A Romance of Life in Easton Some
Eighty Years Ago.
from the Magazine of American History.
Some eighty years ago the now flourish
ing town of Easton, on the Delaware, wag
bat a small settlement in oue of the remote
, n d comparatively wild portions of Penn
eyivania. Not far from the Delaware a
double row of low-roofed, quaint-looking
stone houses formed the most populous part
of the settlement. Other dwellings, scat
tered about in in different directions, were
built in the same style, and evidently in
habited by the same sturdy aud primitive
Dutch population. Philadelphia, though at
that time but a village in comparison to
what it is now, was looked upon as a place
of luxury and corruption, dangerous to the
morals of youth.
The arrival of the new residents from the
city wasan event of importance enough in
itself to cause no small stir in that quiet
community. The rumor that a small house,
picturesquely situated at the edgo of a
wood some distance from the village, was
being fitted up for the new comers, was
eoou spread abroad aud gave rise to many
conjectures and surmises. The new furni
ture that paraded in wagons before the as
tonished eves of the settlers was different
from any that had been seen before; and,
though it would have been thought simple
enough, or even rude, at the present day,
exhibited too much of metropolitan taste
and luxury to meet their approval.
Then a gardener was employed several
days to set in order the surrounding plat of
ground and set out rose-bushes and orna
mental plaats; the fenoe was painted gavly,
and the inclosure secured by a neat gate.
A few days after a light traveling wagon
brought the tenants to the abode prepared
for them. Within the memory of a genera
tion hardly any occurrence had taken place
which excited so much curiosity. The doors
and windows were crowded with gazers, aud
the younger part of the population were
hardly restrained by parental authority from
rushing after the equipage. The woman,
who sat with a boy on the back seat, wore a
thick veil; but the pleasant face of the mid
dle-aged man, who looked about him, and
bowed courteously to the different groups,
attracted much attention.
The newcomer, it appeared, was a mem
ber of the colonial assembly, and had
brought his family to rusticate for a seasou
on the banks of the Delaware. This family
consisted of an English wife and a son
about 7 years old. They had beeu accus
tomed to the society of the rich and gay,
both in Philadelphia and in Europe, having
spent some time in Paris before their com
ing to this country.
The honest mynheers were little inclined
to be hasty in their Judgment. They pre
ferred consulting their wives, who wnileil
with no little patience far the Sahbath
morning, expecting them to have a full op
portunity of criticising their new neighbors.
They were doomed to disappointment;
none of the family was at the place of
meeting, although the practice of church
going w as one so time-honored that a jour
ney of ten miles on foot to attend religious
service was thought nothing of. and few,
even of the most worldly-minded, ventured
on au oroissioD. The non-appearance of
the si rangers was a dark omen. The next
day, however, the dames of the settlemmt
had an opportunity of seeing Mrs. Winton—
for so I shall call her—as she came out to
purchass a few articles of kitchen furui
ture. Her style of dress was altogether
different from theirs.
Instead of the hair pomatumed back
from the forehead, she wore it in natural
ringlet*, instead of the short petticoats in
vogue among the Dutch dames, a long and
flowing skirt set off to advantage a figure of
remarkable grace. At the first glance oue
could not but acknowledge her singular
beauty. Her form was faultless in sym
metry, and her features exquisitely regular,
the complexion being of a clear brown, set
off by luxuriant black hair and a pair of
brilliant dark eyes.
The simple-minded Dutch woman could
! not help thinking there was a want of innate
modesty in the bold, restless wanderings of
such eyes, bright as they wore, aud in the
perfect self-possession the English woman
snowed in her somewhat haughty carriage.
Her voice, too, though melodious, was not
low in its tones, and her laugh was merry
and frequently hearty. While they shook
their heads and were shy of conversation
with her, it was not a little wonderful to
notice the different effect produced on their
srouses. The honest Dutchmen surveyed
the handsome stranger with undisguised
admiration, evinced at first by a prolonged
stare, and on after occasions by such rough
courtesy as they found opportunity of show
ing with alacrity, offering to her any little
service that neighbors might render. The
women, on the other hand, became more
and more suspicious of her outlandish gear
aud her bewitching smiles, lavished witn
such profusion upon all who came near her.
Little, however, did the English woman
appear to care for neglect on the part of
those she evidently thought muoh inferior
to herself.
To make a long story short it soon became
kuown that the handsome stranger was a
coquette of the most unscrupulous sort; that
she was passionately fond of the admiration
of the other sex and was determined to ex
act the tribute due her charms even from
the sodb of the wilderness. She flirted des
perately with one after another, contriving
to impress each with the idea that he was
the happy individual especially favored by
her smiles. Her manners aud conversation
showed less and less regard for the opinion
of others or the rules of propriety.
