I •
I facts will be not displaced, I ..
1.. " Daniel Clark, who was ore of the early
settlers of the Coloriy of Louisiana' was a
very remarkable person. His sagacity;
prudence . and business tact, soon placed
him at the bead of its monetary world,
awhile his beauty of person, popular_ char-,
actor Arid agreeable manners affoided hini
a similar position in .the sacial-cirele: In
1802 he became acquainted in Philadel
phia with a Irdy of extraordinary personal.'
beauty, named Zulime Carriere. ;She was '
born in the old. French colony o( Bilo x i,
' ancrher parents mere emigrants rom' the I
land of poetry-and romance--=Prflrence-='
the favonte home -of the Troubadours.'
When Clark first met her, she hOd been
living in wedlock with 'a switdler named
Jerome DeGrange, who, ha fting dazzled
Iher with a•glitteringeoronet, married her,
I and then disclosed the, astotindg facts
that he was a confectioner and a bigamist.
Zulime appealed for protebtidn to Clark,
who being warm hearted and chivalrous,
at once espoused her cause; and rafter be-I
coming convinced that DeGrango had an-
other
.wife living, espoused herself.• The
marriage was kept secret, and iin 1806 i
Myra, now Mrs. Gaines was born ! Beink- 1 ,
naturally desirous of having her connect
tien• with Clark a publicly nekno`wiedged
ona,Zulime went to New oh-•'Orleans tooh-•'
twin legal proofs of her 'first,' 1165h:old's, I
rascality. While she was gone, Clark,j
who had grown •into an influential politi-tI
elan, became enamored of Miss Caton,' a"
grand-daughter of Charles Carroll, with.
whiim . he contracted
..an -engagement," I
though when reports were - brought 'to'
Mitia,Caton alleging her hirer's' Marriage '
. to.Zulime, she at once insisted •uPon a re,
lease from the engagement; and ishe sub-
I sequently became the Marchiones; ( s ofWel-
1 lesly. • .
I
Ins: the meantime,&aline. had retorned l
Ito Philadelphia and sou ght to obtain '
proofii of her mania& with Clafk, 'who,'
had,- with singular 'treachery, ' destroyed!
all - that he could discover. Finhigher-, I
self - helpless, in a strange counl
rye , an
with a child dependent upon her,! she was : !
I wholly at a loss' what . to do, and, in her'
01 destitution, driven almost to despair,
_she!
I accepted the hand of Dr. Gardetie, 3vho,'l,
I with kindness and generosty, united his;;
1 fOrtune with hers. Clark, in the meantline,
h ad become penitent, but, on hastkning to,
I find his former love, ascertained that she
was the wife of another. -He tpok the"
I child 313, 1, placed under the -care .of al
I -friend, an ad her most liberally cduca:l

Clark, - whose business talent Was pro-'
verbial, amassed an immense fortune in
Louisiana, Missouri, Kentucky acid Mary
land,. which he bequeathed . by i will ; in
1 8 13,, to his Mother, Mary Clark, I ifsming
Beverly Chew and Richard Relf,jbankers,
of New Orleans, as executors. Charges
have bean preferred against the eXecutors
of bid faith and inismarnent, but ,
however that may be, MPEJ--then Mrs.
Whitney—baying discovered at maturity
that her mother had been the wife of tlie
deceased millionaire,- with an impulse of,
honorable affection for which she; cannot
be too highly praised, determined, to as
sert her right, u the legitimate child and
and Consequent heiress to the entire prop- -
ert_y.

That she met with. opposition Imd with
obstacles of all sorts. may well belimagin
ed, but she battled for her mother's hon
or, and evinced - the most eormnendable
spirit and perseverenee, in spite Of - Most
. fearful odds. Her husband died, !but she
remarried, and in do doing enlisted a pow-'
erful auxiliary in the person cif` Gen.
Gaines, who believed in her legitimacy; •
and aided her with all his might. lit
would be wearisome iperely to index the j
various legal struggles, the attempted so
"ostracisma, the treacheries, the sor
rows„ the hopes and. fears experienced by
Mrs. Gaines m this work of her lifetime.
She sued in numerous 'Courts, nod with
varied success, until her fortune was
her friends convinced: of the uselessness
of further trial, and ilt but .her Own in-'
domitable She struggled
on, and; as a last resort, brought the case
in its anaplitudetind . its labyrinths of le
gal techniCalities to the Supreinn Court
of theland..
,There ; after a long and Pa
tient' hearing, she has obtained her,victorF.
The Court has unanimously decided that
Myin. Clark Gaines is the only legitimate
child of Daniel Clark, and that,- as such,
she is entitled to all die pro perty left-by
