Isabella McWean, an elderly woman,
who has been living in the village OF Essex
Centre for the last thirty years, died last
week. IL was rumored that the old lady
was possessed of large amount OF money
and that she boarded every cent that she
obtained She was always very reticent
and never associated with any OF her
neighbors. After her death il was decided
to search her dwelling. Nothing unusual
was found until the searchers entered her
apartment, where, on pulling out the
drawers of bureau, they found
number OF purses filled with bills.
Bills were found in her trunk pinned
to the Innings OF her dresses, and also gold
amounting to SG6S i'm English soyereigns.
Together with the bills the amount found
was S2,36S. The searchers were about to
leave the apartment, when Mr.. Powrie,
one OF the party, felt some hard humps in
the bed, and, ripping the tick open with a
knife, he pulled out bag after bag OF silver,
which were thrown into u basket, and
when all was extracted there was as much
as one could lift. The money was taken to
the village, and q queer variety OF coins
was displayed. There were old Mexican
and Spanish coins not circulated in Canada
for over forty years. When all the money
was counted it was found that she was
worth about $4,000. Most Of this fortune
will 20 to John McWean, cousin OF the
old lady. who came from Scotland about a
wear ago
