Calvin Snyder Dead. For Years a Familiar Figure on City's Streets. Calvin Snyder, colored, died at his home at Hurley last evening, aged 90 years. For many years he was a familiar figure on the streets of Kingston. He was best known as "Cal," and for more than a generation he spent his time in peddling sassafras and other roots and herbs, which he gathered on the hills near Hurley. Prior to that time he was a well digger, and many of the wells about town were dug by him. During the latter years of his life he was rather feeble, but he showed traces of a vigorous constitution. He was deaf for many years, and being unable to hear what was taking place around him, he acquired the habit of sometimes shouting at the top of his voice, and at other times of talking in a whisper. One son and four daughters survive him. The funeral will take place at his late residence at Hurley tomorrow afternoon at 3:30 o'clock. https://d1y502jg6fpugt.cloudfront.net/73445/archive/files/d17cff8579c05e024d626d5c8849d010.jpg?Expires=1782950400&Signature=fpIagY7PRr0YJBhXgyktZBGRLAmkV0HU9jNQ3T7sBECmluSTgltjOvHQUf5a2efYoxHHTjju7alVArd53FalH1de7Md%7ECgz2j5md05t1AD6CmTSTjlA-BvPguOoXUOrSWmw3FSQkg2I-ihpV2fy3-Ox1Is-Y43aJtuPodjPdC1nLdqJ%7EjG87hG8ImP%7EYJlI5sEM%7E8623lN7bJ7lUk2%7EUcLSkJ8aZanajtbfAQyzDOOmZByMxIxATyzNDkZXOoOuBvCIPNX0TKxI6FWXLKlEZSmyg2eTngWimJmNeHTRkevoxxoK0bp4xgRdtiaQDYYkFtDz6EmFoUc93EhFbyFOzvQ__&Key-Pair-Id=K6UGZS9ZTDSZM 9d750cc7ec07f4981b55d3f4d655d844 https://d1y502jg6fpugt.cloudfront.net/73445/archive/files/2a541d02ffae20b21e47effdfa1f4afe.jpg?Expires=1782950400&Signature=kSUZFgeQkJDBQeMr3LtOenJtDrc1CUui0eHK7L%7E%7Er2RyFiQ7pYLxogNHsOEV5r97pxiDCXcmdMiVSYmeiHuP%7EarYZrOSKh6bLRlXa7JKVyMDQ-UatuWVn1MI9W9geA8eEaeSGUgKsLqGLJILac1yB%7ENgQvAbyfKU1LYj24DmKxbj3Wh1p6O8cxKDORox7ZCmVBh-GsLswM6YBnmDpy2QG1M0HsYhs41pXLE340hblqQNfPgzXw1Sd%7E6I4mMfQvJ3Gxy7qx0L85hkkiG6LAo%7EMPp%7EsszDzyYwGubY4iAA3BC0AmRO8bUSyHt0PfXbilpEjIRC7RuUs2WBP66zwTuosw__&Key-Pair-Id=K6UGZS9ZTDSZM cc9a37d81e5a2fbf8cc126e9df5065f8 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource People of Hurley Subject The topic of the resource Newspaper article about a hearing application to send two "colored" girls to a state institution. Description An account of the resource People of Old Hurley Call Davises a Menace Hearing Held on Application to Send Two Colored Girls to State Institutions. Both Illegitimate and One Names Uncle as Father of her Baby. Life on Eagle's Nest is not all sunshine and roses nor is it marked by all the comforts and pleasures with which the people who live in the valley are endowed, nor are the Nesters possessed of all the charms of intellect and otherwise as their neighbors, according to testimony given on Saturday before Judge Joseph M. Fowler at county court chambers in proceedings instituted by Miss Martha Davis, the country agent for dependent children, to have two colored Eagle’s Nest children named Davis committed to some state institutions for mental defectives. Children Are Like Topsy. The children whose commitment to some institutions is being sought are May, aged 24 years, and Elizabeth, aged 9 years. As disclosed by the evidence, these children, like Topsy, “just growed.” And there is also another little Davis girl, born last December, who is the daughter of May Davis, and she is like Topsy, too. The Honor Role of Hurley. Because the good people of old Hurley believed there was danger of more growth of the Topsy variety, they signed a petition in which they described the Davises, big and little, “as a menace to the community,” and asked such official action as would not permit their “unrestricted liberty.” The petition was presented to the town board, and according to Justice of the Peace Charles A. Snyder, who was not among the petition-signers, he turned over the petition to Miss Martha Davis, the county agent for dependent children. The petition filed with the town authorities of Hurley which resulted in the proceedings is signed by sixty-four residents of Hurley. The petition states “Whereas, we, citizens of the town of Hurley, have at heart the welfare of the whole town and of society in general, we hereby respectfully bring to the attention of the town board of the town of Hurley the following facts relative to the well-being of the locality in which we live: “Within the town of Hurley, in the neighborhood known as the Eagle’s Nest, there reside in the family of one John Hen Davis (colored), his half sister, Belle Davis, and two illegitimate children May (aged 25) and Lizzie (aged 12). These three colored females are regarded by all familiar with the family to be greatly deficient mentally, and therefore unable to take care of themselves. It is also known that at times they do not receive adequate support from John Hen Davis. Moreover there was born in October of May Davis a girl baby, Ruth, whose father is unknown. “Wherefore, we