Things were bad enough as they were,
but when the time came for Mr. Winton to
depart and take bis place in the assembly
the change was for the worse. His hand
some wife was left, with only her son, in
Easton for the winter. Her behavior was
now more scandalous than ever, and soon a
total avoidance of her by every other
woman in the place attested their indigna
tion. The coquette evidently held them in
great scorn, while she continued to receive
in a still more marked and offensive man
ner the attentions of the husbands whom,
she boasted, she had taught they had hearts
under tneir linsey-woolsey coats. Long
walks and rides through the woods, at
tended always by someone who had owned
the power of her beauty, set publio opinion
wholly at defiance, and toe company at her
fireside evening after evening was thought
to be not such as beoame a wife and mother
to receive.
i.ate in the afternoon of a beautiful day
In the early part of June, two or three of
the matrons of the village stationed them
lelves near the woods by which stood the
house of Mrs. Winton. Not far from this
*as a small pond where the boys amused
themselves in fishing, or bathed during the
neats of summer. The spot once occupied
t>y this little body of water is now the cen
tral portion of the town, and covered with
nest buildings of brick and stone. The
*omeu had oome forth to watch; nor was
■heir vigilance long unrewarded. They saw
Mrs. Winton, accompanied by one of her
Salients,dressed with a care that showed an
iniiety to please, walking slowly along the
orders of the woods.
The sun had set aud the gray sh adows of
"flight were creeping over the landscape,
et it was evidently her intention not to re
urn home. As it grew darker the two en
ered the woods, the female taking the arm
i her companion, and presently both dis
i*beared. “ There he goes!" exclaimed one
' r tho women, who watched, with fierce an
s er in her looks, for it was her husband sbe
iad seen. ‘‘l knew it! I knew he spent
(very evening with her!” “Shall we follow
■hem?” asked the other. “No! no! let us
to borne quick!” was the answer.
Such a scene as the night witneseed was
lever before enacted in that quiet village,
vt a late hour there was a meeting of many
lf the matrons iu the house of one of their
lumber. The curtains were closely drawn;
he light was so dim that the faces of those
vho whispered together could scarcely be
lisrerned. It struck midnight; they made
igns one to the other and the light was ex
loguished.
It was perhaps an hour or more after
fhen the same band of women left the
Ouse and took their way in profound
ilsuce along the road leading out of the
village. By a roundabout course, skirting
the small body of water above mentioned,
they came to the border of the woods. J ust
then the waning moon rose above the forest
tops, shedding a faint light over hill and
stream. It cculd then be seen that these
women, all wore a kind of mask of black
stuff. Their course was directed toward the
English woman’s house, which they ap
proached with stealthy aud noiseless steps.
A few moments of silence passed after thev
had disappeared, and then a wild shriek
was heard, and others fainter and fainter,
like the voice of one in agony struggling to
•ry out, and stifled by powerful hands.
The women rushed from the woods, drag
ging with them their helpless victim, whom
they had gagged so that she could not even
suDplicate their mercv. Another crv was
presently heard—the' wail of a terrified
child. The little boy, roused from sleep by
the screams of his mother, ran toward her
captors, aud, throwing himself on his knees,
b >ggea for her in piteous accents and with
streaming teurs. “Take him away!” cried
several together, and one of their number,
snatching up the child, ran off with him at
her utmost speed, and did not return.
The others proceeded quickly to their mis
sion of vengeance. Dragging the helpless
dame to the pond, they rushed luto it, heed
less of risk to themselves, till they stood in
deep water. Then each, in turn, seizing her
enemy by the shoulders, plunged her in, head
and all, crying os she did so, “This is for my
husband!” “And this for mine!” “This for
mine!” was echoed, with the plunges in quick
succession, till the work of retribution was
accomplished, and the party hurried to
shore. Btartied by a noise as of someone
approaching, the disguised avengers fled,
leaving their victim on the bank, and lost
no time in hastening homeward. The dawn
of day disclosed a dreadful catastrophe.
Dame Winton was found dead beside the
water. The occurrence caused great com
motion in Easton, os it was but natural it
should, hut it was never discovered with
certainty who were the perpetrators of the
murder.
HER STOCK IN TRADE
Sympathetic Gowns to be Worn In a
Divorce Suit.
From the New York Recorder.
Although a woman’s gowns frequently
deserve and receive honorable mention, like
a brand of baking powder at a national ex
hibit, there are only three times in her life
—it may be four if she is an American—
when they are entered for the blue ribbon.
Those are Important occasions, and these
gowns are the result of anxious thought and
laborious research in the fields of gown lit
erature.
First, the dress she wears as a debutaute;
secondly, the wedding gown. The thuu
gown is worn by the young mother when
she receives the relatives and friends wh
have come to offer their congratulations to
her and their gifts to her first-born child.
