JrVom the Motion Tranter pt of yesterday.
Thr people ot a quiet suburban village within
ten miles ot Doptoa nave been anmewbat exer
cised of late by the deception oi a persistent
and tkiliul impofrtor, in tbe person ot an tnte
xeetuig joung lady, whose story ot etcaoe Irom
a Canadian nunnery and tbe clutches o( a re
lentles turioutuoocf dm wroupbt upon and
awakened tbe .mpatbies ot hundreds with
wbom she can e In contact. A plain statement
f I act bid a case like this furnishes sufficient
romance for tbe general public, and an absence I
f the romautic clement In the narrative will
render tt much more acceptable to those who
have been victimized by the unfortunate lady ot
"eighteen summers.'' All of tbe Ideal cannot,
however, be dispensed with, for her very name
Is suggestive of all that Is dark-haired, brisht
eved wonderfully intellectual and lovable,
With a "cruel parieni" ana a dom tovyer," tn
veliow-covered novels. Gertrude Grey was her
same, and ber stature was about five teet eight;
sue at least twcDty-ave eighteen, according to
ker arUbmettc. To begin tbe story.
On a rainy afternoon, about three weeks ac;o,
Oenrude Grey might bave been seen wending
her way if ova the depot In , up one of the
principal fitret, SoUl she reacned a bouse
wb're the ventured to 0cek tor admission.
When met by the lady of th? cansion she asked,
Aiejou a Catholic 1" No," w$ the reply.
'Are jou ture yon are not ?" asked fcertrude,
timidly and yet earnestly. Upon beinerearvd
that she was not, the btraneer told her story,
affirming that she had escaped irom a convent
near Quebec, had, been befriended by a rich
English lamilv, had been to New York, stopped
at tbe Actor House, where her trunk was de
tained for board unpaid, and she was now in
search of a Mrs. Harris, who lived in the town,
wbo bad belriended her somewhere in her
travels. teLins ber to call whenever she needed
assistance. Her father, who was an English
Man, so her story ran, came to this country
with bis family several years ago, and all were
drowned, lu the steamer wrecked oil Caoe Race,
with the exception ol him and herself; she went
into a convent near Quebec, while her parent
joined our army, having lost his all in tbe
wrecked steamer. She desired to get money to
to back to England, where she had rich rela
tives residing at the "West End" ot London.
Thus her .uory ran; and in tpite of alt invita
tions to remain, she started for the street in tbe
ram. She lingered a moment bv the gate, and
conversed v.ith some ether parties whom she
met. Wben interrogated as to where she pro
posed to remain that night, she answered, as if
putting the lullest trust in I'rondenne, "lam
net a raid to Bleep in the fields" She did not
leep in the field, however inviting they might
be to her; and still protesting tbatsbe ought not
to accept hospitality, and moreover did not ask
tbe lavor, Gertrude entered the house, where,
With 8' eming reluctance, she remained with a
worthy family for near a fortnight, keeping up
the derept on with consummate art.
Her pathetic narrative, related with all the
naivete of a school girl, and tbe convincing
weight of unvarnished truth and unaaected
simplicity, moved all who heard it to do some
thing to assist her in her dire extremity. And
tbin eenerous action was not condnea to the

