Card -From Mr. Charles P. Byrd
1 ouching His Divorce From
His Wife,
HER CHARACTER IS SPOTLESS
anil He Say* “She XVVt^Alwaya Be |o
Me » Pure and Memory,
Clouded Only by MUfortane”
—A Very Tonolilng Cent.
Atlanta, July 23.—(Speda-1.)—An
other chapter was added to the Byrd
divorce case today. Last week the an
nouncement by a dispatch from New
York that Charles P. Byrd, who is a
leading publisher land printer, fa-ad been
granted a divorce from his wife, Pearl
Bryan Byrd, created a sensation, un
faithfulness wus the ground given for
the divorce, and 11. II. Rockwell, n
former business associate of Mr.
Byrd’s, was mentioned as the co-re
spondent.
Mrs. Byrd Is the daughter of Mrs.
Mary E. Bryan, 'the well known South
ern authoress. A year or »o tago tfhe
went to New York for medical treat
ment. Suspicion faad never assailed her
fair nmme, and When she went away
sho left behind her an unsullied repu
tation as a wife and mother.
When (the report of the divorce was
received Jt was a shock not only to the
friends of the family, but to society, in
the beat circles of which Mra. Byrd
%uis a favorite.
Since *the publication of -the divorce
Mr. Byrd faus eathl nothing of the cir
cumstances./tout allowed the published
reports to go as they were until today,
when the gave the fioTIowilng statement
of the sad facts 1n tfae case to the pub
lic:
"Atlanta, Oa., ■July 21, 1894.—I wish
to say a word In regard to the divorce
which, us has been published, I have
obtained from my wffe, Perl Bryan
Byrd. «t Is a most peculiar case. 1
believe my wife to be a perfectly pure
and -Innocent woman. Owing to the
diseased state of her mind she had be-
oome possessed with 'the Idea that she
could no longer •Ifve with mo. She u*.d.
everything In her powdr to procure a
divorce. SJbout a. year ago ahe enter* '
a suit against me, which she coulu
not prosecute because she had no
grounds. As her physician hud In
formed me of her mortal' condition, I
bore with her, 'hoping she would be
cured. She ‘twice attempted to take her
life last summer, owing 'to her morbid
oondbtion. She continued to insist upon
the divorce, and* I begged 'her to wait
three years and allow me to cot it on
the ground of desertion, tout this her
‘poor nest'.ess mind forbade. She threat
ened to do something desperate—to
tAke her llfe-^f I did not oome at once
and take the divorce. At times gho
recognized her unsound mental state.
She went willingly to the asylum for
the deranged at AmRyville, where she
remained for six months. Hoping she
was better, I brought her home last
November, tout soon found ghe was not
cured, and she went back to the care
of Dr. *Witoey, though not to the asy
lum, wlhlch sh.e objected to. He visited
her at her bearding house, 234 West
Fourteenth ctrcot. 'She was more than
ever bent on obtaining a divorce and
frequently "wrote Threatening to take
tier life and to publish everything in
jurious She oouukl think of if It was not
procured. I d-o -not 'believe for a mo
ment that any intima'te relations ever
existed between hert 'and Rockwell.
She fau* not ffeen tolm for over a year
and Was not held any communication
with him. She did not elope with him.
I .put her on -the train myself, and
Rockwell was in Atlanta during the
whole of her stay *n Now York. He
and I were bath -boarding at. the Kim
ball house and eatiing at -the same table
daily. .. ....
"I have given her the divorce with
the hope of satisfying her mind and
preventing her doing anything des
perate. I thought I could manage to
do -this without any publicity, and thus
save the humiliation which all connect
ed with the unfortunate affair are now
suffering. After it was obtained she
sterned calmer. She toad> been leading
the life of a recluse, bu-t I got
go out with me every evening while I
remained In New -York. She was, as
she has always been, fr-end.y nnd
kind, seeming to look on me hbr
best friend. She appeared not tore-
:illze In the least the <Hi«raco attached
to the divorce, and -waa to aweeLand
unconscious that I did rtot. « nd , "«£ r
can, attach any idea of E'uU to Tier,
tthe will always be to me a pure and
sweet memory, clouded only by muror-
<une. due. ns I know, Co her mental
malady. _J0hurles P. Byrd.
WHO'LL BE MAYOR?
The Exposition Mayor is One of More
Than Ordinary Importance.
Atlanta, July 22.—(Special.)—Who will
be the exposition mayor Is a question
that Is causing a great many Atlanta
people a great deal tof talk and worry.
The election does not occur until De
cember. tout several candidates nave al
ready taken the field, nnd others have
been urged Btrongly to enter. Hon.
Porier King anil Col. John H. Seals ere
the candidate* nbw on the boards, but
neither one of them appears to have
the call. In fact many are unalterably
bf posed to either, because p .hr»/ say they
ore not Just exactly what Atlanta,
ought to have for an exposition major.
This Bort of sentiment has resulted In
systematic efforts to get other men In
the field, but so far it oeeras that the
men who lessen, the peculiar qualities
popularly supposed to be necessary to
make a firet-clasa exposition mayor de
cline to heed these calls. The nmbl-
tp.us cllinn looks to the mayor to lead
th; pi occasion on all occasions during
the exposition.* to make public adtrenncB
by til.* score, after-dinner speeches vdth-
out limit nnd do the sodety act on n
scale equal to an rfllco of state. To do
this It Is necessary to have a mayor
•with a Ionic bank account. The salary
of the office is hardly enough th pay
house rent If the exposition mayor
comes up to expectations, md therefore
«om« ptbple are losing sleep on the sub
ject.
The strangest part of it Is that all
those who have so far been tempted
have thrust the honor from them with
think*. "Whether this is because they
would rather have a gallery seat ot
some other fellow’s expense nr because
of cth*r reasons hard to say Just yet
At any rate there have already been
an even half dozen prominent citizens
who might have had a clear held, but
would no» enter. The latest tr. fhto list
Is Mr J. G. Oglesby, a leading wbcle-
e •’«* merchant, and for. several years
president of the charrfber of commerce,

THE RIGHT OF REDEMPTION.
Little Rock, July 22.—A caso of much
Interest to persons who Wave been
lending money in Arkansas wns
brought to the btHentton of the su
preme court yefcterdy afternoon, al
though si motion to advunce tho oase
for hearing out of the regulhr order
wus denied. There are two curcs pend
lug In the court, In which mortgagers
claim the right of redemption emeyear
after sale by tho court, and 'that tho
hule conhot be made under the morl-
gvt'go except at a price twb-thlrds of
the appra'isement.
It Is Oimceded thuit all -mortgage 6.lies
out of court are subject {o redomption
and appraisement, but nearly all wiles
under mortgages are now made
through the chancery court nnd have
been made without the pns-yenr’a re
demption stipulation nd without ap
praisement . Several weeks ago Judge
Caldwell of the United States circuit
court nustafned the. contention made
for -redemption* and appraisement.
Should the -appeal be sustained all the
sales mde .in the state for several yearn
papt will toe annulled.
