Admission to Her Hjsbands S.ck Chamber The News been dead and buried five months, and that her children have been inmates of the Baldwin Place II mo lor Little Wanderers in Boston nearly all that time. Her husbands relatives have kept these facts secret from Imr for the evident purpose of preventin'; her from claiming the Captains property, the whole of which they have in their possession. This in said to amount to a very respectable sum, suilicienl to keep the poor lady and her little ones in comfort the remainder of her life. It seems almost too horrible to think of that persons of respectability could be so brutal as to force a dying man and his wife apart in this heartless manner, hut. 1 am assured that the story have given ou is not in the slightest rlhe agony of degree exaggerated. Poor noth must have been terrible. Mrs. Maxey is completely prostrated. She has found kind friends, however, who have heard her harrowing tale, and who are willing and able to her in recovering her own. As soon as she can mmo about again, she will go to Boston and Ganbner and invoke the strong arm of the law to force her cruel relatives to disgorge, and mayhap to punish them as they rightly deserve.
