MOTHERHOOD,
I hold within my arms to-day,
A priceless bit of mortal clay ;
Divinely fashioned, and so fair
The angels well may kinship share.
My soul with gratitude is filled :
My heart with mother love is thrilled;
My eyes brim o’er with newborn joy,
While gazing on my cherub boy.
O, precious one! through tears I see
A mighty task awaiting me ;
My happy sky grows overcast—
Life’s duties loom so grand, so vast.
To shield from wrong, to right incline
This little life now linked to mine.
Divine the gift. Oh, may the mould
A heart of truth and honor hold.
Help me, kind Heaven, to know the way
From out the tangles of each day,
To guide him safe to manhood’s prime,
And all the glory shall be Thine.
A Clever Impostor.
Even the Father Deceived by a False
Prodigal Son,
One of the prominent families of
Beaver county, Pa., in early times, was
that of General John Mitchell. He
was born in Perry county, Pa., 1781.
In 1800 he changed to Bellefonte, Centre
county, where he lived until 1842, when
he removed to Beaver county to become
first paymaster on the Erie canal, and
subsequently superintendent of the
Beaver division of that water thorough-
fare. Prior to his removal he had been
sheriff, and subsequently served two
term in congress. The position of sup-
erintendent of the Erie canal he held
until the time of his death in the terrible
scourge of cholera in August, 1849.
Gen. Mitchell had one son, David A.
and two daughters, Martha J. and Nan-
cy H. The last became the wife of Dr.
J. H. Dickson, of Pittsburg, both of
whom were, when last heard from, liv-
ing in the ex-Smoky city. My story in-
volves Gen. Mitchell and his two chil-
dren, David and Nancy, together with
a former resident of Washington coun-
ty. It involves the intricate points of
personal identity and shows how affec-
tion and credulity may be deceived and
imposed upon by the cunning and intel-
ligent rogue.
David A. Mitchell was born at Belle-
fonte, on Jan. 20, 1818, and at the age
of 24 went with his father to Beaver
county. When the Mexican war broke
out he enlisted in Company K, First
regiment, Pennsylvania Volunteers,and
was mustered into service at Pittsburg
on Christmas day, 1846. His company,
known as the “blues,” was commanded
by Capt. Alexander Hays, and the regi-
ment by Col. Wynkoop, though Lieut.
Col.Samuel Black,a Pittsburg attorney,
was practically in charge during the
the greater part of its service. As soon
as the regiment was organized and
equipped, it started for the scene of ac-
tion. Descending the Ohio and Missis-
sippi, it landed finally at Vera} Cruz,
where David was wounded in the ankle,
This, however, did not deter him from
accompanying his regiment toward Mex-
ico. Many of the men were terribly
afllicted with diarrhoea, and had to be
left in the hospitals of Perote. David,
one of the unfortunate victims, was dis-
charged from the service and with oth-
ers started homewasd. Having no am-
bulances, they started on foot for the
coast, and finally reached Jalapa, but
could go no farther. Owing to the lack
of sanitary conditions at that point,
they returned to Perote, where David
died June 6, 1847.
The day prior to his death David
wrote to his father a letter describing his
condition, but owing to the imperfect
mail facilities of those times it was not
received until the following November,
wnen it arrived accompanied by one
from Dr. Reynold’s, the surgeon of the
regiment. Nothing further was heard
from him directly; nor could it be ex-
pected until the war closed. Here we
must introduce another phase of David’s
history in cornection with home scenes.
In the month of June, 1848, Gen.
Mitchell, then superintendent of the
eaver division of the canal, on which
both father and son were well and favor-
ably known, received from an innkeep-
er at Conneautville a letter, saying that
David Mitchell was at tho inn. Dis-
crediting the story, the General wrote
for particulars, and was shortly greeted
with a reply signed, “Yourson, D. A.
Mitchell.” The letter declared the al-
leged death in Mexico a mistake, and
stated that he (David) was ashamed to
return to his father’s house because of
recent hard drinking -- a practice
to which it was known he was addicted.
‘The hand writing so thoroughly resem-
bled David’s that there was supposed to
be no possibility of a fraud in the prem-
ises,
The father was convinced that his
lost boy was yet alive. Though not ad-
dicted to weeping he shed tears of joy.
