Daughter Of the Con.
fedeTaey.

NARR2GAxsETT PIER. r. I. Sept.
1s.-Niss Winnie Davis, daughter Of
Mrs. jefferson Davis, died at noon 10
day at the Rockingham hotel. 10 which
place she came as a guest in the early
part Of the Pier social season.
She had been i'll for several weeks.
and a fortnight ago her ailment was
diagnosed as malarial gastritis. At
times her condition became very ser
ious, 50 that consultations Of physicians
were deemed necessary, bnt frequent
rallies gave renewed hope that she
would ultimately recover.
During tne past week. especially was
har condition considered favorable. and
il was thought that her removal from
the hotel woHld be possible in few
days. as the hotel had closed for the
season. leaving the patient and attend
ants practically alone in the house.
Last night. however, a relapse in
Miss Davis condition was noticed. and
throughout the night she lost strength
perceptibly.
This morning the physicians said that
the end was not far OF. and at noon
death came to end the suffering, which
at times had been intense.
Mrs Davis has watched unremit
tingly at her daughters bedside. and
she is now bowed with sorrow.
The physicians Of Mrs Davis report
she is holding up with great ealmness
in her affection, and no fears are at
present entertained Of her health yield
ing to the strain.

RICHMOND, Va, Sept. is.-Miss
yarina Anne Jefferson Dayis-Miss
Winnie, as she is known in the South
was born in the Executive Mansion of
the Confederacy. in this city, in June,
1864, and when she was an infant she
shared her father S prison cell and was
much petted by the officers at Fort
Monroe.
The first five years of her life were
spent in England. but she came back
to Memphis. Tenn. afterward. At a
very early age she showed a taste for
reading, and her parents directed her
mind with care. Her father was par
ticularly fond Of her preeoeity and
loved to read aloud to her and listen to
her wise comments.
The South climate did not agree
with the child, SO she was sent to a
boarding school at Carlsruhe, Ger
many. where she became proficient in
German and French. Later she went tc
Paris and studied music and drawing
progressing rapidly.
At the age of II Miss Davis returned
to her fathers quiet home. Beauvoir
Miss. and continued her studies under
her fathers direction She made hel
social debut in New Orleans soon aftei
her return from Paris as Queen of the
Mardi Cars Carnival Shortly after
ward she accompanied her father TO q
reception in Atlanta. Ga. where SHE
was introduced by General John B.
Gordon as 1.-The Daughter of the Con.
federacy sobriquet by which she
has been known by every ex Confed
crate.
The death of Miss Davis father or
December 8, 1891, occurred when SHE
was on second visit to Paris, and tn,
blow so shocked her that her life was
despaired of. She returned to Americf
and soon afterwards went with hel
mother TO New York to live, where sht
could better pursue literary career.
She has written since 1.-The VeileC
Doctor and ION Summer Seas,
two novels which had wide circula
tion in the South. When she was taker
i'll recently she was engaged on another
more pretentious literary work.
Miss Davis has, since her father
death, travelled extensively in Europe
and Asia and became one Of the mos
prominent women in the United States
The Van Buren press., 1898-09-24

NEW YORK, Sept. 1S.-News Of Miss
Winnie Davis death was received in
this city tonight. Members of the
Southern Society and of the local Con
federate Camp who were seen said
that a committee would wait upon Mrs
jefferson Davis at once and ascertain
her wishes in regard to the funeral ar
rangements. Until then no action
will be taken by the friends of the Davis
family in this city.
Mrs. Davis and her daughter have
made their home in New York for many
years, and widespread sympathy is felt
for the mother in her bereavement.
Mrs. Davis and Miss Winnie were in
seperable, and seemed indispensable
to each others happiness 1t was
owing TO her love for her mother that
Miss Davis broke her engagement a few
years ago with well known business
man of this state.
She could not bear the thought of
separation, and after mature consid
Grafton she decided to put aside the idea
of marrying and remain with her
mother.
In recent years Miss Winnie Davis
engaged in literary work and it is be
lieved that the long hours given up to
this pursuit undermined her health.
Friends sought to dissuade her from
overwork, but Winnie Davis was a
proud women and dreaded the thought
that in the years to come she or her
mother might become a burden to their
friends.
Therefore. she improved every hour
and although her health gave way, it is
said that she acquired a competence
which will, of course, revert to Mrs.
Davis.

WHITE RIVER JUNCTION.

During the storm here Sunday
night the cornicc of the Gates block
was torn Oft a large tree OH South
Main street was uprooted; one of
the democratic flag poles on the
park was snapped asunder and sew
eral windows in the Junction House
suffered damage. Monday morning
the telephone service was interrupt
ed on all the circuits except the Bur-
lington. Local electric wires were
down in several places.
At Hartford village the roof OF
the wooden mill received injuries
and shade trees were blown over.
West Lebanon, n. H., directly
opposite here, had limbs of trees
torn away, and flag staff laid low.
Old residents say it was the hardest
gale that has occurred here in twenty
years.
Monday evening at the perform
ance of "a Country Merchant IN
Gates Opera House, says the Land
mark, party of Dartmouth students
behaved too boisterously for the
comfort of other spectators near
them. Deputy Sheriff Hoffman
suppressed the disorder. When the
play was over the party followed up
Deputy Hoffman and his wife on
their way home. He made his way
into the gang and informed them
that there would be trouble unless
they behaved. They continued,
however, to keep on his track and
when on the hill attacked him.
When the conflict was over they
probably realized that they had
made big mistake and tackled the
wrong man, but didn't stop to repeat
the mistake.
