Clinton, June 29.-From the little town
of Camanche, five miles south of here,
comes most pathetic story of love, dis
grace and abandonment. The facts in
the mater became known a day or two
ago, when pretty little girl baby was
left at night on the door step of the res
idence of Mrs. o. A. Nichols Of Ca
manche. The babe was attired in good
clothes and by its side was a bottle full
Of milk and two bundles of clothes. The
child was taken into the house and was
cared for. However, the matter was re-
ported to the city marshal, who COM
menced an investigation. Boarding
with Mrs Nichols was young woman
by the name of Ida Draper, dress
maker, who resided in Camanche about
month previous to the finding uf the
littel one on the porch. the dress MAX
er took considerable interest in the
child and her affection for the little one
attracted the members of the house
hold After careful investigation by
the city marshal, he learned most pa
thetic story OF the betrayal of a young
girl and the abandonment of an UNI
happy mother and her little babe. The
facts show that Miss Draper, the dress
maker, who showed such an attachment
for the child Is its mother. a few days
ago, John Gilmore was employed as d
farm hand by W. H. Draper. weil-to-
do farmer, who resides near Malone
Shortly after, strong attachment: grew
between Ida Draper and Gilmore. The
latter had the freedom Of the house and
was looked upon more in the light of a
member of the family than hired man.
He took the two daughters Of Draper To
church, parties and entertainments. 1t
was finally announced that Gilmore and
Ida We're engaged. Last fall Miss
Draper cana to Clinton, she SAID to
learn the dress makers trade. How
ever, before leaving home she made a
full confession to her sister and ii was
agreed that the condition of Ida be
kept from their parents. The girl made
her home here with a family by the
name of Mater. Her board and the care
for her child which was born II few
weeks ago, was paid for by Gilmore.
About a month ago, Miss Draper went
to Camanche and opened up dress
making shop. Two weeks later, Gilmore
disappeared and the Matters knowing
that they could no longer look TO him
for the support of the child. informed
the mother that she woula nave to take
the babe. 1t was then that the scheme
OF leaving the little one on the st-ps OF
the home where the mother lived was
formulated Miss Draper offered to
adopt the child a proposition which at
tracted considerable attention. But
when the facts became known. 1t was
ascertained why Miss Draper loved tbs
strange little babe with mothers love.
