— A parries Her Husband’, Father and Finds the Son Alive. goter-Ucean Un the breaking out of the war 1 young man. of James Cosgrove, enlisted in the Confeder 25 Yeats and left his young wife, to ate army : whom he had been married but a tew months, with his parencs in this city. No tidings were ever heard of young AB Cosgrove, and his wife, after dili- | 3 gent inquiry, ascertained he was ina . Virginia regiment, and had been ( promoted to a lieutenancy. All et- forts to communicate with him were eM gnavailing, and at last information @ was reeeived that Cosgrove’s regi- ment had been engaged in a_ fierce ‘E battle at Culpcpper Court House, and Cosgrove was one of the killed. ‘The latter news was brought the wite byacomrade who had been taken prisoner by the Federa! soldiers, who by means of powerful influence was enavled to purchase his freedom and WAE WIDOW. | | ; wite, and Mrs. Cosgroye No. 2 gwe up fighting. Mrs. Cosgrove has been doubtful of her husband’s death and for months and years anx- jously looked tora letter from him. iB As time wore on she grew despond- ent, and after the close of the war, | vpon, finding her husband did not MT returnor write to her, she came to the conclusion that he was either dead or had deserted her. Mrs. Cosgrove’s tather was a prominent ship builder in Delaware, and after his death in 1866, the entire estate, valued at $15,000 er $20,000, was left to his only daughter, Mrs. Cos- grove. Every dollar of this money was spent in searching tor the absent husbond. After the money was all gone, Mrs. Cosgrove returned to her former home and mourned for her husband as dead. A tew years later she married Captain Edward God- frey, a wealthy sea captain. who on- lysurvived his wedding a few months. The young widow was_ then only 28 years of age, and. being possessed of means and very attractive in appear- ze, she had many suitors. To peatly all she appeared cold and in- ifferent, and great was the surprise Y manifested in 1878, when she mar- ned James D. Cosgrove, sr., the father of her first husband. Al- though the latter was rather adyanc- edin years, being then 56 years old, the newly married couple .appeared happy and contented. The husband sold his little humble Dallis street a few months ago, and by the aid of a part of his young wife’s money purchased a handsome dwelling on Washington street, near Fremont. The strange part of _ this story remains to be told. When the deed tor the new purchase was about being passed to the Cosgrove tamily, itwas learned that the signature of the daughter of the former owner, a married lady residing im Richmond, Va., was necessary tor a pertect title Arrangements were made to have all the parties interested in the prop- erty to meet at ‘Squire McCaffray’s | Office on Wednesday last, week “| #g0.