petition the town board that immediate and sufficient action be taken which shall guarantee the putting away in a proper institution of these colored females who are now a menace to the community and who we believe will continue to be such as long as they are permitted their unrestricted liberty.” The petition is signed by the following well known residents of Hurley: W. A. Warren M. T. E. DeWitt T. D. Houghtaling John P. Woolsey J. H. Thielpape Evelyn Snyder Benjamin F. Dunn Mary H. Dunn Mary C. F. Woolsey J. H. Hasbrouck Maria D. W. Newkirk Elizabeth DeWitt Anna DeWitt Robert Cole Abram Elmendorf Mrs. P. P. Brink Mrs. A. B. Myer Josephine D. Ten Eyck Ophelia R. Ostrander Charles DuMond Mrs. H. A. Rowe Hobert Rowe Alfred B. Myer H. G. Smith George P. DuMond Clara S. DuMond Clarence T. Freer Edna J. Freer F. Tobey. Jr. Susan F. Tobey Emma E. Lockwood Charles W. Cutler Sarah M. Cutler C. N. DeWitt Anna O. DeWitt C. D. Brown Alice D. Brown Edwin C. Brown Minard W. Myer B. K. Markle Ada H. T. E. Houghtaling Alice M. Van Sickle James Deits John L. Ostrander Etta M. Myer Hilaria Johnston Jennie S. French Lawrence H. French Harry D. Freer Silas Elmendorf Susie Elmendorf Mary Letsher Mrs. J. H. Hiller Morris D. Earle Mae C. Earle Mrs. J. A. Lockwood T. H. Newkirk Eugene Arnst James A. Lockwood Floyd A. Markle Catherine E. Elmendorf S. F. Ten Eyek Harry F. Johnston Mary E. Johnston May Knew Her Father. District Attorney Traver conducted the proceedings on behalf of the Ulster county agent for dependent children: the Davis girls and their uncle “John Hen” were represented by Francis C. Merritt. Miss Martha Davis stated she first heard of the Eagle’s Nest children two years ago but never visited their home, which is in the Negro settlement on Hurley mountain known as Eagle’s Nest until December last when she went there for the purpose of learning who was the father of May’s child. May said her uncle Luke Davis, was the father. The home conditions were poor but clean, she did not object to the poor conditions she found but she did object to the moral situation. The house was well built and consisted of one large room and a bedroom downstairs: there may have been a room upstairs. Miss Davis did not know what provisions were in the house. She talked with May Davis and also with her mother, Belle Davis, but Belle made practically no answers. May, however, said her own father had been a man named Sampson. The next she saw the children was at her office in the county building on St. Patrick's Day, when they were examined for about two hours. Most of the questions were saved by Mrs. Green, the stenographer for the county agent. Information on which Mrs. Davis based her application had been furnished to her by Mrs. S. Frank Ten Eyck, Charles A. Snyder and others. The County Agent’s Duty. There was nothing objectionable in the physical conditions, said Mrs. Davis on cross examination except that the house was poorly furnished. She thought Elizabeth, the youngest child, was under-nourished although she had seen many bashful children, she never had noticed that colored children were particularly different. May had not shown any reluctance to answering questions. Miss Davis said she did not claim to be a judge of the mental condition of children, but it was her duty to see the children are properly cared for “if these children had been in my care,” she said, this petition would not be necessary. Not being in my care, it is my duty to bring them to the attention of the proper authorities.” The Petition Disclosed. Among those who had complained to her of the little child born to May Davis had been one of the justices of the peace, Mrs. Ten Eyck, Matthew T. E. DeWitt and others. “But nearly the whole town complained,” she added. “They signed a petition,” but she could not tell M Merritt what names were on the petition. District Attorney Traver thereupon produced the petition which Miss Davis identified, and Judge Fowler received it in evidence. The fact that both May and Elizabeth were illegitimate was evidence to her mind that moral conditions were bad, she said, in addition to the fact that the same condition applied to May&#39;s child. Enjoyed The Church”Feeds” The Reverend Lawrence H French, Pastor of the Hurley Reform Church, who had been subpoenaed as a witness, said he had had some opportunity to observe the Davis children and also had visited their home. His first visit was in the midsummer of 1921, and he went again a few days after the birth of May's baby, when he had taken some [ ] and other nourishing food because he had been told she was not supplied with the kind of food which her condition required. The home and furnishings were poor but clean. There was some shyness on May's part during the conversation, but not much shyness as he had anticipated. Mr. French said he had signed the petition that