Debutante, bride and mother! A woman
may bo all these, and in America she
frequently is somethiug more—a divorce.
Here frocks are not important factors, and
I am irresistibly reminded of a trunkfull of
dresses I saw last week which are to play a
prominent part in a big divorce case soon.
“What a heap of pretty frocks,” I said.
“Yes,” my friend replied. “Horribly ex
pensive, and I couldn’t well afford them,
either, but business is business, you know
these are my stock in trade. They’re very
sympathetic gowns, I must say. The de
signer caught my idea perfectly.”
“Sympathetic gowns! Stock in trade!
What do you mean?” I gasped.
“What do 1 mean! Why, stupid, these
are to wear at the trial.”
“O, dear me! All those?”
“Yes, all tbose. Now, here’s this black
one,*’ said she, talking like Rosiua Yokes in
one of her soliloquies. “I shall wear this
the first day. It makes me look pale, and
has a crapy, mournful air about it that will
make a favorable first impression on the
court. I wish them to understand that the
defendant has wrecked my young life.
See?”
“Well, this red gownl Doesn’t this bris
tle all over with determination? Isn’t‘win
or die’ fluttering from every fold? I shall
wear this the day we make the biggest fight.
It looks so aggressive.
“Now here’s this white cloth. Very sim
ple, you observe. Silver girdle. Broad hat
with feathers. Fluffy boa. Sweet simplic
ity. Girlish loveliness. That’s for the day
my counsel sums up.
“That gray—9ad, dove-colored, Quaker
ish looking. I shall wear that—with tears—
iu case we seem to be getting beaten.
“This is a brown cloth to wear upon all
the common, ordiuary occasions. It is made
in a sensible way, with this business-like
jacket. There is a set of silver tablets goes
with it, also a vinaigrette. The tablets for
any random ideas I might have which should
be instantly jotted down, the vinaigrette in
case I should faiut. It may be reerssary to
faint, you know. Some judges are so obdu
rate.
“i’his notebook, I fancy, will make a
great hit with the jury. Y-e-s, it did cost
a pretty penny, but 1 hope the results will
more than compensate for the outlay.
“You see, one of Ted’s strong points of
defense is that I was so extravagant he
couldn’t stand it. The idea! Well, now,
any jury of average intelligence seeing me
with this little book will say: ‘Dear me!
She couldn’t be so awfully extravagant.
Such methodical, business-like habits don’t
go with extravagance. No. indeed!’
“That’s what the jury wili say, and I
shall come out with flying colors and vic
tory perched upon my banners. And why?
Well, of course, the fact that my side is
right, and Ted’s is wrong, has something to
do with it, but chiefly, my dear, chiely be
cause of my gowns.
“The jury won’t know it; the judge
won’t know it. When did a man know
anything about a woman or her strategies?
And between you and me, the less they
know the better. What they don’t know
won’t hurt them, aud it is really selfish of a
woman to worry a man with trivial mat
ters when he has such grave aud important
cases on his mind.
“Going? Well, wish me luck with my
gowne. This is mv way of casting bread
upon the waters.”

MASCOTS AND TALISMEN.
Lucky Objects Which People Carry to
Insure Good Fortune.
From the New York Recorder.
Almost every one has a belief in luck.
Some oall it fortune. Some go so far as to
describe it as providence. A lucky hit, a
fortunate chance, a providential escape—
these are everyday phrases by all sorts and
conditions of men. There is a story told of
a clergyman of the Church of England who,
when be was going to preach, always con
veyed a little old-fashioned bookmarker to
the pulpit and laid it upon the desk. It bad
been made by his grandmother years be
-and had the words “turn over”
worked iu the green (now faded) silk upon
it. The clergyman had possessed it from
boyhood, ami it represented to him a com
mand to proceed, to strive to succeed, it
was his mascot, his luck.
Numbers of people keep in their pocket
books a little piece of dried-up stuff wrapped
in a piece of tissue paper. Ask what it is
you will be told it is the tipof a beef tODgue.’
It is carried for luck. In the records of the
lost property offices that tongue tip is often
mentioned. It has frequently served as a
means of identification, tor the superstition
is that the purse which contains the “tip of
a tongue that never told a lie” can never be
lost. And talking of purses suggests the
ancient oustorn or handsel. To make any
one a present of a pocket-bock without
having first placed in it a com of some
value is to give poverty instead of wealth,
and the fortune, or luck, will be in propor
tion to the value of the handsel.
In England and Scotland no beggar will
start upon his tramping excursion in the
spring witnout half a horseshoe concealed
somewhere about his person. This is known
throughout the canting fraternity as “beg
gar’s luck.” The once famous King of the
Beggars, Bamfyldo Moore Carew, was
never without this bit of old iron, as is told
by himself in his autobiography. The old
iron theory of luck is mainly practiced by
people whose business or inclination leads
them to wander. There is a Frenoh actress
now (raveling in this country who is never
without an old nail in her pocket. Among
French and Russian actresses especially the
"clou” is indispensable to good fortune.
