The stories which were sent to the daily
papers of the country few weeks ago in
regard to the life, death, and alleged
princely fortune of Mr.. and Mrs. Linus
w. Dexter of Vineland, N. j., of Wards
boro and South Newfane connection, were
a good illustration of the unreliability of
ali this class of "good story matter which
goes out to the sensational press. The facts
were that Mr. and Mrs. Dexter had lived
in Vineland for many years in their own
individual way. They had no young folk
about them, their peculiarities became ex-
aggerated and they were eccentric in their
ways of life. BY the unceasing practice of
New England thrift and rigid economy
I they had acquired a sum of money which
probably amounted to $4,000. When Mr..
Dexter died last February he left his money
to his wife, and when she died a few
months later she left 1t to Populist edl-
tor at Vineland, save only few small be
quests. So much was fact. All the rest
was fiction or establishment added by
some newspaper writer to make out his
story to gil his space in the newspapers at
so much a column.
