elder Junius Brutus Booths relations
with Agnes Delaney mot "Agatha Della
noir," as they both haveit) and especially
In their implication that she was not the
lawful wife of the great tragedian who
was the father of Edwin Booth and
John Wilkes Booth. They are equally
mistaken in their assumption that the
son of the elder Booth and Agnes Booth
"went to the war and died of consump-
ton" Within few years ago Charles
Delaney, as he called himself, was
professor of bellies lettres in school at
Chester, Pa, and It was from him that
the writer learned the whole story of
his mothers marriage to the famous
actor, and was directed by him to the
grave in the old Cathedral cemetery in
Baltimore where her corpse was in
tered.
That burial ground has within the
past five years been obliterated by the
march of Improvement, and the spot
where the shoient tombs were made ia
now covefed with rows of dwelling
houses But when the writer visited il
