ADAUGHTER OF FORTUNE
SAD STORY OF A BEAUTIFUL
STRANGER IN ALBANY.

A Child Born Out of Wedlock-The In
FAINT Deeded to Family Who Be-
friended Her-The Girl Afraid Of Her
Fathers VenResnce-She Leaves the
City for Other Fields.
ALBANY, GA, May 30-A sensation has
come to light in this city which is a start
ling revelation of the weakness OF woman
and the deviltry Of man. About eight
weeks ago a young woman arrived here
from Montgomery and made application at
Mrs. Hoods boarding house, on Broad street,
for rooms, stating that she was
sick. Mrs. Hood eyed the wanderer
for second and decided that
if she was not sick she soon would be, and
that she was a suspicious character. She
was refused admittance to the Hood house.
She finally found refuge with J. K. Smiths
family, who reside in the lifts Hall build
ing, at the foot of Broad street. She gives
her name as Mrs. Mary Smith, from Mont
gomery.
A DAUGHTER OF FORTUNE.
She was a woman of fine form, light blue
eyes, and golden hair, with fair skin, and
gave the impression that she was a daughter
of fortune and knew nothing Of the hard
ships of life She told Mrs. Smith that she
was a married lady. suffering with tumor
OF the stomach, and was travelling
under the directions OF q montgom-
cry physician to Valdosta, &C., where
she would be treated by an eminent special
list. Mrs. Smith is kind-hearted woman,
easily deceived, and thought 1t would be
nothing amiss to give the fair young Great
ure lodging for day or two 30 she could
rest up for her journey. But she soon found
out that she had been deceived, for q boy
baby suddenly made its appearance.
A CONFESSION.
The beautiful but hayward girl then told
her kind friend that she was unmarried, and
that II her father knew her condition he
would surely kill her, that she never knew
what it was to work, and that she had been
deceived by Will Smith, q railroad book.
keeper of Montgomery. She then begged
Mr.. Smith and his wife to secrecy concern
ing her trouble. All would have gone well,
but In a fit of remorss she attempted to take
her child's life before she was able to get out
of bed, by giving it morphine. A physician
was called and her purpose was thwarted.
Mrs. Smith says that she could not see her
leave with the child, and begged her for it.
DEED OF GIFT.
She finally gave the following deed to the
poor little fellow:
This is to certify that make J. r. Smith and
his wife deed OF gift TO my baby boy, and
that never will take nor allow it to be taken
from them. His name is ]. G. Smith. Now |

witness this 25th day of April, 1891.
MARY SMITH.
Witness: D. W. BROWN.
Mrs. Smith says that the girl took a Bible
oath that James Smith was the childs
father. The family doubts whether her
name is Smith, owing to the fact that she
received q registered letter from Harris
City, Ala. addressed to Miss Mary Lighton
She left the city on the Montgomery can
non ball train few nights ago, and the
child will probably soon leave for better

In Memoriam OF

In the great system Of our Creator man. like
the tender plant. must yield to the toaSh Of
time, and fade, and fall. and die The reflection
is solemn, and instead of questioning the pre-
rogative of God, 1t is far better to live in con-
slant preparation for the exit from this world
OF mingled JOY and sorrow TO that of eternal
happiness.
When the sweet infant-the mothers Jewel
and the fathers pride-is palsied by the un-
timely hand OF the Destroyer. thefe is an inex-
pressible Joy in the thought that the flower has
been transplaDted by the hand Of Goodness TO a
more cougenial cline, where the ignorance and
the Ills of this world are not al owed to enter.
There is no possibility of that spirit feeling the
least pain or sorrow.
When time has laid the chilling hand of death
upon the silvered brow" of an aged parent
many and bitter are the tears that fall as we
Hnger 10 teke the last Borrowing look at the
face we loved so we'll

was so fondly loved-so sweet and strong that
even the grave will fail TO blot out the dear re-

whom he cherished, to give up life's flower

weary-perhaps to those careworn and heart
sick with sorrow-but death was not welcome to
our dear one whose happy heart was blessed
with every precious gift OF human happiness.
He is dead-the light has fed from that sunny
eye and brow;
No longer will his voice be heard In accents soft
and low;
His pure white hands will nevermore smooth
cares dark lines away;
His earthly influence no more dread troubles
can allay.
He is dead-but well we know that there is a
God above,
God of majesty and power, of mercy, light
and love;
He has taken him to himself as one too good
for earth,
And we are left to mourn for his departed
worth. N. W. s.

he had been q sufferer from broken health
for several years, which recently began to fail
more rapidly, when sudden stroke Of paralysis
brought him to the fnal termination. He had
borne life's pains and trials patiently and un-
complainingly, and was conscious that his days
be OF short duration, and desired that death
would come to hin without premonition. His
boon was granted, and thus he faded from our
earthly vision. The Anwise Father, who alone
knoweth what is best for ALL in removing our
loved one, has severed another home tie though
doubtless the blow was dealt in love, for he is q
