SAD END OF A ROMANCE
Ralph Hewitt Shot Himself For
His Buried Love.
GOULD NOT SURVIVE HER DEATH

The Youth Had Left Elgin, Ill, Where Hit
Sweetheart Lived, to Seek His Fortune.
Was a Clerk in the Mount Vernon Hotel,
Washington.
New York, May 20. 1.-THE body Of a
young man sitting upright in a chair at
J~aokson's Pavilion on the beach was
found early in the morning, with a bull
let hole in the head. He was identified
as Ralph d. Hewitt, a clerk at the
Mount Vernon Hotel, Washington,
whose mother lives at No. no West
lU4th street, New York"
Such was the message flashed over the
wires from Atlantic City, N. j., to the
newspapers all over the country. 1t told
a common story enough-the sad tale of
self-destruction-all too familiar. but
there was n chapter of romance in the
life thus snuifed out that range
could not know.
1t was a hand nerved by grief for a
buried love that had sent the fatal bull
let on its mission of death. When the
body of young Ralph Hewitt sat upright
and rigid in the bright sunlight of the
perfect May morning, preparations were
going OF in a handsome house in the
far off city of Elgin, for the burial of a
fair young girl. They had been sweet
hearts, these two, the daughter of rich
Judge Battsford of Elgin and young
Ralph Hewitt. Their story reads like a
a page from some old time romance
Ralph Dudley Hewitt was born in Ell
gin, ILL.,, about Is years ago. After ex-
tended travels Ralph went to Elgin aud
began work in the big watch factory
there. He had not been there long
when he met the daughter of Judge
Battsford, who was just home from
school on a vacation. The couple fell
deeply in love, but did not become n
gagged, for he had his way to make in
the world, while she was rich.
Impatient to get ahead by rapid
strides young Hewitt found work in the
watch factory too slow, and leaving Elgiu
he went to try his fortunes. Then he
got work as Il clerk in the Mount Vernon
Hotel. A week & u dispatch came to
him that Aloisia BaCtsford was dead.
She had succumbed to an attack of
heart disease, induced by over-study. In
LlSln she was Snu,Yn Us a girl OF rare
beauty and mUa.-al accomplishments.
On LelrlUg OF 4er death Hewitt went
to AlauJlC Guy, and o a room at the
Girard House. The rest is known.
Two weeks ago young Hewitt's mother
and sister Maude, a beautiful girl OF ~,
took a fiat at No. ITO West 104th street.
Mrs. Dennison, Mrs. Hewitt's mother,
lives with them. A reporter called
there and saw Mrs. Dennison, who was
nearly Frustrated with grief. Two tele-
grams lay on the table, and a box on
tanning the young mans letters to his
mother and sister lay on the table beside
them. Mrs. Hewitt and Maude had
gone to Atlantic City to claim their
dead.
"He wrote home only day before yes
terday," said Mrs. Dennison, ''and
spoke t~ouchingly of AloIsia. Oh, his
sorrow was greater than we knew and
the poor woman sobbed as she thought
of their loss. "He was not 49," she
said, and so good, and true, and manly.
He was handsome and whole souled.
Everybody loved him"

merous TO mention. Our next stop is at
Wilmington, North Carolina, where we
changed cars again, which was at ten
minutes past ten, P. NJ. After half an
hour of patient (4) waiting, we started on
again, wishing that daylight would make
its appearance soon, so that we might be
able to see something more of the sur
rounding country. And now we are at
Charleston, S. T., where we make another
change OF cars, we are just three hundred
miles west of Trenton. We go on again,
through pine forests, great deep jungles,
marshy places, swamps, &C., and now as
we are nearing the South, we note the
great change of climate. The scenery,
too, has become changed; the produce
tons, also. The manners, language, dress,
&C., OF tho people down this way, are so
different, and we can now view the mis-
tletoe, cypress, magnolia, palm, Spanish
moss, palmetto, and we begiu to think
that Summer has again returned, for we
realize that our clothing is entirely too
warm. When we left r we were
wrapped in Winter garments, and now we
have to lay aside our warm clothing and
don some thinner ones. And we find,
toe, that "Oid Time" has had set back
of one whole hour We are indeed hav-
ing wonderful experience in this tip
to the ''Summer land of Flowers"
From Charleston, we travelled westward
as we'll as southwark, on the Charleston
and Savannah r. r., and now as we reach
Savannah, Georgia, we again prepare our
selves for another change of cars, aud
from here we take the Florida and West

to give tired nature good rest.