had been presented to the town board. The Davis children had not come to church except on special occasions when there had been a “feed” afterward, “and they certainly enjoyed the feed,” he added. Actions Show Mental Deficiency On cross-examination, the Rev. Mr. French said the special entertainments were attended by white and colored children alike, and the white children enjoyed the “feed” just as much as the colored ones. In his pastoral work at various places he had visited many homes of the poor and they were not always clean. He had found that where the minds of the occupants were bright there was a general inclination toward cleanliness but not always. Mental deficiency on the part of May and Elizabeth and also on the part of their mother, Belle Davis, had been shown. In his opinion, by their reaction to conversations, Elizabeth was especially silent. The family lived in the woods, away from other people, and there was not as great opportunity for them to play with other children as if they lived in Hurley, but there were other children also at Eagle’s Nest. From their slowness to answer all questions, whether at home, in church or in the street, he had formed an opinion of their mental deficiency. Personally, he had no knowledge of any depredations the family had committed, but he had the testimony of many members of the community that they were a public menace. From the speech of people of Hurley, he believed they were a menace, and that opinion was based largely on the moral conditions existing in the family. “Don't you know that Hurley is a community where such matters when they are talked over never grow less but always grow greater as each person talks?” asked Mr. Merritt. Whatever opinion the minister may have had on that subject was not disclosed because an objection to the question was sustained by Judge Fowler. Lessons Unlearned in 10 Minutes Mrs. Annette Leverich of 19 Lindsay Ave. Kingston, teacher at the Hurley school, said that May had entered school when, according to information furnished by Mrs. Van Demark, she was 13 years old and remained four years, but she appeared to be no more than 7 or 8 years old. In four years Mrs. Leverich was able to teach her to write her name and she also learned to repeat the “Jack and Jill” rhyme. It was necessary to tell her when to leave her seat and when to go to it, and to tell her to go out of the school at the noon recess. She was not able to do anything in school and did not mingle with any of the other children. “I would have kept her in school anyway,” said Mrs. Leverich, “because the surroundings were better, but when she became 17 years old I was told by Mr. De Witt and the truant officer that her uncle, John Henry, wouldn’t let her stay. “Elizabeth was there two years under me, and for the two years under the supervision of another teacher. She made no progress whatever. What she is taught now, she doesn’t know 10 minutes from now. Lizzie would mingle with other children, but May would not. “The other children were not intimate with May, but they are so fond of Elizabeth they give her food from their own dinner baskets. She has only squares of bread in her pail covered with something that looks like lard. We furnish her with cocoa, milk, sandwiches, frankfurters, and other things, and personally I often take things to her to eat because I think both children are under-nourished. “Now and then we find she has stolen food from other lunch pails and baskets and she says May has told her to do it and to bring the food home.” The Teacher’s Conclusions There are other children from the Eagle’s Nest attending the Hurley school, she said on cross examination. Concerning her own desire in the matter, she said: “I would desire them to be put in an institution where they will be well cared for, not because they live on Eagle’s Nest or any other place because where a child lives is nothing as long as she is well cared for. “While I never have made a study of the subject, I would consider that a child is mentally deficient when you can&#39;t teach her anything. It is impossible to teach May the difference between her right and left hand, or to do what other children do. Both children are uncleanly. The people of Hurley furnished them with good clothing and underclothing, but they wear the clothing until it is filthy. “John Hen”—“Mebbe 35.” John Henry Davis, head of the debatable household, was called by District Attorney Traver and said he was unmarried. Belle Davis, the mother of May and Elizabeth, was his cousin and he lived in the same house and supports the household. Belle never married either. She has two children. When May was born, “John Henn” was living in the house and Belle was cared for by his mother and Dr. T. J. Bryant, both of whom are dead. “John Hen” said he did not know who was the father of Belle&#39;s two children. He was