SPRINGFIELD. Mass. Juno 27.-A strange ex-
perience has been that OF Mrs. George Il.
Allen. who. thirty years ago. young. pretty,
and happily. blessed with worldly goods. was
married amid much ceremony. For years her
husband continued In the drug business here,
and finally moved Down East Several chill
dren were born to the happy couple as tho
years went by. About twelve years ago Allen
mysteriously disappeared. no one knows
whittier. He started away one morning on q
business trip. and was never again seen by his
family.
Seven years went by. years frelghted with
much unhappness for the deserted wife and
dead, she married an aged but Wealthy man.
Life went happily on until u few days ngo.
when tho woman was startled at receiving a
letter from Taunton asylum that her long:
lost husband was there insane. He had lost all
knowledge, OF his whoreabouts. and his wan
dernRs. blank to himself will probably never
be known. Tho woman has left her second
husband. pending proceedings for divorce,
which she has instituted against the husband
whom all these years she thought dead.
