Percival, took away the rough edge from many sharp criticisms to which she might otherwise be subjected. So she made up her mind that she would become an interesting widow also, if the thing could be managed, . Accordingly she began to lay her plans, and returning to Oakland took up her residence in the Henry House, where she met Mr. and Mrs. R. M. Apgar. Mr. Apgar was consulted and agreed that ifshe was determined to marry at all hazards, «and for the purpose stated, it would be advisable to have the thing settled with as little publicity as possible. He accordingly introduced this peculiar young lidy to Dr. Anson A. de Puy" He declared that he knew of just the man to~stit Miss Frankie’s wish, in the person-of a poor printer named Frank McKee, who had a beautiful case’ of -consumption, with a blood-spitting accom paniment, and whocould not possibly live more than one month, or say six weeks at the outside. Accordingly, on the following day, December 27th, she and Mr, Apgar went to the office of Dr. De Puy where the medical man exhibited his consumptive. Miss Frankie looked at him with a critical eye, thumped his chest vigorously, and mada him cough several times for the purpose of seeing if the investment wasa safe one. She tinally conéluded thatshe would tuke the chances of his living. MeKeo had mean while been informed of the peculiar arrangement and consented to marry the girl fora ready money ation. The pair were at onee wedded by Justice Wood. ‘They did not depart together, however. [t had been azreod that the husband should yo and die by himself, and thus quictly and expeditiously settle everything in a satisfactory manner. ‘The wife gave him $100 before the ceremony took place, and agreed to pay Dr, De Puy $700 with which to defray the expenses of a comfortable death bed for her husband. McKee failed to keep his promise, however, and strangely insisted on living. In fact, he grew alarmingly healthy, and evidently thought he had what is vulgarly termed ‘‘a soft snap.’’ Mr. McKee did not see her again until February. She tcld him she had been looking for him and that she had sent him money at different times, in all amounting to $500. McKee replied that he had received $80 of this sain, Mrs. McKee then made an appointment to meet her husband a few days later, which she kept. The couple took a drive through the Park, when the wife, so McKee subsequently stated, proposed that they should live as man and wife. He did not at once accept the proposition and his wife thereupon became piqued at his coolness. He declared that she said that she was wi.ling to support him and desired him to fx a monthly sum on which he could live, but he refused to do so, through ‘delicacy,’ After that Mrs. McKee becanie economical and failed to give her husband any more cash. Early last summer she went East and visited friends at some point in Indiana. Her ausbanid followed and attempted to obtain an interview with her, but she refused to see hiin. Then the wiie went to Europe, accompanied by Mrs. Jolin Hamilton of this city. She has not yet returned. « onsiderEverytuina for holiday cookiag can be found at Gaylord’s store, lw —— ~~ 2 SampPe Books for all kinds ¢f Stamping at Mrs, Mills’ store, Broad street, No vada City. d21-3t “0 0@e oe -For lame back, side or chest, use Shiloh’s Porous Plaster.

Percival, took away the rough edge from many sharp criticisms to which she might otherwise be subjected. So she made up her mind that she would become an interesting widow also, if the thing could be managed, . Accordingly she began to lay her plans, and returning to Oakland took up her residence in the Henry House, where she met Mr. and Mrs. R. M. Apgar. Mr. Apgar was consulted and agreed that ifshe was determined to marry at all hazards, «and for the purpose stated, it would be advisable to have the thing settled with as little publicity as possible. He accordingly introduced this peculiar young lidy to Dr. Anson A. de Puy" He declared that he knew of just the man to~stit Miss Frankie’s wish, in the person-of a poor printer named Frank McKee, who had a beautiful case’ of -consumption, with a blood-spitting accom paniment, and whocould not possibly live more than one month, or say six weeks at the outside. Accordingly, on the following day, December 27th, she and Mr, Apgar went to the office of Dr. De Puy where the medical man exhibited his consumptive. Miss Frankie looked at him with a critical eye, thumped his chest vigorously, and mada him cough several times for the purpose of seeing if the investment wasa safe one. She tinally conéluded thatshe would tuke the chances of his living. MeKeo had mean while been informed of the peculiar arrangement and consented to marry the girl fora ready money ation. The pair were at onee wedded by Justice Wood. ‘They did not depart together, however. [t had been azreod that the husband should yo and die by himself, and thus quictly and expeditiously settle everything in a satisfactory manner. ‘The wife gave him $100 before the ceremony took place, and agreed to pay Dr, De Puy $700 with which to defray the expenses of a comfortable death bed for her husband. McKee failed to keep his promise, however, and strangely insisted on living. In fact, he grew alarmingly healthy, and evidently thought he had what is vulgarly termed ‘‘a soft snap.’’ Mr. McKee did not see her again until February. She tcld him she had been looking for him and that she had sent him money at different times, in all amounting to $500. McKee replied that he had received $80 of this sain, Mrs. McKee then made an appointment to meet her husband a few days later, which she kept. The couple took a drive through the Park, when the wife, so McKee subsequently stated, proposed that they should live as man and wife. He did not at once accept the proposition and his wife thereupon became piqued at his coolness. He declared that she said that she was wi.ling to support him and desired him to fx a monthly sum on which he could live, but he refused to do so, through ‘delicacy,’ After that Mrs. McKee becanie economical and failed to give her husband any more cash. Early last summer she went East and visited friends at some point in Indiana. Her ausbanid followed and attempted to obtain an interview with her, but she refused to see hiin. Then the wiie went to Europe, accompanied by Mrs. Jolin Hamilton of this city. She has not yet returned. « onsiderEverytuina for holiday cookiag can be found at Gaylord’s store, lw —— ~~ 2 SampPe Books for all kinds ¢f Stamping at Mrs, Mills’ store, Broad street, No vada City. d21-3t “0 0@e oe -For lame back, side or chest, use Shiloh’s Porous Plaster.