away from home when Elizabeth was born. He did not know exactly how old May was, whether she was over or under twelve, but he knew she went to school for a year or two. May had a baby last fall, he said. She was not married then. “They tell me my brother, Luke, is the father,” he said. “How old are you?” asked District Attorney Traver. “Oh I dun’no.” said “John Hen.” “Mebbe I'm thirty-five. Perhaps I ain't that.” “Perhaps you're not over twenty-five,” suggested Mr. Traver. “Perhaps I ain't,” said “John Hen,” “I dunno.” “Your white hair made me think you might be older?” suggested Mr. Traver. “O, I had the measles once,” said “John Hen.” “Then I got gray hair.” But He Votes. “Brother Luke,” he said, lives “all over. First he's here, then he's there. I can't tell nothing about him.” “Do you know what day of the week this is?” inquired Mr. Traver. As the question was not answered, Mr. Traver repeated it several times. Finally, John Henry said it was “Saturday.” He explained that he knew all the time what day it was, but he had not understood the question until it was repeated the last time by the stenographer. He was born and always lived, he said, at Eagle’s Nest; he knew “most everybody” around Hurley and voted there. “Who is president now?” inquired Mr. Traver. “President of the U. S.” said John Henry. “President of the U. S. now? I can't think of his name.” “Who is governor?” inquired Mr. Traver. “I don't recollect that I heard his name mentioned,” said “John Hen.” “Do you know who is United States senator?” continued Mr. Traver. “I did hear of his name, but I forgot it,” said John Henry. “Do you know who your town supervisor is?” asked Mr. Traver. “I forgot who is supervisor,” he replied. Why Belle Was Absent. John Henry said he never had been arrested. Belle, he explained, could not be in court because she had to stay home and take care of May's baby. There was always plenty to eat in the house, pork, bread and “the like o’ that,” all of which he bought out of the $2 a day wages he gets when he works. “What do you think of May and her baby?” asked Mr. Traver. “it can't be helped now,” he said “I blame him.” Cross-examined, he said he owned the Eagle’s Nest home and had no other home. He never had asked the poormaster for assistance and did not desire help now; he was willing to bear the disgrace and try to help the others. May Acts Sluggish. May Davis was called to the stand by District Attorney Traver. Her answers to his questions were very faint and there was generally again a long pause before she gave an answer. Most of her answers were in monosyllables and her general appearance and attitude were at best sluggish. She said she had lived in Hurley a year and was twenty-four years old: her mother was living and her name was Belle: she lived with Belle and uncle John Henry. She said she did not know when her baby was born but knew “Uncle Luke” was the father. Asked if she knew Mrs. Leverich she nodded affirmatively and pointed to Mrs. Leverich across the table: said she had seen her at school and had gone to school three years. She could count, she said, but did not know how far. Asked if she could count to ten she nodded her head. But she could not read or write she said. When District Attorney Traver placed a sheet of paper before her and handed her a pencil telling her to write her name, the girl without effort wrote her name clearly. She also called correctly more than half of such letters of the alphabet as he had written on another sheet of paper. District Attorney Traver said he wanted to be entirely fair, not only to the two children but also to The People of the State of New York, whom he represented, but he did not care to go into certain details of the home life. Cross-examined by Mr. Merritt, May said she had plenty to eat at home and Uncle John treated her good. Uncle John would not let Uncle Luke come around the house and nobody else came there. She had worked for Uncle Luke about a year ago. Uncle Luke then living in another house in Eagle's Nest and on a certain occasion she remembered Uncle Luke was drunk. The girl was not examined at length. Apparently slow of comprehension at first, she answered later questions more freely and with more than a simple “Yes” or “No.” Younger Child Brighter Nine-year-old Elizabeth Davis was called to the stand by Mr. Traver who spoke in lowered tones to the child whose eyes at first rolled around as if she was frightened, but she answered his questions more promptly when he spoke in his usual tone of voice. She said we lived “up at the house,” had been going to school “a month,” was ten years old, and she could not read, write or count. Uncle John and Uncle Luke also lived at the house, but nobody else except “Baby Ruth.” In going to school, she always walked with Catherine Hasbrouk and her colored girl. She always had plenty to eat—meat and