That evening he and his daughter Nan-
cy and her husband left on the canal
boat fur Conreautville. When, after a
tedious trip, they reached the place,
they learned that the supposed son had
gone to Linesville, leaving his board
Dill unsettled. Paying this (a point in
‘which the innkeeper was deeply inter-
ested, and which made him gelieve that
‘the personage was Davil) the General
;proceeded with his party "in a carriage,
‘through a pouring rain, across the coun-
"try, some seven or eight miles, to Lines-
vitle, where his son David had left some
of his receipts and account books. These
had been scrutinizingly scanned and
studied by the pretended son as afford-
ing a clew to the contractor's system of
Plemusunty. The Linesville innkeeper
ikewise pronounced his guest the veri-
table David Mitchell, and said he was
lying asleep on a settee. Going to the
room and shaking him the General said:
“My son, wake up.” Looking up, the
sleeper said: “Why, father, is that
you ?”’
In her account of this meeting, as de-
tailed in a letter to the writer of this
sketch, Mrs. Dickson(nee Nancy Mitch-
ell) says: “That (question) was enough
for father; but he would not let me see
him. The man did not want to see me
until he had shaved and had his clean
clothes on. Father got a buggy and
drove him to the canal. We had to
wait until night for the boat. They
fixed him up and put him to bed; and
when father went out to buy him some
clothes, I went in. He looked like
Dave, but his hair was lighter and thin-

ner, and his beard black—Dave’s was
red. He had moleson his cheek like
David’s. On his hand he had a scar ex-
actly like David's where he had cut his
hand when a boy. He kept his mouth
covered (some ong bad told him his
mouth was not like David's). He said
it was sore--he was salivated. I took
the handkerchief off and made him
open his mouth. I wasso frightened ;
I knew it was not David’s teeth nor
mouth. Iran down stairs and scream- |
ed for father. He and the doc tor(Dick-
son) came, and father was very angry,
saying I must not go near him again
until I could treat him as my brother,
and never say again that he was not
David. The doctor said, too, it was
David.
“J saw him on the boat, and I did
try to believe it was my brother, I
was afried to speak of it to anyone.
Father was devoted to him, and I was
kept busy working and waiting on him.
Reaching Beaver, Mattison Darragh
and some other friends of David’s sat u
with him. He was sick in bed.
think he had de ‘ium tremens. Mr.
Darragh told me the next day that he
was not David, and that gave me some
confidence.”
It is remarkably strange that every
mark or feature in David Mitchell had
its counterpart in the imposter. He
was the impersonation of deception and
hypocrisy. When Nancy suggested to
him, one day, that her brother’s hair
was not so thin and light, he compla-
cently met the objection by saying: ¢‘If
your hair had been combed with cannon
balls it would be thin, too.”” He an-
nounced that his teeth had all been ex-
tracted in Mexico, and a Mexican’s
teeth had been inserted. So complete-
ly did he succeed in deceiving the peo-
ple that the majority at first decided
him to be the absent son. It was for
several weeks the absorbing topic in the
commurity.
At length the Mexican soldiers began
to return to their homes, coming up the
Ohio in boats. Some fears were enter-
tained that violence would be used by
them upon this man should they learn
what kind of a role he was playing.
He was stopping at the National hotel,
in Beaver, to which house he had been
taken by Gen. Mitchell. Col. Black,
commander of the regiment, went up to
look at the man. When he came from
his room he remarked : “David Mitch-
ell had an honest countenance ; that
man has the countenance of a sheep
thief.” Onesoldier who was a witness
of Mitchell’s death was in the company.
He went before a magistrate and made
an affidavit accordingly. On the next
boat that arrived wus a man who then
had on the trousers David wore at the
time of his death. These facts became
convincing. The impostor was arrested
and placed in jail, but no criminal ac-
tion was brought against him, and he
was released and induced to flee the
country.
The name of this successful impostor
was Samuel H. Davitt. He was proba-
bly 10 years older that Mitchell, and
was a shrewd, intelligent man-—a teach-
er by profession. "When he first appear-
ed in Bridgewater, Beaver county, at
the Colonel Chester Bloss hotel, subse-

thinks that Davitt did not originally in-
tend to practice sueh an imposition ;
but being reminded often, along the
line of the canal, of the striking resem-
blance between himself and David
Mitchell, he concluded to turn the’ fact
to his personal interest in securing the
payment of board bills and obtaining
such other favors as Gen. Mitchell’s in-
dulgent nature would prompthim to be-
stow. His consummate knowledge of
human nature, his natural sociable dispo-
sition, and his perfect mastery of the art
of disimulation enabled him to play his
part successfully. His skill in deceiving
even the father and other relative of the
lost man was overcome by the keen in-
sight of Nancy who, against the pro-
testations of life-long neighbors, declar-
ed the migratory schoolmaster, the ver-
iest impostor. No ordinary event at-
tracted so much attention in Beaver
county as did this; and the older class
of people still consider it a remarkable
