The Blonde and tho pude.

The Blonde and tho Dude.
SEDALIA, Mo-, March 3.-Sedalia'
upper-ten society is rent in twain over the
departure of Mrs. Lettie Hogue Daily.
the wife of Mr.. Al Daily, travelling sales
man for the wholesale grocery house Of
John Daily, of this city. in company with
a telegraph operator named Willard s.
Burrows, who, until Jan. 3 last, was en-
ployed in the Missouri Pacific Railway
offices here. On March %, 1881, Mr..
Daily was united in marriage to Miss
Lettie Hoff, the adopted daughter of the
late Mr.. j. ii. Hogue, then one of Sc
dallas most prominent citizens. The
wedding was celebrated with great eclat,
and, owing to the high social position
held by the contracting parties. the list of
presents was unusually large and valuable,
among them being a house and lot given
the bride by her uncle, Mr.. Hogue. Prior
to this event Miss Hoff Hogue had at
tended one Of the female Summaries at
Lexington. Mo, from which institution
she was expelled for going buggy riding
with a married man and remaining until
A O'Clock in the morning. This fact was
called to Mr.. Dalby's attention by his
friends when they realized the extent of
his mfatuation, but he refused to heed,
remarking that be was doing the busi-
ness and would take the consequences.
The heroine in this tale of broken VOWS
and unballowed love is possessed OF re-
markable beauty, and because of this fact
has been a conspicuous figure in every
social gathering where she appeared
Being a pronounced blonde and dressing
with exquisite taste. her delicate com
plexion, regular features, aud sparkling
eyes made up a most attractive picture.
Last summer Mr.. and Mrs. Daily engaged
board with Mns. Copeland, and here it
was that the young wife fell in the way of
the tempter, in the person of w. S. Bar
rows. In appearance Barrows would be
taken for u or y years of age, but in re-
atty he is Al. In dress he was a typical
