Ilcuus
Nellie BY, in New York World.
In my travels through Virginia 1 met a gen.
tleman who has been the lifelong friend OF
Ameli Rives- Chanler. He told me a Dit of her
life. which is very interesting. Mr.. Rives is 3
civil engineer for the Panama canal, and Amelie
is the pride Of the family. They all bowed TO
her superior genius, and she ruled the roost'
az home. In some of her travels Amelie Rives
saw John Mccullough, and became possessed of
a passionate admiration for him. She managed
TO be in several towns where he played, and ct
last was rewarded by making his acquaintance.
IL is said that a closer acouaiutance famed her
admiration into a warmer regard, and that at
last John Mccullough went to her Virginia
homestead to spend his vacation.
If you had read the book which made her
known 20 the public said my fellow-traveler,
you can judge what a happy time they had.
He undoubtedly admired her and she more than
admired him. While he was there she painted
a life-size oil portrait of BIN, which is very
artistic. just after this he became insane. and
the shock to AmeIies peculiar temperament was
very severe. She became more eccentric than
ever, and after his death she decorated the bed
side in which be slept with a full assortment of
angels. They said then that she had cherished
everything that he lad used, even saving q half
smoked cigar, and locked herself for hours in
the room with his portrait. Then she wrote q
little play entitled Mad as a March Hare and
played the leading role In it herself. She acted