bread and […] and tea. Most of the child's answers were made by a shake of the head. Belle Davis Will Testify Mr. Traver said he would like to have Belle Davis take the witness stand before examining the doctors, and “John Hen” and his counsel promised she would appear at the legal hearing when May could remain at home to take care of her baby. Judge Snyder on the Stand Justice of the Peace Charles A. Snyder was called to the stand by Mr. Merritt and he had never known John Henry to apply to the town for support; he always worked when he could get it, and been law abiding, owns his property and pays his taxes. Judge Snyder said he had not signed the petition but has talked over the case with Mrs. Martha Davis and turned the petition over to her. He had been to the Eagle’s Nest house and found it clean. He had no complaint to make against John Henry. Constable Decided Opinion Mr. Merritt said he would call some of the other petitioners as witnesses and asked Constable Walter R. Van Demark to take the stand. Mr. Van Demark said he wanted it understood that he had not signed the petition. “Then you are willing to tell us what the reputation of John Henry Davis is from the speech of people?” asked Mr. Merritt. “Certainly,” said VanDemark. “What is it?” ask Mr. Merritt. “It's most bad, on every subject you can mention,” was the surprising answer. Mr. VanDemark said he had no interest in the case except as Constable to that District. Attorney Traver’s request was complied with, that the Davises should be in court. Twice he had had warrants for the arrest of “John Hen,” for failing to send the children to the school. The hearing will be continued next Saturday.

Title A name given to the resource Davis Children are Defectives Subject The topic of the resource Institutionalization of the Davis girls Description An account of the resource Examined first by District Attorney Tarver, Belle Davis said she did not know how old she was, that she lived “up on the hill” at Hurley and had lived there a “month or two.” The idea of time was lacking with Belle, who said she did not know how many months there were in a year, or their names, or how many days there were in a week or what the days were called. She said “John Hen” Davis and Luke Davis were her brothers, and that Luke was the father of her two children and also the father of May’s baby. Cross-examined by Francis C. Merrit, she said that Luke was not the father of May’s baby but the father was a man named Hasbrouk, and that Luke was not the father of May; that she had used Luke’s name because she did not want to make the name of the father public. The father of May, she said, was a married man who lived in Kingston, and the father of May’s baby was also a married man. Doctor Walter N. Thayer, superintendent of state institution for defective delinquents at Napanoch, said he had examined both children on March 17, the examination consisting of two parts, one of which had been conducted by the psychologist from the Middletown Hospital, which was to determine the mental level of the children, and the other part of the examination conducted by himself which was for the purpose taking in the physical, personal, and social conditions and determining the ability of the children to function in civil life. Based on these examinations, he had formed the opinion that both children were of the imbecile type or grade. May having a mentality equivalent to a child of five years and six months and Elizabeth having a mentality equivalent to a child of four years. Neither was sufficiently intelligent to look after their own welfare or that of members of their family. On cross-examination, Dr. Thayer did not consider that the average colored individual should show the same mental level as the Caucasian, be he considered these children considerably lower than the average colored children of their age. They had no moral sense: they were unmoral rather than immoral. They might be taught to perform the simple forms of manual labor which did not require many mental operations, but they had a one-track mind. They might be taught to perform simple household tasks but would require constant supervision and could never take responsibility. Elizabeth, after some years of training, might become a household servant. Dr. Mary Gage-Day testified to having made an examination of both children and she called the children “mentally stupid.” From observations she did not know whether May could perform the physical act which she said she performed, the only physical act she had asked her to perform was to walk, and her walking had been normal. Dr. Henry Van Hovenberg also testified that he had examined May along the lines of physical conditions but he could not recall any specific question he had asked her. Dr. Day had asked most of the questions. Asked whether May had answered the questions correctly, Dr. Van Hovenberg said that they had been answered principally by “yes” or “no”: the questions had been such as to be answered properly in that way but some could have been answered in another way. He did not know anything of the previous history of these children but he knew Eagle’s Nest because he had had the pleasure of practicing there. Judge Fowler said that from observation and from the testimony he was satisfied that the children were mental defectives. The matter, however, will be held in abeyance until it can be learned to what institution they can be committed, and whether any institution will accept May and her baby which was born last December.

