SOLDIERS BURIED HER.

The end OF the chapter of the life oi
Elizabeth Petit Cutler, bohemian and
woman OF good heart, has the smack OF
the spirit of the true romance.
Friday afternoon she was buried in
the lot OF Lee Camp, Confederate Vet
ersns, in Riverview cemetery, Rch'
mond.
Found dead iD bed, dying without
the kindly clasp of friends hand, dy-
ipg penniless and almost 10 rags, Friday
pet" Cutler, as she was known thirty
Eve and forty years ago, was saved
from pauper's burial.
She was the woman who spent hun
dreds and, perhaps, thousands, OF dol.
lars during the war giving comfort end
cheer to Confederate prisoners at Ell
mira, N. Y, and other Union prisons.
But when the story was printed,
about q year ago, of her being found
10 almost starving, along came gen.
tlemsn In gray and showed letter he
had received from her when he Was 8
prisoner for love of his Southland, and
it contained not only words OF cheer,
but assurances OF help quickly forth
coming.
Lett an orphan 10 Charlottesv lie,
che was adopted by an aunt, and bei0g
q child OF genius, wrote a book that
made money for the Appletons 10 New
York and made her fame and fortune.

Of the day in the g'eat city oil the
North. Wheh the war came she had
TO stay with her husband in the hostile
country, and all that was Left for her to
do was to help the prisoners within her
reach. Her husband allowed her
plenty of money 10 spsnd in this way.
and che spent II. and often risked her
life in eoi0g through the lines on errauds
OF love and mercy.
Lett young widow, she surrounded
herself with court Of brilliant men
and women Of Bohemia, and spent her
fortune in q twinkling.
She burned the candle at both ends,
and after the Appletons had generous
ly given her pension to keep her COM
fortable, she began to make the fight
70 regain her lost position 10 the liter
airy world. II was too late.
The Appletons failed and thepeDsion
was gone.
To Richmond she came in poverty,
The brave old fellows Of Lee camp

much for her.
