the Train One D4y Truin Late the Next.
In January Lillian got to Richmond
to see Cluverius on the pretence that
she wished TO visit her Aunt Tunstan,
who was very i'll. In March she adopt
ed a very different ruse.
On the 10th Of March little Willie
Dickinson brought from the post
office letter addressed TO Lillian.
Upon reading n she exclaimed go,
Willie. why did you bring me this ?
Why did you not throw ii in the
river"
The letter falsely purported to be from
Miss -. of RichmOnd--s young lady
who was al the BruIngton Academy with
Lillian who wrote urging LILLIAN 10
come to the city and 90 with Miss IS
aunt Mrs. Herbert y to Old Point as
companion; promising that Lillian
should receive 80 per day for services I:
that she should have the use Of the
writer's wardrobe that the arrange
ment would be most agreeable, &c,
&c. She said that she had letter
also from the father Of Miss -,
urging her to accept the invitation.
This letter offered prospect of a
few weeks of pleasure for Lillian, and
good Mrs. Dickinson consented for her
to go. That was the 10th, and Lillian
arranged 70 be here the 18th. The letter
was very urgent that she must be here
on the 18th. Mrs. Dickinson lent Lii
han her reddish brown canvass clothes
bag to carry some underclething, extra
pair of shoes, &c.
THE NIGHT BEFORE THE START.
That night Miss Ella Kinney, 70 ung
lady near Lllian's own age, particular
friend Of hers, spent with Lillian At Mrs.
Dickinson's. To Miss Kinney she said
that she had premonition that some
thing horrible would happen before she
returned" and she told Miss Kinney
that she had = secret TO tell her; but
they were not alone before she left, and
Lillian did not reveal ii.
Before leaving she gathered out of the
trunk an sprcnfl Of letters. A few
she read and shed tears over; then
she flung the whole spronful in the fire,
remarking that something might happen
TO her and tina, she didn't care for hel
mother TO get hold of these letters.
Wednesday the llth she started ts

Cuverius arrived here Thursday
morning and went TO the Davis House.
Leaving his satehel and overshOes there.
he went to the barber-shOp under the
American Hotel-distant some 100
yards-and got shaved. 1t is claimed
by him that he neper wore moustache.
Lillian ought TO have been here the
night before him.
On this friday morning the Com
monwealth expects to show that he was
IN the American Hotel.
Lillian did not get to bed until after
3 A. NJ. and she took her breakfast III
her room.
THE NOTE AND ANSWER.
While she was eating her breakfast
colored servant named Hunt
came up from the Office and brought
her q note. The note was addressed TO
Miss Merton. She read ii, wrote an
answer at once, and gave it to Hunt,
and Hunt took II down TO the Office.
and it was given 10 the yellow boy"
who had brought the note TO Lillian.
Lillisn's answer las afterwards as
certainedl was as follows - ! will be
there as soon as possible. SO do wait
for me.
On the small scrap Of paper upon
which this was written there was no
other word no address f; no signature.
1t was. however, enclosed in q small
white envelope addressed IT. j.
Cluverius.
About halfpsst 10 O'Clock Lillian
came downstairs and passed through
the Office into Main street. She did
not have her clOthes-bag with her.
While out il is believed that Tommie
and Lillian visited Belle Isle.
About lis she returned to the hotel
and entered il by way Of the Office, IN
unusual thing for ladies to do.
At about 2 2. NJ. Of this day II is
certain that Cluyerius was at the Dime
Museum matinee, where the Chimes Of
Normandy was played.
SHE SENDS FOR THE PosTALs.
She ate dinner about 1:30, and soon
thereafter started to 60 out again as
before but servant who met her al
the head Of the steps showed her where
the ladies' entrance was, and she went
ont the ladies' entrance. When she
returned is not known. No doubt she
returned the same way. She was N
her room somewhere about S p. NJ,
when she called servant and asked
him TO buy two postal-cards. Fer thi'
purpose she gave him 25 cents. Hs