Title A name given to the resource Examine Davises as to Mentality Subject The topic of the resource Application for the commitment of May Davis and Elizabeth Davis. Description An account of the resource Examine Davises as to Mentality State Hospital Expert Finds Hurley Adult and Child Defective— Commitment Proceedings Halted Until April 22 Application for the commitment of May Davis and Elizabeth Davis, alleged mental defectives, to a state institution, came before Judge Joseph M. Fowler at county court chambers. The application was made by Miss Martha Davis, county agent of the State Charities Association for dependent children, after a number of residences of the town of Hurley had signed a petition asking her to take such action. The Davises live in the vicinity of Eagle’s Nest, on Old Hurley Mountain and are children of Belle Davis, who lives with her step brother, John Henry Davis. They are negroes. May is 24 years old and Elizabeth is 9 years old. According to tests by which mental ages of individuals are determined, both May and Elizabeth are said to show a mental age of four or five years. The examination of the Davises was made at the mental clinic held in this city held on St. Patrick’s Day by one of the examiners connected with the Middletown State Hospital and took place in the presence of Dr. Mary Gage-Day and Dr. Henry Van Hoevenberg. As it was desired to have the Middletown Hospital examiner present as a witness before Judge Fowler and also have the attendance of other members of the Davis family, the proceeding was adjourned to April 22. District Attorney Traver appeared for the petitioner; Francis C. Merritt appeared for the father of the two girls.

Title A name given to the resource That Strange Elopement Subject The topic of the resource That Strange Elopement Description An account of the resource In November of 1880, newspapers from Kingston NY to Seattle Washington and beyond ran a sensationalized story about a young White heiress who eloped with a Black farmhand who was working on her uncle’s farm in Gardiner, NY, under the memorable title “A New Use for Burnt Cork.” A week after this story broke, The Sun, one of New York City’s penny papers that specialized in crime and scandal, sent a reporter up to Lapala in Lamontville to track down the couple. Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource The Sun Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource November 14, 1880 Abstract A summary of the resource. THAT STRANGE ELOPEMENT. Did Carrie Deyo Blacken Her Face to Marry a Colored Man? The Miserable Hovel to which her Husband Took her from a Home of Comfort-Impressions that she Married for Revenge. The sensation and excitement that the elopement and marriage Miss Carrie Doyo caused have by no means subsided either In Gardner where she lived or In Marbleton, where she now lives or In Kingston where she and her negro husband did some shopping on Monday last. The story was told in The Sun of Wednesday last, and it was then intimated that legal complications might arise. But there seems to be more serious trouble in store for this couple even than legal proceedings. On no less authority than one of the counsel it is I asserted that Miss Deyo’s (now Mrs. Sampson) brother has laid that he will shoot both her husband and herself on sight. It seems that when Miss Deyo was wandering about for miles and miles on foot with the man she meant to marry and seeking for somebody to pronounce the ceremony, she met an aged colored woman. This woman was, as it happened, a relative of the prospective husband. “Miss,” said the old woman, “don’t you go an’ do it. Listen to Wesley’s old aunty. There’s a heap of trouble for married folk always anyway but if you does this there’ll be nothing but trouble for you all your days.” But the girl was set on the marriage, much more than the man. They tramped for mile and miles rebuffed by this clergyman and that, expelled from the office of a Justice of the Peace and finally accomplishing their purpose at the house of an aged clergyman who had no sort of idea at the time of ceremony that he was marrying a white woman of good social standing to one of the Lapello negroes. There