Once a Murray Hill Belle. WlfcONED I* A HOTEL IN WINCHESTER COUNTY —THE MARKLAGE AND SEPARATION OP NELLIE MURRAY AND EDMUND 8. BEERS — MRS. BEERS* LATER LIFE AND DEATH. About twelve years ago Miss Nellie Murray came from Philadelphia with her father to make her home in New York. She was then a lovely miss of fourteen, and was the belle of Murray Hill. Not long afterward she formed the acquaintance of James Maher, then a dashing handsome young man of wealth, and they were soon regarded as affianced. They kept up diligent courtship for about two years. Then a fatal quarrel separated them. Mr. Maher went West and Miss Murray, who had grown to be a beautiful woman, heard no more of him. Two years later, being then eighteen years old, Miss Murray married Ed mund S. Beers, a clerk for Dunlap A Co., 526 and 528 Broadway. The union was unhappy, and two years after her marriage Mrs. Beers quit her husband’s house, alleging as a reason ihat he conld not support her in satis factory style. Mrs. Beers then made her home with a sister, Mrs. Trainer, wife of the Hon. Peter Trainer, at 10 West Twenty-eight street Mrs. Beers, who had excellent musi cal qualifications, vocal and instrumental, en gaged herself as a cantatrice, and gave many entertainments in the theatres under the pro fessional uamo of Miss Nellie Murray, thus supporting herself. A ehort time alter Mrs. Beers made her sister's house her home, Mr. James Ramsey, a clerk in the tax receiver’s office, became a boarder under the same roof. Mrs. Beers and Mr. Ilamsey were fast friends. Tils FIRST SUITOR S REAPPEARANCE. And now comes another chapter in the bis- to»y of Mrs. Beers. About three years ago Mr. Maher, Mrs. Beers’ first love, having heaid of her separation fiom her husband, appeared on the scene. He was received into the Trainer family as an old friend. Mr. Beets, whose health is failing, was then and is now in Stratford, Conn. There was talk of a divorce, but proceedings Wt-re never in stitute:!. On the first of last April Mr. Maher opened the Cliff House in ltye. near Portchc-ster. Soon afterward, according to his own story, he met Mrs. Beers ou the train going to Strat ford. He told her he had opened a house in liye, and asked her to spend the summer or a portion o! it with him. She replied that if her friend, Mr. Ramsey, would consent, she should be glad to do so. A RIDE WITH HER EARLY SUITOR On the 3d of July Mrs. Beeis, accompanied by Mrs. Trainer, Mr. Ramsey, and three children, went to the Cliff* House and re mained until the 8tli. Then the party re turned to the city. On the 10th Mrs. Beers and the children went back. On the 11th she rode out with Mr. Maher, visiting several hotels, and returned home fatigued. On the 12th Mrs. Beers at dinner was heard to say to Mr. Maher, ‘T don’t want to live. 1 am tired of life. Will you take my personal property?’ Mr. Maher consenting. Mrs. Beers went to her room and gave him about $5,000 worth of diamonds and jewelry. On the 13th Mr. Maber sent a colored boy to Rve for half au ounce ol laudanum. Mr. Dusenherry, the druggist, refused to sell it. Then Mr. Maher himself went to PortchesU-r and got it. A few hours later Mr. Maher sent a colored boy for eight ounces more aud obtained that also. Iu the afternoon ot the same day Mr. Maher took Mrs. Trainer's children to the depot and bought tickets lor New York. When the train arrived Maher jumped on, leaving the children standing on the platform. He went to Harrison’s, the next station below, and walked back to Rye. This time he had bet tors success and got uway with the children on a later train. After Le bad gone the whole neighborhood was thrown into consternation by the rumor that a woman had been FOUND DEAD in the hotel. It was Mrs. Beers. The ciiihl- r« n of a boarder had found her dying on her bed. Maher ci aid not'be found. Coroner Breunecke took charge of the bod}’. From the boa. dcr.s the Coroner learned that the dead woman owned a large amount of jew elry. Search was made for her property, but it could not be found. The neighbors aud boardcis laid the lody out, aod the Coroner placed the hotel in charge of Deputy Sheriff! Dusenberry. At ten o’clock everybody had I retired. Mr. Dnsenberry went to the room j containing the dead, and found it deserted. He turned out the. lights, locked the door, and took Lis position on the front stoop. At 1 o’clock a. m. Mr. Maher, accompanied by Ramsey, arrived on the last train from New York. When Mr. Dusenberry informed them of Mrs. Beers' death, they did not seem surprised, but asked to see the body. They were shown into the room, and both men began to shout and wail in a deafening manner. Alter their grief had subsided, Ma her said: “She is the only woman I ever loved.” Rims*y was speechless. MBS. BEERS’ JEWELS. Then Mr. Maher took & handful of jewels from Lin pantaloons pocket, aud said: “Ram- ! sey, I will give these to you.*’ Mr. Dusen- berry said: “Hold on; what right have yon to give that property to Mr. Ramsey?” Maher replied that Mrs. Beers had given it to him. As Mr. Dusenberry Lad no au thority to interfere, Ramsey pocketed the jewels. On the lltli of July, the next itay after Mrs. Beers' death, Coroner Rrennecke impan- nelled a jury and began an inquest The Coroner wanted a post-mortem examination to be made, but Mr. Ramsey objected. Dr. Starr was called upon to make a post-mortem, but Mr. Dusenberry asserts that Mr. Ramsey gave the doctor fitly dollars not to make it, and it was not made. Then Dr. Starr offered Dnsenbury hall the money, but he would not take it. At the inquest witnesses testified to the purchase ot the laudanum by Maher as above recited. Also as to the manner of his quit ting the village and the finding of the dead woman. All that is known concerning the manner or cause of Mrs. Been’ death is the nnco- roborated testimony of Maher. THE POISONinil He ti stifled that after she Lad gone, to her loom she asked him for cLloroform or laud anum, saying that she had habitually Liken that drug. That he gave her thirty drops from the first half ounce which be obtained, i nd setting the phial down on the bureau, went out of the room. Returning in a lew moments, he saw that she had emptied the bottle. He says that she then asked for more, and he sent for and obtained half a pint. He gave her, he said, thirty drops more, and set that bottle on the bureau also. Thin he went out again, and re turning as before, saw that she had taken about one-fourth of the half pint. Then he took the bottle out of the room, and started for New York with the children, At her request, sayiDg nothiug to any one about the condition iu which he had left Mrs. Beers. The Coroner's jury rendered the verdict that Mrs. Beers came to her death from an over dose of laudanum administered by herself. The Coroner refused to receive the verdict, and the jnry retired, returning a few moments later with the same. The body was then buried by Mrs. Beer’s friends. SUSPICION IN RYE. A few days ago the people of R;e and Poitchester wrote to Coroner Meeks of Mt. Vernon, that they were dissatisfied with the shallow investigation in the case, requesting him to thoroughly unravel the mystery. The Coroner had an interview with Maher, but could obtain no information beyond what is above related. Then the coroner called at Mrs. Trainer's residence to see Mr. Bamsey, but lhat gentleman could not be found. Neither did the Coroner obtain any informa tion regarding him. Yesterday a J4un report er called at Mrs. Trainer’s house, with the name result. District Attorney Briggs has taken the case in hand, and expresses the opinion that a crime has been committed. Warrants are in the hands of a deputy sheriff for the arrest of some persons connected with this case. Mrs. Beers took what is equivalent to seventy doses ot laudanum. —A*. Y. Sun.
