Year: 1872

II.
II was while the lady was stopping in ST.
Paul that we learned the above particu-
lars. The story of her life after separat-
ing from her husband (for she was the
divorced wife alluded toy she briefly told.
She had married again, and the annuity
settled upon her had ceased. Her Sec
ond husband, while an educated gentle
man, was poor, and his death which oc-
Cured a year after their marriage, left
her and the two children In INDECENT cir
cumstances. Left almost penniless, she
scarcely knew what to do. She had
heard through Others in Rio Janeiro,
where her first husband aswell known,
that be had settled down at Fort Garry,
British America. Convinced of his un-
utterable love for her, and knowing how
groundless were the suspicious which
had caused their separation, she deter
mined to seek him out, and with her
children fall at his feet and impIore him
to take her back to his bosom. With
this determination she disposed of what
little she had, and commenced her long
journey from Brazil to British America.
She arrived here, as has been stated, in
October, 1869, and after resting few
days pursued her journey to Fort Garry
in search of the husband of her youth.


In giving the above facts at the time,
we promised our readers that if we ever
learned any further particulars in regard
to this "o'er true tale" which seemed
more like tale of fiction than a nara
tive of facts, we would give them the
benefit of what we should learn.


Over two years have passed away, and
the circumstances had been entirely for
gotten, and would probably never have
been recalled, but for the fact that few
days ago there arrived in this city by
the train from Herman, gentleman and
lady with two children, who engaged
rooms at one of our leading hotels. The
gentleman had a number of acquaintan.
ces in the city, upon whom be called,
to all of whom he stated that in compa
ny with his wife and children he was on
his way to England, to settle down on
| his patrimonial estate, never more to
wander. He was no longer the gloomy,
morose man which st. Paul acquaintaces
remembered in former years. His coun-
tenance was wreathed in smiles and his
every word and action gave evidence
that everything was we'll with him and
that he was more than contented with his
lot.


The second day after their arrivals in
the city the gentleman and his wife call
ed at this office and inquired for copy
of the Pioneer of Oct. "a, 1862 The
copy was furnished him, when he called
attention to the article from which the
above facts are condensed, and stated
that as we had predicted, there was Sc
quel to the narrative. The long separat-
ed husband and wife were again united,
and with their children were on their
way home to old England We endeav-
ored in vain to obtain some additional
facts concerning their meeting but be-
yond the fact that the lady with her chill.
dren had remained for many weary
months at Fort Garry awaiting his re-
turn from one of his long trips into the
wilderness, that he finally returned about
the time Ct the Riel rebellion, that eve
rything was explained and they were
again married, we could learn but few
particulars. After their second marriage
the husband commenced at once to settle
up his business, with view to leaving
the Red River country. The unsettled
state OF the country during and after the
Riel rebellion delayed him, but having
finally closed up everything they bade a
last farewell to the far Southwest. and
commenced their journey home. They
arrived in st. Paul few days ago, and
it would be hard to find on either side Of
the Atlantic happier family. They re
manned here several days, during which
the gentleman settled up all his business
in St. Paul, and buta short time ago left
to pursue bis journey to England. By
this time they are upon the ocean. AT
his request we delay the publication of
the facts connected with his somewhat
romantic history until he had left Amer.
lean soil forever. The name by which
he is known in Manitoba and st. Paul
was an assumed one, and it is not proba-
bic that any one in the Northwest will
ever learn who among the wealthy gen
tlemen of England is the subject os this
article.
