THE AKR1DaE TRAGEDY.
No Blame or Fault Attaches to the
Brother of the Unfortunate Woman

w GAG4uo OF 4 du4C ATTACHES 70 Lno
Brother of the Unfortunate Woman.
Herndon, Ca, Jan 27.-Editor Morn
ing News: IN the MORNING NEWS of
Jan. 26, is published sad but sensa-
tional report of the insane conduct Of
Mrs. Stella Akridge at her boarding
house in Savannah on Jan. %, and her sui
eide in Macon on Jan. %. With her acts
and words in Savannah, the report con-
meets her young and irreproachable
brother, Raymond Sanford, who, at the
age of years, at the death of his father,
was taken into my family, and reared by
me, and Is now engaged in business at
this place.
Ills visit on the occasion mentioned was,
as usual, one of affection and assistance
to his sister, TO whom he was much at
taehed, but Of whose mental condition he
had no conception, not even when he re-
turned from the city without seeing her.
II she had been sane she would have been
shocked at the conception of perlidy in a
brother who had served her so well. But
while the brother is blameless and true to
blood and duty, the poor sister was
lost to reason, and criminal there
fore to herself only. She was not
cast out from friends and home /;
| for she was by birth connected with some
OF the most honored names in Middle
| Georgia; and among them she found open
arms and doors to embrace and receive
her. The writer had known her, by repu-
| tatIon mainly, from early girlhood, and
believes that the first shock to her mind
was received, and its equilibrium de-
/ stroyed by the death of her father For
her conversation about that sad event was
| anything but sane. And from that period
| TO her last tragic hour the sure evolving
| evidence of mental decay has been
seen III every significant act of her fitful
! lie. Doubtless, her marriage and re-
moval to New Orleans, and early aban-
! donment by her husband there, among
! strangers and homeless, was the culmi-
mating event which broke heart and spirit.
Her appeal for and to return TO her friends
reached her brother, who at once pro-
| cured means TO return her to her sister S
| home, in Florida. But homes, to occupy,
and friends to make her happy
before her marriage, and after
| she rejected by incapacity for con-
| tentment and quiet, preferring a
( desultory and changing life, with its
| short and uncertain employments. And
thus the measure of her disappointment
and sorrow was at last full; and heaped,
| ignorantly, with her own hands until in
| her was manifested that mysterious
! transmutation of human affection and
| passion, in which confidence becomes
distrust, and love becomes hatred with
desire TO destroy.
But close the brief notice of an un-
| happy, restless life.
Inc brother, who knew not the living
wreck of the sister he loved so we'll, has
the abiding satisfaction that he never
refused her want which he could

M'DoNALD IN A NEW ROLE.
He is Figuring as a Martyr Over in
Charleston.

Charleston.
Tillman's spy, Mcdonald, who made
himself conspicuous in Savannah for some
time, and who went from here to Charles
ton, is figuring as martyr there. He
claims to have been stabbed somewhere
and by some one few nights ago. The
question is being discussed in Charleston
whether he did it himself. AZ one time
it was stated that Mcdonald had been
stabbed and had killed his opponent, at
another that he had been himself shot.
According to the News and Courier it
seems that Spy Mcdonald was slightly
stabbed IN the chest early Sunday night.
TheStory which he tells is about as fol-
lows: He claims that he ran up on two
men with demi3ohn in Friend street. He
tried to take the jug from them for the
purpose of examining the contents, be-
ueylng that it contained contraband
liquor. He claims that in the scuffie
which ensued one of the men stabbed him
In the breast, near his official badge,
which he had previously displayed, and
that then his assailants escaped, he firing
five shots at them.
This is, in substance, the story told by
the spy, but the matter was reported TO
the police station, and was being investi-
gated by the department, but the officers
WOuAu nave HObnluB 10 say on Une matter
for publication. 1t is probable that it is
desired to keep the matter quiet until it
has been fully investigated.
The News and Courier did some inves-
tigation on its own account, however,
without being able to find any evidence to
substantive the improbable story told by
Mcdonald
Inquiry at all the houses in the neigh
borhood of the place at which Mcdonald
claims the assault was made on him and
at which he was supposed to have fired
five shots failed to find person who had
heard any shots at the time mentioned or
anywhere near it. Nobody had heard
anything of q seuf1e or disturbance of any
kind, and most of them were positive that
none had occurred under the circum-
stances claimed by the spy. Another
pretty well substantiated fact, picked up
during the course of the day, and one
vouched for by a gentleman who claimed
to have it straight, was that while Nc
Donald claimed to have fired five shots
only two chambers of his pistol were
empty
The injury which he has received is not
a severe one, but the full extent of it is
not known. One of the rumers afoat is
TO the effect that it was a mere scratch,
and that he had inflicted it himself in or
der to gain notoriety and to cause trouble
