MerdceiV WaBh., Dec. '23. Where
!s H. Clark, lugger.
Tint- U the a u oh t Ion that a girl
wtfu, homeless, friendless and pennl
'esh, repeals to herself each hour of
the day In her bed at a local hospi
tal, while the form of a child, born
Sunday morning to die yesterduy, lies
awaixlnx hor. recovery to be burled.
. ftomeiblng over a year axo, the
tsirl says, she .married Clark In Ore
eon and came to Aberdeen about a
month rko. Hore tho husband ar
ranged for her maintenance for a few
weeks, .and, promising to return by
the end of that time, went Into the
woods to work, so she believed.
The weeks sped by, and the pirl
barely 20 years old, grew moro anx-:
ions, and worried. At last the day
tame when the advance rent had I
been exhausted and the landlady aHk-
ed for money. There was no one to
whom the unfortunate girl could ap
peal. She rt'aiH an orphnn and there
was no home to which she could turn
In Oregon and being here but a short
- nrt no Mends In Aberdeen
Forced out on the street' she sought
another hotel and with faith In her
husband- still firm and unshaken,
she secured a room In another lodg-
ing notice upon telling the propri
etress, whose heart warmed toward!
tho girl, that the bill would be settled
wbn Clark returned. '
Then ugaln commenced the dnys of
vaiting. The little woman, exnectlne
it anv time to become a mother, put
nit hour by hour, going to a hosnltal,
firm In tho belief that Clark would
r.ome back as he promised. Christ
mas came nnd passed, but stlU she
ielayed until at last at 4 o'clock Sun
day morning sho packed her ucanty
belongings and applied at the Aber
deen general hospital for admittance.
t 10 o'clock her child was born.
Her first words afterwards were to
isk for her husband. Perhaps it was
"he worry and care of tho p-eeeritng
-lays of the privations she underwent,
but In any event the tiny ,babe clung
n its weeping mother but q day when
death called it.
Mrs. Clark still believes In hor hus
band. She Insists that i?otne harm ,
must have come to him to keep him
away. Efforts to locate her hucband
have failed.
