COL. CROSBY PARTED
FROM WIFE 27 YEARS
Surrogate's Ruling Discloses
Strange Married Life Of
Civil War Hero.
NO LEGAL SEPARATION
Decision Holds She Had Her
Own Residence at Time
Of Death.

The usual rule that wife's domIclie
is the home of her husband when she IL
not separated from him by any legal de-
cree was rejected yesterday by Surrogate
Cohalan in an opinion disclosing that Col.
John Schuyler Crosby OF 206 West Fifty
second street, hero OF many battles in the
civil war and OF Gen. Clusters Indian
fights, and his wife. Mrs. Harriet Van
Rensselaer, Crosby. had been living apart
for twenty-seven years at the time Mrs.
Crosby died In 1911.
Mrs. Crosby. who was the aunt Of How
ard Townsend. the lawyer and mother OF
stephen Van Rensselaer, Crosby. broker
at 26 Exchange place, lived at Charleston,
W. Va. at the time of her death. She
was heir to $500. 600 under the will Of her
cousin. Miss Maria Campbell. who died q
few months before her When her estate
came before the New York transfer tax
appraisers counsel for the State Comp
troller contended that, although Mrs.
Crosby had made her home in West vir-
ginia for many years her legal residence
was in New York because her husband
lived here and that the estate was subject
to tax. Her son as the executor under
her will asked Surrogate Cohalan to de-
eide that the $500, 900 IL not taxable be-
cause his mothers legal residence was In
West Virginia.
In decision yesterday exempting tho
estate from the tax Surrogate Cohalan
said that for many years during his mar
ried life Col. Crosby was an army officer.
After retiring from the army he went to
Florence, Italy, as United States Consul
remaining there from 1876 to 1852. His
wife did not accompany him abroad and
he did not return home during that time.
When he returned here in 1854 he was
appointed Governor OF Montana. then .
Territory
Mrs. Crosby first established a separate
residence In 1884. the Surrogate says, and
for some years occupied a house she bought
in Morristown, y. j She went to Charles
| ton, w. Va, thirteen years ago The only
| time Col. Crosby saw his wife in all this
period was when he went TO her home to
attend his daughters wedding. The Sur
| rcgate says there is no evidence that Col.
Crosby was ever guilty OF any conduct
which would have entitled Mrs. Crosby TO
a legal separation or divorce. and no sepa-
ration agreement was ever signed.
Whatever may have been the cause OF
! their separation, IL was as effectual as X
| by a legal decree" said the Surrogate.
THE publicity incidental TO a jude sep
aration might well have induced a woman
of delicacy and refinement to have re.
| Trained from applying for It, The fact
! that she didn't make such application did
| not deprive her Of her right to maintain
a separate residence"