The oid idea that to carry a caul, that is,
the membranous sac in which a child is
sometimes boro, is to be proof against dan
ger by water has led to frauds Innumerable.
A perfect caul is a great rarity, yet were
they to be believed half the dealers In mar
iners’ necessities in any port in the world
will oxpress themselves as able and willing
to procure one at two days’ notice. Sol
diers’ luck is generally dependent upon the
possession of an old button cut from the
coat of a dead soldier, aud if It were from
an enemy so muen the luckier. This fancy
exists in all European armies, and it is quite
possible that among the soldiers of our own
small army some similar superstition ex
ists. A decidedly quaint superstition in
this city is cooks’ luck. It is a por
tion of a bowl of au old silver spoon. It had
been worn so thin with age that the handle
had first been broken off and then the bowl
had split in two. A certain chef in New
York carries the remaining half of the
bowl “for luck.” And he would not part
with it for anything. That a tailor should
he a trifle superstitious is not very surpris
ing, perhaps, but the object of their fetish
worship is peculiar. A piece of white
clarified beeswax is the favorite. Possibly
It is supposed to represent the toughuess of
the thread used, hut at any rate in many a
snip’s pocket will be found the bit of wax
carefully preserved, never used except to
touch with the tips of the fingers liofore be
ginning any fresh work in order to insure a
lucky conclusion.
“Shepherds’ luck” consists of the thyroid
bone of a lamb. The tiny, partially ossi
fied cartilage is carefully abstracted from
the first bom of a flock when it is killed. It
must be the first born or it is of no use.
Every lamb born thereafter is rubbed
gently with this to keep the witches away,
and if a sheep or lamb falls sick the touoh
of this talisman is of more value than any
medicine.

A HISTORIC STANDARD.
Discovery of the Flag Held by Lincoln
at Gettysburg In 1864.
From the Philadelphia Press.
Adjt. Gen. McClelland has been making
an overhauling of his department at Har
risburg, wbiob has been extended to an ex
amination of the musty relics stored in the
department's rooms in the capitol. He dis
covered the flag and staff held by President
Lincoln when at Gettysburg on July 4,
1864, he described the government as one
“of the people, by the people, and for the
people. ”
While delivering these immortal words
he held in bis right baud the staff and flag
that was so unexpectedly discovered by
Adjt. Gen. McClellan last week. The flag
is a heavy silk regulation standard of tho
state, and consists of a blue field with the
state coat of arms on one side and the coat
of arms of the nation on the reverse.
It was found in a storeroom with two
other stands of colors of the First Pennsyl
vania Militia, which had been issued dur
ing the war to a Pittsburg regiment which
was the nucleus of the present famous
Duquesne Grays of Pittsburg, and the
Eighteenth Regiment, N. G. T.
What disposition wili be made of those
historic colors has not been determined, but
they will probably receive a post of honor
in the flag room at the capitol. The
standards are in a perfect state of preserva
tion. The one held by Mr. Lmooln will
probably be placed in a cabinet by himself.
The flag was examined by scores of visi
tors, and it was suggested tbat tbe standard
be taken to Chicago and placed on exhibi
tion during the world’s fair in The
suggestion was made to Gen. McClelland,
who seid that he would submit the proposi
tion to Gov. Pattison.
UNITED AFTER MANY YEARS.
A Mother Finds Two Sons Who Did
Not Know They Were Brothers.
From the New York Preis.
A mother, after many years of searching,
has found her two sms, one of whom had
never known her, and two brothers who
had met only as strangers have been brought
together.
On May 3 a paragraph appeared in a daily
newspaper of this city asking for any in
formation concerning the whereabouts of
Charles E. Prescott, Edwin Prescott or
Harriet Prescott. In 1869 Charles Prescott
lived with his wife ou Sixteenth street, near
Sixth avenue.
In that year their first son was born, and
shortly after birth the father placed the
child in the care of Mrs. Philiy Riley, of
No. 744 Greenwich street, agreeing to pay
S3O a month for its cure. A year later
another son, Edwin, was born. Unexpect
edly Mrs. Riley, moved from the city, and
almost simultaneously Prescott changed his
residence. In this manner all communica
tion with the gaardian of the first born was
cat off. The second born left home eight
years ago.
The two brothers, strangers to each other,
met while at work in the city. Thev did
not discover their relationship until brought
face to face by answering in person Mrs.
Riley’s advertisement of May 3. Both were
overjoyed at meeting, and at once repaired
to the home of their longT-Tost mother, where
they received a royal welcome.
