He got a letter from John Perry, his agent who is looking after the lots, and he tells him he can double his money if he wants to sell, but Pard says: ‘‘Let’s hold on and make a big stake or nothing.”” One night last week after supper, we were sitting out under the old tree, when he spoke up suddenly and said: “Alf, there is no reason why I should not tell you part of my story and my real name. I[ am not ashamed of it and there is no reason why I should conceal it.” Then he went on to say that his true name was . . . . . . . and that he was born at Syracuse, went through college, studied law and practiced in his own town until he came here. He did not build up much of a business and while he was as poor as Job's off ox he married a girl who had considerable money in her own right. He loved her dearly, but she was extravagant, fond of society and luxury, which he could not afford from his own income, and she would not settle down until he could make his way. Then they began quarreling and she nagged ‘him about her money and her family until he could not stand it any longer and, the gold fever breaking out, he left for California. He made up his mind never to go back until he had as much money as his wife, and, if he failed, why then he would disappear for good. She thought he was in San Francisco, wrote to him there and the letters were forwarded by a friend to Nevada. For some time past she has been coaxing PHOTOGRAPHS Will Play CUPID For You!

He did not say much about what she was writing, but 1 knew from the change in him that things were different from what they were when . first met him, and he was pretty happy over it. Of course, he would have to keep the name of Anderson until he left Nevada, as he could not explain the. situation to anyone but me. I can see now why he used to be so sarcastic about the troubles women could make. . hope it will come out all right. (Note.—While Jackson’s frank revelations concerning himself, his experiences, loves and adventures can with safety be given to the world, as he and his kin have vanished into the unknown, the name that he reveals as the rightful one of his partner is another matter. It is that of one who stood among the foremost at the San Francisco Bar and high in the councils of the state; famous and successful as a pleader in many of the noted cases before the courts, an orator of persuasive eloquence and, withal, a man of fortune. He has been dead many years, but his immediate descendants are living in California, enjoying the fruits of his wealth and the benefits of his honorable name.
