HE A DESERTER The Hopeless Plight of Poor Little Mrs. Clau- sen Peacock—Aban- doned by Friends. HUSBAND IN A _ CELL. How Peacock Was Betrayed After Going to the Philip- pines on Transport Unrec- ognized by Comrades. Poor Mamie Clausen Peacock, a pretty Uttle shop girl in Brooklyn, who has tasted the bliss of married Ife for but two weeks, is suffering the pangs that only a wife deprived of her husband and breadwinner can understand and appreciate. Even sympathy is denied her, for her relatives and friends have all turned from her in her hour of des- Pair Decause of the crime her husband is accused of. Mamte 1s just elghteen, and before her wedding had been employed as a stock girl in a large Brooklyn department store, She lived with her aunt, Mi Henry Sievers, at No. 9 Atlantic av nue, as she had no other living rela- tive who took any interest in her, For the past four years, however, there had been one slight ray of ha Piness In her life of toll and sorrow. This was the love of a youth named Willlam Peacock. He was nineteen and Impulsive. For years he had been a driver for a butcher shop at No. 73 Court street, but one day about a year ago he decided to Join the regular army. He therefore enlisted in the Eleventh Cavalry, at that time quar- tered in Fort Myer, Va. His Denertion. Unfortunately for him, his father fell il about this time and he asked fora furlough in order that he might return home and see him before he died. As he had only been enlisted three days, this was refused him. Accordingly he did what he may have occasion to regret all the rest of his days. He deserted. On his return home he found that dis father had died, The Knowledge ap- peared to break his spirit, and he tried to rejoin his comrades at Fort Myer. He heard that the regiment was wolng to the Philippines in a few days and he therefore sought the transport which Was to carry them and engaged as a cook on board of her. His own mess- mates, bo nerer, did not recognize him, so mich fad he been changed by sor- row, Yor a while he remained a cook on the i transport Crooke, but after a time, on landing in New York, he left his post- Hon and returned tothe butoher shop. in_ Brooklyn, ‘Then matters began to assume a rose- ate hue for him and his, little eweet- heart, Every one had apparently for- Batien that he was a deserter, i after, resuming his courtship’ with Mamie, they quietly slipped away from all observing eyes and went to Bt. Charles's Roman Catholle Church, ai No. 21 Sidney place, where they were Rev.

Angered that such a false accusation shou.d be made againet him, he. pro- ceeded to the station house and asked the sergeant whether there really was such a warrant for his grest. The ser- Zeant looked over ‘his memoranda and could not find any «such charge. He was about ts say so when he discovered a lector on the desk calling for the ar- rest of Willlam Peacock on the charge of deserting. from the regular army. Grestioned by the officer about the truth of the charge, Peacock admitted everything, and was detained at the tion house until yesterday morning, he was taken down the harbor t3 Governer's Island to awaft his trial by cour martial, Mearwhile his lttle bride ta, almost wild with fear for his Iife, She has sought to obtain employment at the old store, but they will not take her back, because of a rule that no married wom: en shall be given positions.