Is still some mystery about it all. The girl insists and did to the writer, that she married the man of her choice and that she will stick to him; but It is evident that there are some reasons connected with the man, which induced her to do as she has done. When seen yesterday in the midst of the most appallingly abject surroundings, she seemed not only contented but also unwilling to listen to any suggestions of quitting the place. She was brought up In a roomy farmhouse In New Paltz. Her adopted father who is also her uncle by marriage stands as well as any one in the community. He Is rich – at least rich in comparison with his neighbors. She was educated. even better than her mates. She had to all appearances, a pleasant home and this is the picture her present place of abode as seen yesterday by the writer. Away back ten miles from Kingston on the mountain Is a little settlement - a cluster of hovels and log cabins. The place would be lonesome in summer In the chilliness of fall it while most dismal and dreary. Negroes occupy these hovels except that one house better than all the rest is the home of the superintendent of a stone quarry. The cleared spaces are stony. Nothing but plantain and weeds, and here and there a cabbage appear to thrive on the soil. The nearest church is miles away and a low stone shanty Is used for a schoolhouse and occasional negro preaching of a Sunday. Absolute chilly Isolation is entailed on everyone who dwells there excepting the sorry Intercourse they have with each other. One of these hovels Is built on the side of stony ledge. That made a basement possible for a story and a half superstructure, and It Is for this damp dark basement that this girl has gone for a home. One window lets in not only light but air, for the glass Is nearly ail gone. But if it was dreary outside the most dismal prison could not be more gloomy than the single room. There was a cook stove with a pot on, but no fire in it. There were two chairs and a rude table; there were one or two pots, a tin plate and cup, and in one corner a bed on the floor. Some old shoes and boots, muddy, and moldy, a block for kindling wood splitting, were all the other furniture of this place. The floor was of stone, the walls were of stone, and it was to such a place that a girl who had been brought up in one of the neatest, coziest places who had a piano and books and newspapers had come to live. The basement was entirely deserted: but a colored boy, who stood with great staring eyes as the writer looked, said that Mr. Sampson had gone to a funeral with his wife. The funeral was that of a colored baby and the screams and wails of the negroes were heard a long way from the schoolhouse. The services were over just as I approached. Sampson the husband, came out when I asked for him. He Is a small man and seems to be less than 20 years old. His complexion is copper-colored, and he seems to be a good-natured, easy-going fellow. His lips are thick, and his nose as pronounced as that of a full-blooded African. “Have you any intimation of legal proceedings?” the writer asked. Instantly all the colored people ceased their mourning, even leaving the white sexton to attend to the little coffin alone and crowded around me. Some of those men would not be pleasant people to meet If they were ugly and It might have fared hard with me If I proved to be what they suspected I was - an officer come to arrest Sampson. “What can they do?” Sampson answered. “I married her. They can’t arrest me for that. I have never done any wrong. She was willing, and so was I. They can’t separate us in that way. If they want me, they needn’t send an officer here; I’ll go right to Kingston and give myself up.” Just then there came from the schoolhouse a lot of negro women, and with them one white girl. She was trying to soothe a negro child that was crying, and she paced up and down the plot hushing the child by singing to it and swaying it in her arms. Suddenly her eye fell on me and the expression that came over her face seemed fierce almost. She too suspected that I was an officer. Shut put the baby into the arm of an old negress, and lost no time In taking her place by her husband’s side, and did so with a defiant look. She was clad in a dark dress, over which was drawn a blue knitted shawl, neatly pinned at the throat and she had a decidedly jaunty-looklng hat on her head. She Is larger than the man she Is married to, and is well formed. Her face is rather pleasant, eyes reddish-brown and large, the forehead low, and the features regular. She seamed to have an abundance of dark-brown hair, loosely gathered together at the back of the head. “What’s the matter?” she said quickly. “Go away, Carrie,” Sampson saId hastily, the man is all right.” “If you come from John Deyo (her adopted father) you have come on a useless errand.” She continued. “Is