A PENSION OFFICE ROMANCE.
Reunited by the Commissioner After q SEP
aration of Twenty Five Years

Reunited by the Commissioner After q Sep
aration of Twenty-Five Years.
After a separation of twenty five years. dur
ing which they each thought the other dead,
Geo. W. Davenport and his wife Of Louisville
Pension Commissioner Raum.
The story is peculiar one and smacks Of the
romantic. Davenport and his wife were married
in Louisville on June 10, 1866, by the Rev. Lass-
renee Bax, but year and half later the husband
departed for the west to seek a fortune. Itseems
that shortly after Davenports departure he re-
ceived q letter from a friend conveying the
news Of his wife's death some time before and
stating that the body had been buried by rela-
tives.
The husband did not, of course. doubt the
authenticity of his friends announcement and
as he had no near relatives in Louisville did not
return.
Mrs. Davenport, failing to hear from her hus-
band, sought him high and low: for several
years and then sorrowtully arrived at the con-
clnsion that he was no longer living.
Davenport is a veteran of the civil war He
enlisted in company C Of the eighteenth Mis-
souri,. At Shiloh he was badly wounded.
After leaving Louisville he went to Texas. At
Fort Worth he served as deputy marshal
for four years. he was n deputy sheriff OF
Tarrant county for two years and served on the
police force of Fort Worth for three years.
During all this time he was receiving soldier
pension from the government, and to this is
due the discovery Of the fact that his wife was
still living. In 1889 Mrs. Davenport was per-
shaded by friends to apply for a widows petl-
sion.
When the application was placed on file the
pension commissioner discovered that the mar,
she represented as her deceased husband was
not dead but still alive and drawing pension

The death Of Justice Lamar removes one Of
the most widely known southern men in public

this generation, and he WAS gifted in
many ways He was q great student and
a man OF moods. He was subject TO periods OF
depression. when be would be absent-minded
and inattentive. Rising out of this he would
have corresponding periods of vivacity and
elevation Of spirits. When feeling his best
he charmed every one who came in
communication with him. His conversation
was then sparkling, full of wit and wisdom,
clever in repartee, entertaining and full Of a
peculiar fascination which liable to make
all who came under its influence his life long
admirers. He could charm any one. He was a
most devoted SUDDEN. OF literature. During
his youth he wrote some very pretty
poetry, but in his mature years ne gave that
up, or il he wrote al all kept it to himself. He
WAS not himself an author. but WAS familiar with
the best literature the world has produced and
ueugnted In the study OF literature. Ihllosoph-
ical studies were particularly attractive to him
and he was very familiar with the best thoughts
OF great men, modern and ancient. He had a
wonderful memory and could repeat passages
from authors unknown to others than
students like himself. He could repeat word
for word the speeches OF great orators which be

OF poetry on the end OF his tongue.
Speaking of him an orator, people gem
orally think only of his speeches in the House
and Senate. Those we're not his greatest. 1t

His military career was brief. but very
creditable. He served on the peninsular, and
was promoted to be colonel, but he had
a stroke of paralysis or something of
that sort which incspacitated him from
further service. He then was sent as
special envoy to Russia. After the war he
was professor of philosophy and political
economy in the University OF Mississippi and
later professor of law and in both places ne
