WON BY A DAY
His Lawsuits Won, Quscksnbush Lay Down
and Died

SAN FRANCISCO. March 1.-When
Thomas M. Quackenbush proved that
he had not married second time his
life work was ended and his vitality
was exhausted. The final Judgment in
his favor in the litigation with MIS-
Nancy A. Abbott was filed on saturday
last. This morning he died.
In September last Quackenbush. &c
years old and breaking down in health,
learned that Mrs Nancy A. Abbott, a t
whose boarding house he had lived. was
declaring herself his wife. He deter
mined to prevent any of his property
reaching her, and Immediately brought
suit to have it adjudged that she was
not his wife She retorted with suit
for maintenance. The attorneys for
Quackenbush hastened the suits to trial
that Judgment might be obtained be-
fore he should die. II was the strangest
race ever run with death. In each of
the two suits judgment was given in
his favor. The last paper was filed on
Saturday. This morning about l o'clock
death came. Quackenbush had won by
a day. ff
Quackenbush had the genius for fin
ance. He arrived in San Francisco in
ls49 and left the vessel about o'clock In
the evening without one cent to pay for
a bed But he had a package contain
ing $50 copies of the New York Herald
of the date of his departure. He cried
the papers on the streets and before he
sought a place to sleep he had sold
every paper for 81 per copy. From this
$3.50 he gradually increased his capital
TO 5000 600, all of which he conveyed to
his daughter, Mrs Swortfinger .
