MARRYING A CORPSE.

The Plot of a Mdine Justice to Secure a PEN
siom-A Willing Wido.o United to an Er-
Soldier IN HIS Coftn-1 Startling Story.
Augusta Me. Special.
The most weird and sensational plot ever
constructed by writer of fiction can not
exceed in interest or strangeness the story
of actual occurrences of an obscure Maine
town, thirty miles from the railroads, and
now almost inaccessible on account of the
condition of the highway. For over half
century the little village of Appleton has
counted among its inhabitants the family
of Robbins, to which Samuel Robbins, born
ffty-one years ago, belonged. When the
war of the rebellion broke out Robbins joined
the union army and fought bravely for his
country. In the service he contracted dis
eases which have made him an invalid for
many years. After his discharge from the
army he married a woman commonly known
as ''the Widow Fossett," although she was
divorced and her former husband was still
alive. For a long time after their marriage
Robbins and his new wife, and Fossett, her
old husband, continued to occupy the same
house, living on terms of the greatest init
macy. Henry Fussett, a son of the widow
by her first husband, also lived with them.
After time Henry married and brought
home blooming young country girl as his
bride. She found the relations of the family
a little too close to suit her ideas, and in
duced Henry to set apart for his mother
small piece of land, to build on it small
house, and to deed the whole to the lady,
Robbins and his wife went to the new house
to live, while Fosset remained with his son.
Robbins owned a few acres of land adjoining
the piece decided to his wife, and he soon
began to poster her to transfer her interest
to him. She refused, and Robbins was so
angry about it that five or six wears ago he
cleared out and went to live with his broth
er, Noah Robbins, leaving the old lady to
shift for herself About year afterwards
Mrs. Robbins died, but not until she had
sold the land for $4,000 or $4,000 and given
the money away; SO that Robbins should not
get it.
Now comes the most startling part of the
story After Samuel B. Robbins went to
live with his brother, Noah, steps were taken
TO secure for him pension, to which he was
entitled The first trial was not successful
but after the arrearage act was passed anoth
or trial was made. This time the case was

peace, locally known as Squire Chester Pease

contented friend, hoe your row in this gen

and then come back to California and thank
the benefactor who gave you the most useful
lesson you ever learned; who taught you,
namely, to know when you were well off -
He would come back, and give thanks with a
mighty thankfulness that he was allowed to
do so. If this average California croaller
could only be made once to understand the
greatness of privilege that he enjoys three
times day in the simple matter of food, he
must, out of pure grace of heart deem him

no suspicion of his bigamous tendency were
entertained by his employers. The story of
Tyler's desertion was told by Mrs. Tyler No.
1 as follows: After their marriage she con-
tinued to reside at her old home. In the
fall Of 1876 she joined her husband for a
brief trip, he at that time being connected
with Chicago house as travelling salesman.
The nearness of the approach of an interest
ing event necessitated Mrs. Tyler's return.
Her husband took leave Of his wife with
much apparent regret, and provided her
with the necessary ticket and money to reach
home. From that time until yesterday she
never saw him. Once she had heard from
him. Last Friday she learned that he was
residing in this city, and she came here i'm
mediately. Mrs. Tyler said that soon after
her marriage her suspicious were aroused by
the too evident intimacy of Tyler with a
young woman named George Tabs, who soon
afterward disappeared from east Saginaw.
It now transpires that Mrs. Tyler No. 2 for
merly bore that name. The first Mrs. Tyler
has secured the services of lawyer, and a
suit for bigamy is among the probabilities.

This afternoon when Charles Tyler entered
the office of the chief of police, he was met
by lady of 26 holding by the hand bright
little girl of 8. The lady claimed to be Mrs.
Tyler. AS Ellen G.. Richards she had been
married to Tyler at East Saginaw, Mich, in
1874 The child was the result of the union.
What made the matter more embarrassing
for Tyler was the fact that only few doors
from the police station resided Mrs. Tyler

Later, however he acknowledged the first
marriage, but asserted that he procured d.

BUTLER.

The friends of Buffers candidacy for
the presidency are. in a quandry at
present. They don't know just where
they are, and what to do. Statements
as to the Generals Intentions are con-
ficting, and as nothing official has been
given out, everything is in dead calm.
THE ENouIRER has been for Butler for
the presidency ever since his name was
first mentioned in that connection, and
the action of the democratic convention
but increases the desire of this paper to
see him make the race. Eow he can do
otherwise than remain a candidate, after
accepting two nominations it Is rather
difficult to see; but politics may be q
little too deep for the editcr of this paper
to understand, and Butler may be per-
fectly satisfied that he is justified in
throwing over the two or three millions
ofshonest ,workingmen who supported
him for president, before the old parties
had their convention but 1t is to be
hoped be; does not. A.ss Sssss 3
By this time next week there will
probably be some definite information to
work upon, and then The ENQUIRER will
say what it thinks will be the best thing
to do in November and will begin to
touch up Messrs Blaine and Cleveland.
