Circumstances connected with the pro
ceedings that were had home weeks since
iu relation te Frank Burrcll's claim that
Emma Smith is his daughter, were such
as te warrant the conclusion at least in
the majority of minds that the claim was
unfounded. Miss Emma treated the whole
affair as a joke, and as such she relished
it ; her people pronounced 3Ir. Iiurrcll an
imposter and produced the liible record
of Emma Smith's birth at Pittston, while
it was claimed by the eldest sister that she
could produce at least twenty witnesses
by whom Emma's identity as a Smith
might be established. Even Bun-ell's
riglit hand man, Carlisle, hardly knew
what te believe concerning the matter and
was considerably surprised, apparently, at
subsequent developments. Burrell himself
no Jar as the public could sec, gave the af
fair little heed after it had passed out of
the mayor's office, have te send te the
chief of police some three or four affidavits
te show that he had at one time a daugh
ter Emma ; that she was taken te Scrauten
and there lest 1 rack or. Damaging rcpei ts
as te BurrcllV di nuclei- came from Bing Bing
hamteu one i- iuiuiunicatieu te County
Detective Sw .i-i stating that the Broeme
county authiiMtics wanted Burrell and
would "ii.ibble" him if he ventured
across the Pennsylvania line and.strangcr
still, iu the face of these reports Bur
rell went directly into the enemy's camp.
Though still later reports placed him in
the custody of Binghamton officials he
subsequently appeared as prosecutor, and
new he Iirs a number of parties under bail
ler luiurc appearance.
It is net te be wondered that, all these
things being known, Burrell, se far as his
claim of paicntage te Emma Smith is con
cerned was considered a little crooked.
But affairs have taken another turn within
the past few days and at present Burrell
holds the winning card, lie returned te
Wilkcsbarre en Thursday evening, and
upon consultation with Mayer Brederickas
le the advisability of prosecuting his claim
was tern by that official te cmnnv cenn-
seH Mr. Brederick recommended T. It.
Martin, esq., son-in-law of Mr. Isaac Sink,
of Lancaster, and sent for him te come te
his office. Mr. Martin responded in person
and was shown by the mayor additien.il
proofs of Burrell's claim the affidavits re
ferred te and when asked by Martin
what iiis notions wcre concerning the case
the mayor told him that it was his candid
belief that Burrell was the girl's father.
Mr. Martin then allowed himself te be
professionally retained in the matter.
Emma was then at Mr. Girten's, formerly
the Kemcrer house, en Northampton
sirccr, ami Mr. Martin went there te see
the girl, stating that he wanted a pro
fessional interview with her and preferred
that it be at his office, rather .than at the
house. She accordingly accompanied him
te his office, and there he read te her the
affidavits of Mrs. Hannah Ceatcs(BurreHs
sister), of Oxford, N. Y. ; Eliza Newark,
Julia A. Mattiseu and Mary Hese, of
Binghamton, and Silas N. Burrell (Frank's
brother), of Chalemcttc Centre. The sub
stance or these affidavits was given at the
time they were received by ihe chief of
police, and there is no occasion for repe
tition new. Emma was also closely ques
tioned by the attorney. She stated that
burrell, in all his interviews with her, had
treated hcr as a gcntlumau. should, and
told things concerning her early life the
way in which the eldest Smith daughter
had treated her and that a Mrs. Brigham
had told her Mie was net a Smith but a
Burrell that, with the affidavits, satis
lied Mr. Martin that there was really
something iu Burrell's claim. Burrell was
subsequently called iu aud slated that if
the girl was unwilling te go he would
produce the witnesses whose affidavits are
above alluded te, together with ethers.
who will be wjlliug te testify'in case of
legal proceedings upon a writ of Iinbcus
corpus, and further premised that, if
Emma suspected him of any wrong, he
would send her iu charge of an officer te
his sister, Mrs. Coates, with whom she
should have a home. Mr. Martin then ad
vised Emma te accompany Burrell te
Binghamton, telling her that when she
reached there she might investigate the
matter herself, and that, if she had
any pride, this question "of parent
age was a serious one. Emma ac
cepted Mr. Martin's advice aud arranged
te loave en the two o'clock (Saturday)
train for Pittston, where she desircd te
step until 5 p. in. for the purpose of meet
ing a young man J. S. Sands a butcher.
te whom it is believed she is engaged
Burrell te meet her at "West Pittston. She
desired Mr. Martin te accompany her te
Pittston, as she feared interference there
from the Smith family. He accordingly
met her at the depot, but here Detective
bwan appeared and protested against
Emma's geiug, telling her she should take
no stock iu what Mr. Martin advised her,
because he had been paid for it. Just then
the Smith family, whom Swan had tclo tcle
graphed te at Pittston, alighted from the
down tram and joined their pretests with
these of the county detective. Mrs. Smith
aud her eldest daughter making loud de
clarations that Emma should no longer
have any claim upon the Smith estate by
reason or the step she was about takintf.
