the house OF Simon Mead Sunday morn
inG, while the family was at church.
Miss Davenport, as she called herself
when she came to this place less than
a year ago. made her home with her
father, William Davenport. Although
she claimed to be a widow, she took her
maiden name, and supported herself by
dressmaking and going out to service.
She had not been long In the place be-
fore she made the acquaintance of Farm
er Mead and his family. and was engaged
by ann as a servant. She Is comely
woman. about forty years old, and has
very pleasing manners.
She worked herself into the good eraces
Of the Mead family. and Mrs. Mead
being old and decrepid. proposed t. her
husband that they adopt her. as they had
no daughters OF their own.
Mr.. Mead agreed to this. and the bar
gain was contaminated. they promising
to will her the house and lot in which

everything went well.
Mss Davenport at once set TO work to
gain the confidence OF the old couple by
putting new life into the heretofore dull
farm house. Old man Mead bought a
two-seated surrey and was seen on the
road so frequently with his newly
adopted daughter as to cause scandal In
the neighborhood.
Miss Davenport, finding things a
trifie slow, cultivated the acquaintance
OF young George Van Houten, OF Hack:
ensack. She persuaded Farmer Mead
to draw SIS in gold from Jersey city
bank for the purpose of lending Van
Houten money and to pay for certain
additions to the Mead household effects.
This money, together with 81 which
Mead held as treasurer of the local NJ.
j.. Church, was sewed up in the mattress
OF Meads bed for safe keeping.
Sunday morning two weeks ago while
the Meads were at church the house
was robbed, every cent OF the money
being stolen.
Last Saturday Van Houten and
Miss Davenport took a trip TO Hack
ensack. Van Houten drank too much
and indiscreetly displayed several TWEEN
ty-dollar gold pieces. The arrest OF tho
couple followed and they are now in the
Hackensack jail.
