Some years ago a young man com mitted a crime in Indiana and fled to Kentucky, where he married. Three weeks after his wife became a mother, fie was arrested on a warrant from Indiana, and, in the custody of three men, taken on board a steamer to be conveyed back to Indiana. His wife, with her infant child, after a hasty ride of twelve miles, reached the same steamer and secured a passage. The remainder of the narrative we give in the words of a writer in the Bow ling Green (Ky.) Democrat : The prisoner was sitting near the stove in the forward cabin encircled by his guard. I saw, slight though it was, the thrill or start as the wife's eye first fell upon him and his suiToundii gs. Her salutation was constrainedly quiet and unde monstrative. With but a slight pause, she rather peremptorily said "Come!" as she started toward the ladies' cabin. The guard rather hesitatingly objected, but she re plied in a compressed tone, "He shall come !" He arose, and the guard accompanying, all walked aft and sat down in the ladies' cabin. With a sort of a fascination I fol lowed. Here there was but little conversation for some time, beyond mutual inquiries in regard to health, and some expressed apprehensions on the part of the husband of injury to both mother and child from expo sure to such weather so soon after her accession to maternity. The steamer had progressed many miles by bed-time, and meanwhile a stateroom had been assigned the woman, in which, after being well warmed and snugly enwrapped, the little babe was sweetly sleeping, and, as mothers fondly fancy, smiling in response to angels' whispers at any rate, happily unconscious of its pa rents' troubles. About 10 o'clock Mrs. said, "John, it is bed time; I know you need sleep. Come into my room and goto bed." The guard thereupon arose and pos itively objected; but she turned upon the with a withering glance and a desperate resolution in her face, saying: "You need not open your mouths. You are three great, brave men to fear a little unarmed man like him 1 Guard the outside of the door as you will, but in here he shall sleep 1" Her taunt prevailed. The guard yielded, and the prisoner retired with his wife. I was astonished at her success, and wondered at the imbecility of the guard ; but at sev eral successive landings, while the lady was still up, they would de mand admittance to her room, look in upon the prisoner, and then re tire. The steamer was about arriving at Calhoun. When Hearing the lauding I noticed the boat in a most unusual position relative to the bank her head pointing obliquely across to the other shore, while her stern was scraping along the bank in the bushes on the landing side. I looked, but there was no wind to explain it. I could not understand it. After scraping her stern along the bank tor about a hundred yards, she at last righted, and came into the landing all right As usual on landing, the guard rushed up for ward to watch the exit of all, for getting that a boat baa two ends, and that it is possible to get off at either. Had they been cognizant of this fact this true story might have been materially altered. After leav ing the dock at this point, the guard as usual went to Mrs. 's room and demanded admittance. She, for the first time, refused to open the door, alleging, as a reason, that she had now undressed, and they could not come in. They appealed to the captain. He told them he was powerless. As the lady claimed, she had paid for her room ; it was sacred to privacy, and he thought they had lost control of the prison er when they consented to let him go into her room. The guards then declared their determination to see, and again demanded admit tance, threatening to break down her door. She then asked them to "wait a minute," and I supposed she would dress and submit to the search. A moment elapsed, when the little woman stepped quickly and firmly out, closing the door with a clash behind her, and with a cocked derringer in her hand. If her manner was as I have defcribed it when she first came on board the steamer, it was now a hundred-fold exaggerated ! A pythoneRs, a lion ess, an enraged tigress at bay pshaw! She can't be described afc she then appeared. Have yon not felt the spell the awful fascination of a great and terrible passion? Here it was her eyes fairly blaz ing, her hand trembling, not with weakness, but surcharged power; the glittering weapon raised, ex posing its murderous halt-inch cali bre ; its shining percussion cap and hammer drawn back in dreadful, threatening harmony with its mis tress. No witness of this scene will ever forget the scathing, burning words that then hissed from her lips as she said: "And you would break into a lady's bed-chamtor, would you ? Is there one of you who is tired of life and covets death ? Then let him come, for by all that is sacred, by my own honor, the man dies that puts his foot in this door." Then, derisively, she added : " Come do come. Where is the hero that would break a lady's door?" and with a "Ha! ha!" sounding halt maniacal, she stood awaiting the result. The guards shrank back from the power of pas sion and desperate determination she displayed. Nor were they cowards. It was apparent that this was no mere acting. Death to one was certain, and they did not wish to harm her. Again and again, for thirty miles, at several landings, they would go back and try persuasion, then threats, but were always met with that murder ons, cocked derringer and the sol emn declaration that "the man dies that enters my room !" At Delaware, after several vain applications, the heroic little wo man suddenly stepped out of hot room, dressed, quiet, and dignified, as if nothing unusual had happened, and, with well-affected courtesy, in vited the guards to enter. They did enter, and yon may imagine their consternation on finding that the bird had flown ! In the hubbub attending the discovery the Cap tain was called away, then about 3 o'clock a. m. He could give the guards no comfort but he placed the boat at their service for a thor ough and exhaustive search. The landing of the stern of the boat at Calhoun, instead of her bow, was now recollected and understood. It was all plain now, and the collu sion of the pilot and mate on watch was self-evident The Captain charged them with it They did not deny it He reprimanded them severely, though it was observed he did not discharge them for this certainly an act of mercy, though at the expense of justice. But to return to this brave, hero- . ic woman. The thrilling episode over, she lay there, weak, almost fainting, but glorified in the writer's estimation. A short time before, she had appeared like a threaten ing, destructive thunder-bolt, sur charged with power, and desperate, gentle as a lamb. Her object ac complished, her husband saved, her womanhood, in all its beautiful gen tleness and tenderness, returns, and in the reaction of the terrible excite ment of the ordeal through which she passed, she lay utterly exhaust ed almost dead. Her little infant was scarcely more helpless ; tut the heroism she had displayed, coupled with her delicate condition, elicited from all on board the most watch ful and tender care. She fully re covered in a few weeks, rejoined the husband her bravery had saved, and the writer bad the pleasure of meet ing them, happy in each other's af fection, on their way to , where they hoped the wrath of the old Nemesis of Indiana could not reach them. Whatever we may think of the husband's sin, all will join me in doing honor to this brave and de voted woman, The most likely thing to become a woman? Why, a little girl.