Mr. Martin told the latter that she should
give herself no anxiety about that, as she
had a right te go where she pleased te in
vestigate the question of parentage ; that
if she was satisfied that she was
a Smith and net a Burrell she could
return aud he would see that she
was protected iu any interest that she
might have iu the Smith estate, and that
Mrs. Smith aud her daughter, by swear
ing before the mayor that she was Emma
Smith, had estepped themselves from
swearing otherwise iu relation te her
claims upon the estate. By this time con
siderable of a crowd had gathered aud the
excitemenyras intense. Mr. Martin ap
pealed te Officer Ithodes,whe was standing
by, te protect the girl in case any attempt
was made te keep her off the train. Thcre
was no trouble, however, and the party
proceeded te Pittston. The youngest of
the Smith girls seemed much affected by
Emma's going, occupied the -seat with her
in the cars, and manifested such an inter
est in the proceeding as a sister naturally
would which Mr. Martin could net help
respect and sympathizing with. He states
that if Mrs. Smith and her eldest daughter
had demeaned themselves toward the girl
as the youngest daughter had done, he
should have advised Emma te remain with
them until he could communicate with
parties in New Yerk relative te Burrell.
Upen arrival at Pittston it was deemed
unadvisable te leave the train at the Lehigh
Valley depot, and they accordingly pre
ceeded te the L. & B. Junction, where
Emma met Mr. Sands. Here she, for the
first, seemed te realize her situation, and
stated that while it was true that she had
net had a pleasant home with the SmitBs,
yet her acquaintances and friends were at
Pittston and Wilkcsbarre. She had-made
her own living heretofore and could con
tinue te de se among her friends. In case
Burrell turned out te be a fraud and she
was net received by Mrs. Coates as she
had reason te expect she would be,
she would" feel very badly. This thought
seemed te seriously affect her and
Bhe wept bitterly. Her tears mingled with
the sad farewells of her lever, and she
again bearded the train for West Pittston,
where she was te meet Burrell, the scene
was anything but a joyous one. Mr. Mar
tin, ever watchful of his ward's interest.
te guard against any bad intentions en the
part of Burrell and fearing that he may
have illy advised the girl, wrete a letter te
the mayor of Binghamteu, statiug that if
Emma called upon him for protection ha
should take charge of her until she re
ceived money te return te Pittscen ; that
Mayer Broderick believed that the man
traveling with her was her father,
and that he (Martin) was an at
tdrneyef this city aud through the sug
gestien of the mayor had been called
into the case professionally. This let
ter he gave te Emma, told her te conceal
it about her person net lcttimr Burrell
knew she had it and if necessary te use
it at Binghamton. He also further re
quested her te let him knew if she was
net properly treated by Burrell, assuriug
her that if she wanted te return he would
immediately furnish her money with
which te de se. She then asked him if he
would be as geed as his word would he
really send her money if she needed it '.'
and upon being reassured that he would
she was satisfied. Emma had slated that
bhe would net go with Burrell if Carlisle
was upon the train, and te satisfy himself
that Burrell was alone, Mr. Martiu re
turned le the junction with them and
went through each car, closely examining
all, but failed te see anything of Carlisle.
Further than this, he 'exacted a premise
from Burrell that he would telegraph him
immediately upon his arrival at Bingham
ten, se that he (Maitin) should knew J
that he had stepped off nowhere for the
night. 'Ibis premise Burrell kept, for a
telegram announcing his arrival at the
Parler City at 9:30 Saturday evening was
received by Mr. Martin yesterday morn
ing. Thus it would seem that what at first
appeared as the attempt of a mcre adven
ture, te get possession of a young giil for
uie iitue money sue may have had, was
inspired by mera houerablo motives
and until something shall transpire te
threw new light upon the case Burrell's
claim will undoubtedly be accepted as
legitimate.

Romantic i.eve uf an Ohie Maiden.
Cincinnati Enquirer.
