wEALTn IN HUT.
Starved tO.Death, Possessing Thou
sands of Dollars.

sands of Dollars
Investigation has shown that old widow
Wilhelma Dietman, who was found dead
in the cornfeld, near her home, at Egg
Harbor City, N. j., had starved herself to
DEATH At least it is known that her death
was hastened by miserly habits and a sin
gularly stingy mode of living.
Widow Dietman was worth over $50, 900
IN stocks and bonds and other securities,
and she had quantity of other valuables
about her person, and hidden in the cabin
she called home, at the time of her death.
She had worn herself almost to the bone.
In fact, she had become a walking skele-
ton. Her one aim seemed to have been
to increase her already goodly store Of
riches.
The body was found just within the
boundaries of the corn field. 1t had been
her custom to repair to the field and gather
the ears of corn which formed her only
sustenance. She used to eat sparingly even
of these and creep back to her miserable
howell
1t was at first thought that the old wom-
an had been murdered. Close investiga-
tiOn showed, however, that the real cause
of her death had been heart disease. This
was undoubtedly augmented by the lack OF
food.
There had been a sad and a pathetic ro-
life. One incident in her life may, in great
measure, excuse the mode of living a miser
and estranged from all, which she had
adopted.
Thirty years ago, when she was young
and happy, her husband ran away from
Egg HarbOr with another woman, taking
their child with them. The wife was near
ly crazed over the loss of her child and her
husbands deception.
Since that time Mrs. Dietman has lived
the life of a miser and hermit, mingling
with no one and boarding up her money
until she was possessed of a fortune. Her
husband has never been heard from since
his disappearance.
When the little shanty in which she
passed the best part of her life-it is stu
ated in dense wood two miles from the
town-Was searched after her death, it was
found to contain but a few articles of
household use or comfort. There was no
bed, and only one chair, and no carpet on
the floor.
Under an old stand in pile of rubbish
was found papers and documents which
showed that the woman was worth for
tune invested in mortgages and stocks and
in large account with a Philadelphia
bank.
Among these papers were found several
letters, dated years back, notifying the
woman that she had been left several large
legaCies in Germany, her native country.
1t is believed that these letters were re-
piled to. A large quantity of valuable
goods-such as furs, dress material and
other clOthing-weTe found. The hut itself
was in a terrible state of filth.
For years the woman had subsisted on
food brought to her by the people in Egg
Harbor City and vegetables from the fields
in season. She never brought any grocer
les or provisions, and wore simply enough
clothing in winter to keep her warm.
After a reasonable time her wealth will
go to Egg Harbor City, and the common
wealth will benefit by her hoardings. No
trace has ever been obtained of her hus-
band or child, but il they can be found
they will receive her riches.

smaller than ever in the history of the
