by publishing such false
hoods as the above named.

NOG stDOc" FaIlOws.

Several days ago an article was pnb,
lished in the REPUBLICAN to the effect
that a veterinary surgeon, familiarly
known as "Doc," got into trouble with
a young man from Lancaster, was
severely chastised, and during the me,
lee received black eye. Many per-
sons who read the article supposed it
was DR.. George Fallows, who was for
merly located in this city, but now sta
toned at Chester, and went under the
cognomen of "Doc." For the informa
tion of those who were thus impressed
and in justice to Mr.. Fallows, we will
state that he was not the person alluded
to, but resident surgeon here, as the
article plainly stated, "a veterinary
surgeon of this CITY,"

A Babe Thrown InIO the Brand dy
wine.


Adespatch from West Chester, dated
on Wednesday, says that the mystery
relating TO the finding of young child
in the Brandywine some days ago has
been solved by The arrest of a Colored
woman named Mary Stevenson. 1t
will be remembered that the jury of
inquest found that the child was a
white one. Officer Jones, of the West
Chester police, did not believe this and
at once set to work 10 find the mother.
He got reliable clue which led to the
arrest. When taken before Squire
Russell on Wednesday night the woman
confessed the crime, stating that she
threw the child into the Brandy wine
on August 11th, as she was returning
from the Almshouse, where it was
born. She says that the reason for
committing the crime was to relieve
herself of the circumference aud avoid
the SCOTS of her acquaintance. While
at the Almshouse she was known as
Sallie Thomas. She will be held for
trial upon the charge of infantcide.
The child was about two weeks old.
The guilty mother is about 20 years old
and unmarried.

That King street Nuisance.

tOr Jno hbfUbLIUAHs
Your issue of 26th ultimo brings a
publication to my notice under the title
of q "King Street Nuisance" COM
planning of a serious annoyance by the
colored band, that practices in the 3rd
story of the Capelle Building. The
parties evidently are not actuated by
any semblance of truthfulness, cOnse.
quent upon that, the real fact is their
preiudice, not so much to the "band's
rehearsal, " as to the color of the men
composing the band. Some parties
have been very officious for some time,
collecting subject matter to make the
band Objectionable, and, having failed,
this can only be classed as an outbreak
from a prejudicial tortiioation, the
magazine has exploded before they got
enough in 1t to make their point on
the band.