" Never condemn a person en circum
stantial evidence, it is unreliable, even
when the circumstances scorn te lit iute
each ether like a couple of cog wheels,"
said Jehn T. Merris, who is an experi
enced detective of Springfield, Ohie.
"Give us" the story, Unde Jehn."
" Net lernr ajre there resided in Frank
lin county a wealthy old maid, Miss Sabitia
Smith. By inheritance she was the pos
sessor of a large farm, en which was an
old-fashioned, though comfortable dwell
ing house. She was reputed te have a
geed squat c bank account.
"Hew old is she:"'
" Well, en the shady side of SO, but she
had a weakness, like all old maids, net for
kittens, poodles or canaries, but for chil
dren. She had raised several orphan girls,
who arc new well settled in life. In 18G3
she adopted a six-ycar-eld, black-eyed
girl, bright as a button, named Mellic Mc
Cann, whose father had fallen in battle
lighting for his Hag and country, while
her mother crazed with grief, pined and
faded away. MelHe seen learned te love
her new mother, and from a prattling
maid in sheit clothes and pinafores she
seen bloomed forth into .'a gushing school
girl, and at 18 was the belle of every
rustic gatheriug the pretty Miss Mellic
McCanu, ever whom the boys ravel and
the girls envied. Te all her admirers she
turned a deaf car, aud with a pretty toss
of the head, aud merry twiukle of her
roguish eye, bade them be off, and net
bothering her.' "
"Miss Smith was sensible; knew that
luonie weuiu pruuauie marry, and have a
home of her own seme day, se she neither
discouraged her fondness for society. nor
harped upon the miseries of wedded life
iu the maiden's ear, but when she came
back from the state fair at Columbus in
1878, and told her adopted mother about
the young gentleman that she had met,
his attentions and geed qualities, Miss
Smith was net pleased, nor did she hesi
tate te frown her displeasure, and advise
her ward te turn a willing car te the many
suitors of the neighborhood, instead of
seeking in far-off fields that which was
nearer home.
"But Mellic was like many auethcr
struck ou a traveling man, aud she carried
en a secret correspondence with him
through a lady friend for a long time,
until at last they were engaged.
" Miss Smith and Mollie wcre the sole
occupants of the house. The bedrooms
were four iu number, two of which wcre
used as spa re rooms, ene occupied by
Miss Smith and containing two beds, Mol Mel Mol
leo occupying the ene, Miss Smith the
ether. The fourth bedroom was called
Mellie's, but was euly used by her when a
lady friend was visiting her. In o'ue of
these spare bedrooms was an old-fashioned
bureau and book case combined, the top
drawer of which could be converted into a
desk. The back part of this drawer was
fitted up with small drawers. One of these
small drawers had from time immemorial
been used as a money drawer. In the sum
mer of 1879 theum was $335 was missed
from the drawer ; in the summer of fSSO
$200 mysteriously disappeared, together
with a quantity of cold coins which had
j been in the family for ever a century. On
tue xam clay el last May Miss Smith loau leau
cd te a neighbor $300, giving him her
check and he signing a note in her favor
Sickness prevented him from nrcspntinc
the check at the bank at Columbus, aud
learning that Miss Smith was going te the
city en the 30th, he requested her te get it
cashed. She did se and returned with
Mollie about dark en that day, havinir the
money all in $100 bills.
" The heuse was all securely locked
lpwr.-stairs and Miss Smith deposited the
$300 iu the secretary drawer, closed the
drawer, locking it aud placing the key in
the bureau drawer beneath. She then
locked the room containing the
bureau and placed the key under some
quilt? that lay in a wardrobe in her bed
room. Before retiring she locked her
bedroom deer and she and Mellic retired
for the night in separate beds in the same
room. The next morning, April 1st, the
neighbor who had borrowed the money,
having a long journey te perform, during
which he expected te make a payment ou
seme land purchased, called as early as
3 o'clock, before Miss Smith and Mellie
had arisen.
" Awakening Miss Smith, she took her
key from the wardrebe, unlocked the bed
room, then taking the bureau drawer key
from the under drawer of the secretary,
opened this te find the money gene. She
went down stairs ; everything was locked
and belted as she had left it the night be
fore "Who took that money ?"
