Capt. N. +. Jordan, Of the schooner
Mary, gives additional particulars Of the
epsd,mic at Magdalen Islands. Two
months ago the son of q lighthouse
keeper at South Point, Amherst Island,
fell i'll. His disease was not considered
dangerous until other members of the
family were similarly affected. 1t was
thought TO be the grip. The MaIady
spread rapidly iuto the neighboring vii
iage OF Stang du Nord. and in less than
week ssven-eighths of the Inhabitants
were down. The disease had then as
9ned most malignant form. Deaths

tdat moro than 4, 900 men,
w6.een and children, were afflicted,
while the death roll had run into the
hundreds. The people became panic.
stricken and helpless.
The outbreak was at the opeuing OF
the fishing season, but as nearly every
one was affected the fisheries were en-.
tirely abandoned. The islanders depcnd
on the catch for food and supplies.
Their condition is simply deplorable.
Deaths ate now so frequent that the
dead have TO be Immediately buried
in the mcrest apology for a coffin. In
the vicinity OF Fox Harbor, Capt. Jordan
has seen upward of thirty families actu-
hllystarving, while others are satisfied il
they can get biscuit each as DAYS ra-
tious He visited one family named
Jameson, consisting of eight nc ,ple; four
are dead, the mother aud two children
dying, and the father, who is i'll. said
that excepting a little Indian meal, they
had not had food for two weeks. The
same terrible condition prevails on the
other islands, aud -Ak.s-.>.y.y.a,,--s
cine is exhausted. The Captain said un-
less food was immediately sent those who
survived the disease would starve to
death. The islands arc under the con-
troll of the Quebec Government. They
are private property, having been grant.
ed by the British Government to Rea,
Admiral Sir Isaac Coliip, and are now
owned by his nephew.

An Interesting will Case.

An interesting case and one of peculiar
complication was disposed Of by the
court in Allentown recently. When the
wife Of the late Peter Maury, OF West
Bethlehem. died two or three years ago,
she left will bequeathiny all her prop
erty, real or personal, to her husband,
and it was stipulated that after his death
the estate should revert to .our heirs, -
to quote the language of the document.
Maury married u second wife, and a
few weeks after the ceremony he was
taken sick with u fever and died.
His widow brought suit against the
heirs, Frank and George Maury and
Mrs. 9. Benner, for Il dover right in the
property, which was one-third of the
estate for life. The main question dis
cussed before the court was whether the
interest Of Peter Maury in the estate
was an absolute one or u life one only.
Judge Albright took the latter view of the
affair and rendered u decision in favor
of the heirs, one Of whom lives in Texas.
The property is valuable and is situated
in West Bethlehem. Before his death
Maury gave his wife check for $500 or
$500 which he had in bank.-Philadel-