It true that you blackened your face with burnt cork before you could get a minister to marry you?” “What difference does It make?” If I did It I did It knowing what I was doing. If I smeared my face with green, that don’t break a marriage does it?” “But It is said there was fraud perpetrated?” “Who say so?” That is one of John Deyo’s lies. How could there be any fraud? I did it of my own free will and I am content. They can’t take me away. They can’t break this marriage, I have my certificate, and I sent a copy of it to John Deyo. He’ll see that I am married.” “How long have you been married?” “Five weeks, and I am not sorry a bit. John Deyo has been telling lies about me. He has been trying to frighten my husband and me. He wants to get me away from my husband and to send me to Cincinnati to boarding school. But he can’t do it. I am just as well capable of taking care of myself as he Is. I know precisely what I am about, and even if I am only 19, still, I as I got married he can’t break It. That was why I got my certificate all in good order and I got it framed.” “It is said that you charged your adopted father with ill treatment.” “It’s true.” My Iawyer Mr. Brlnnler knows It. But he can never put me out of doors again nor abuse me as he has done. I’ve got some one lo protect me now.” When asked for the particulars of the elopement and the attempt tp get a clergyman to marry her, she said with decided vim that was nobody’s business but her own, but she denied having put burnt cork on her face to deceive the clergy man. Sampson had stood, listening attentively while his wife was speaking. He would look at her closely and when she finished would turn and eye the reporter to see what effect her remarks had. “I mean to support my wife.” He said at length as well as I can and just as soon as I can better our circumstances without getting into debt, I shall do so.” Then she took him by the arm and led him away, and I saw them going up the stony road arm in arm, she seemingly in earnest conversation, her blue shawl the only bit of brightness in the dreary landscape. The picture seems to affect the white superintendent of the quarry, for he touched my arm and, pointing to them, said: “that’s the saddest sight I ever saw in all my life. It’s an outrageous shame, and my wife feels like crying every time she sets eyes on that poor unfortunate creature.” “But she seems fully to realize all that is before her.” “Yes, she does sir, and that’s what makes it harder to understand.” It was with plain from the conversation that the surmises of her lawyer, Mr. W.D. Brinnier, are correct. He says that she has deliberately married this negro to spite her adopted father. What happened in the Deyo house no one outside knows, but something happened which caused this girl to do this thing in the hope of tormenting and disgracing the family. Mr. Deyo will not speak of the matter. “I never want to hear her name again.” He said. “I have utterly renounced and cast her off, and she must abide by the consequences.” Thus, Carrie Deyo cast away a prospective inheritance of something like $50,000 to marry a negro. Papers were served upon Mr. Deyo demanding $15 in cash, a feather be, and one or two trinkets that the girl claimed as hers. He delivered up the articles, excepting that the feather bed sent was not live feathers. The girl instructed her lawyer to replevin the live feather bed or to sue for the amount. Mr. Vannetten, Mr. Deyo’s lawyer says that Mr. Deyo is disposed to let matters stand just where they do now, unless Sampson and the girl are troublesome. If they force themselves upon his notice he shall take certain measures. Mr. Vannetten did not say precisely what those measures would be, but he intimated that a way might be found to annul the marriage. The girl, being underage, left the house in the night time and joined this negro. Then, as alleged, she blackened her face and deceived the clergyman who married them. These facts, with others that Mr. Vannetten does not care to make public now, he believes would make a case by which her adopted father and guardian could secure an annulment of the marriage. The girl, however, told her lawyer, that even if they broke the marriage because she was underage, yet she would wait until she was of age and then marry Sampson. The Rev. Dr. Huriburt, the aged clergyman who married them, is greatly grieved. He would never have married them had he supposed they were not of the same race. He will not say that the girl’s face was blackened. They came to his house and asked to be married. He asked the usual questions, and supposed he was marrying two colored people. It seems almost impossible for the clergyman to have been mistaken, unless her face was stained at least, for, though her complexion is rather dark, no one could ever even at a distance suppose her to be a mulatto.