"That was the question that confronted
me. lhore were no signs of a burglary ;
no lock- forced; windows and doers all
right. Ne ene else in the house but Mrs.
emitu ana me J no. vt course, i at once
examined the girl. She talked freely ; said
she always had a presentiment that the
money would be stolen in fact, had a pre
sentiment that night, but feared te tell the
eiu lauy ier lear et alarming her. i soenJ
icarneu mat 3101110 had a key which httcd
the bedroom containing the bureau, hence
my suspicions wcre strengthened that
Mollie had arisen iu the night, either un
locked the deer with her own key or taken
the ene iu the wardrebe, and securing the
money, hid it either in or out of the house
without awakening the old lady. I finally
told 3IolIie that I should have te search
her and make a thorough examination of
the house.
" ' Well,' bhe naively remarked, ' If you
de find money about the heuse it won't
prove that I stele it, will it ?"
" 'It will be prima facie evidence.' I
said.
" I locked her up iu her bedroom, and
began a thorough search ; bandboxes
pried into, bureau drawers pulled out,
cupboards ransacked and finally went
through her ewu room. Under the car
pet under her hed I feuud in a compact
wad twelve ene hundred dollar bills. New,
the total amount known te be missing was
only $1,043. Whoie had the $J53 come
irem? Where had the geld
te? Was the bureau drawer
tcrcst en its deposit.
" 'New Fvc'get you, Mellie,' as I con
fronted her.
"Mellie fainted.
"A bottle of camphor and a little cold
water brought her speedily te, yet she
sturdily proclaimed her innocence
'"I didn't take Miss Smith's money;
110, 1 did net,' she convulsively exclaimed
between her sobs.
"Miss Smith would net allow me te
take her te jail, where I reasoned confine
ment would seen compel her te confess.
"My work, however, was but partially
done, for the geld coins had net turned
up.
"I determined that theso coins must be
iu the house, aud resolved upon a thorough
search from cellar te garret. The cellar
disclosed nothing, and at last I stumbled
upon a small stairway leading te the gar
ret, the deer te which was a common trap
door, securely fastened by a padlock, te
which was attached three links of a chain.
" 'Give me the key,' I said te Mis Smith,
' te that trapdoor up iu the attic.'
" Oh, no use of looking there, the keys
have been le$t for ever five years, and no
one has ever been up there since.' There
were cobwebs en the deer, but I noticed
that ever the crack of the deer's edge
they te have been broken away, caused by
the deer having been recently opened.
With an ax I speedily get the deer open
and saw lame footsteps in the dust. By
the aid of a lamp I followed the course of
the tracks ever the beards which lay across
the shaky rafters, te the farthest part
of the garret, where, ever an old cross
beam, hung a pair of old fashioned saddle
bags. The dust en the bags had been re
cently disturbed. In ene of the pockets I
found the five one-hundred dollar bills
which disappeared ou the night of the
30th of May, the $335 that was missed in
the summer of 1879, the $290 that was
lest iu 1880. and, better than all. the rare
old geld coins upeu which Miss Smith set
such a store as an heirloom. I found the
money, but I feuud $1200 tee much. The
mystery deepsned. I resolved upon ene
thing and that was that Mellie must knew
semething about the money that was hid
under the carpet beneath her bed. 1
talked kindly te her, told her that Miss
Smith's meucy had all been found,. aud
urged her te tell me hew the $1200 came
under the carpet of her bed,
" ' Yeu will net believe me if I tell you,
but if Miss Smith will go out I will ex
plain. I put that money there ; it was
my lever's. He had saved it out of his
wages and iriven it te me te keei. I de
streyed his letters for fear my, aunt would
find it out.' There's the story."
" But hew did the old lady's meney get
into the garret ?"
"She carried it thcre herself. She
was a somnambulist and walked in her
" Hew did you prove it, Mr. Merris ?
Did the old lady let you occupy the bed
room and catch her ?"
" Oh, no. 1 get the old lady te take off
her shoe and stocking aud place her Ne. G
feet down ou a sheet of white paper. With
a lead pencil I marked out her feet en that
sheet of paper. With a pair of scissors I
carefully cut out the exact shape of the
old lady's feet, which fitted exactly iu the
tracks in the dust en the garret beards.
Besides that, Mollie" s feet was much
smaller, she euly wearing a Ne. 2 shoe,
and would net fit the track. I also en
careful examination found tracks of cob
webs in the frill of the old lady's nightcap,
while Mollie were no nightcap. Se you
see I proved it by both ends the old
lady's head and by her feet. I explained
all te the satisfaction of the old lady, she
paid me my money, and I predict a wed
ding seen at the Smith mansion, with
Mellie McCanu as the bride.''
