II is more than O year since the actors in
tho romance were in Richmond. There
was nothing in their behavior TO- create
suspicion or cause any attention 10 be paid
10 their actions, so it would be rather
unusual ii any one here remembered
them. -,
But strange, to say, this very thing did
happen, and Dispatch representative yes
terday saw no less than four people who
recollected some of the facts attending the
visit of Monsieur and Madame Cassigneul
10 Richmond. All of the statements, though,
90 10 corroborate the story of the woman.
Two gentlemen, as well known as any IN
the CITY. saw the carriage in which Cassig-
peal and Geneste were being driven up
broad street. The woman was running
alongside it with one foot on the step en-.
deayoring to get in. As soon as she would
put her hand on the door the negro driver
wonld reach over and strike her on the
back Of the hand with the whipstaf. An
other gentleman came along about this
time. and calling TO the hackman, asked
him what no meant by dragging and
striking q white lady like that. A police.
man came up and the carriage was stopped
and the woman let in TO avoid further
trouble.