'and others who bad but a short lime beiore be
friended an impos'or, but those penerally cal
lous to the appeals of the untortrmaUi were
believers in the nunnery yarn ot Gertrude Grey.
Her eimpiicitv and ignorance were more natural
than simplicity and ignoraucn generally are.
Bhe was afriid of a.eu, she eaid, never having
Been them in the nunnery, and al-o feared there
might be among them envoys of the priestho id
to abduct her and carry her bnck within the
bated walls ot tbe convent, irom which she had
fled to escape the terrible fate of the veil. It
was not positively proved that she was unac
customed to yonna nienN society until she a .'Iced
one day, with wondering eyes, why they wore
thoe eyebrows on their upper lips 1
A detailed sla'ement ot the incidents ef her
sojourn in would till a volume; and
enough will only be recorded in this article to
guard the public agninst similar swindl"8. Ger
trude is tall and would be called quite plain;
her complexion is lair hair brown, eyes quite
large, black, and lustrout., noso prominent,
mouth . large, above a retreating chin; ber
drees very neat. When he introduces herself
to her new friends he is generally without
baegaee trunks and clothes being left at
her former abiding place. Ueing a nun, she,
of course, in the instance of deception now de
scribed, was very ignorant of the names of
things in common use wearing apparel, edibles,
etc. Bhe called ice cream Irozen milk, and
was very fond of it, as ot nio-t other delicacies,
the names of which were to ber unknou.
Tomatoes she had never seen, and epoke of
them a short time af'er learning their name as
"tommy bo vs." The first plate of them set
before her, however, the proceeded to salt and
pepper, like one wbo bad olten partaken of
the healthful vegetable.
Her "moving hccidents by flood and field," in
escaping Irom the convent, had of course left
their impression upon her frarlln frame, and
riven her system a shock, o that 6b e apoeared
nushrd and nervous at times, with tearful eve,
While at others tbe was pallid And llvi I, and
apparently a ereat mental 6utferer. Her feelings
are now accounted for by two taucenot paint
one very re 1, and the other wbite found in
ber room after her exposure. Atter she had
suffered "untold agonv." and had "not closed
ber eves In sleep all night," as she pathetically
told ber benefactress, her countenance would
be wbite and her eyes heavy and sad. Hue
was like "Niobe. all tears," when occasion re
quired, and could weep more naturally than
any "Mrs. nailer" on the modern stage.
Con oelled to be constant! v on the alert, and
V) be guarded again-t surprise, she has acquired
a wonderful knowledge of the mechanism of the
bun: an mind, aud can de ect m itives in actions,
wbere suspicion would not haunt an ordinarv
person's thouubts. especially where those actions
in any war concerned hersell. Incidents oc

The holel here alluded to was the Tjnont
House, Boston. The lady upon whom r
billeted herseiHbree weeks agopropowd, wttea
In ton one day, to enter the hotel, where bo
was to meet ber husband. This Oertrwdc refue4
to oo-an art which to her companion iwaa prtma
facie evidence of her iroponture. Not wishing
to make too sudden a decision, however, ber
bei elactres entered and lnlormed the clerks
and tbe "out-generalled" porter above named,
who knew ol the "little game," that the run
was promenadtng up and down on the sidewalk.

after an absence of two or three minutes re-
r or ted tnat tnev inoenMlica the RtrMiner a the
joung lady who lost her purse throe years ago.
The report of tbe hotel committee was accepted
as the final decision, and the contidence game of
the bogus nun was ended. After delivering tben
and there a verv decided lectu.e to the swindler.
her benefactress told her that thev must nart
company, an announcement which greatly sur-
fmsed Gertrude, as she supposed she was to re
urn to and get her trunk, which she was
in'orned i-he could not do.
Her cool iffipuueure after exposure was even
more remarkable than her previous conduct
had been, She boasted of being the greatest of
liarn; oeiauea witn minute exactness the tune
when, and the ieneon why, suspicion as to her
real character arose in the minds of those with
v hom sbe was stopping. She trankly confessed
that t-he was actuated in ber course of life by a
desire to associate with genteel people; sbe was
too lazy to work, and it she did labor she
shonld be obliged to live with what sbe called
"common people." Wben asked why she did
not apply tor a situation in a store, sbe drew
hereU proudly up, and declared "she would
oie flrtt." Hhe always had moved in very good
society, and always intended to. Sbe probably
will until she visits the house of correction, or
pome public reformatory institution.
The great secret ot her "success" is In ex
rjjjtog sympathy, 61n never ask for anything,
and has often protest' aifttinst receiving moneys
collected for heron the ground that the Lord
would take care of her. This beiri? the case,
those whom she has swindled do not have ieX
airested, as Bhe has soliciced neither lood nor
raiment, and bar received all her favors nnder
protest. Alter ber last exposure, several bene
volent gentlemen took her in chaige, and at
tempted to provide lor her In some way.
Alter several days of crobs-txaminatlon, she
in the meantime being comfortably at a hotel in
this city, they gave up the job as an unprofit
able one, and were glad to get rid of her on
any terms. 6o they paid her bill aud started
her again on her travels, she still "trusting in
the Lord." As the paragraph above states,
"those familiar with her varied stories will
tva'cb with tome eagerness to see what game
sbe will play in the next scene of ber opera
tions." In the meantime, her ' trunk and
things" can be had by any "interested party"
removing the lien upon them.
