ROMANCE IN LAWSUIT.
CHAtJFPER'S mm CLAIMS TO BE WEALTHY WOMAN'S ■DAUGHTER. 'More than one romance ls involved in a lawsuit which a woman named Anita McGnliiPe-s lg bringing against the estate of the late Mr. Henry Cammann, who was a wealthy member of American society. Mm. McGulnnesg claims a share of Mrs. Cammann's •wealth on very peculiar grounds. She is now a chauffeur's wife, and was always supposed to have been a fonrdling. Now she declares that she ls really Mrs. Cammann's daughter, and that she was born before -ber mother married Mr. Cammann. The bereaved husband has hurried back from the south, declaring that he will spend every farthing of bis fortune if necessary in contesting the -suit and clearing his wife's name. fldh Csmrnann's 'lawyers- believe that the plaintiff is suing under a misapprehension. It Is possible, they .ay, that the j late Mrs Cammann paid for ir-ie main-1 tenanee and education of the chauffeur's' wife as a child, but it was to protect the good name of a girl friend and because of genuine sympathy with the little waif, I whom she iliefrlen never dreaming that her charity, after death, might re-l coll upon herself.
