HE CAREER of tenie c. claflin,
' NOW LADY COOK.
4 njorican Country Girl Who Has

Suffraeis*i Lecturer, Exponent of

~ 1? e s and Estates of an English
Viscount.
From the Xetc York World.
Saturday, a week ago, there stepped from
th e gang-plank of the North German steam
-v;. ,°Ems a woman whose costume bore the
unmistakable impress of foreign houses and
whose striking, nervously lined face easily
betrayed a personality above the average
r , her sex . Stepping into a carriage uud
rawing her wraps about her she ordered
her driver to take her post haste across the
nver to Brooklyn. The coachman’s fare
wss n one other than Lady Francis Cook,
Viscountess of Monsterrat, or stripped of
tnc glamor of her titles, none other than
the one famous Tennie C. Claflin. The
next day’s newspapers hardly made any an
nouncement of her arrival, and yet a dozen
avs or so ago, at her departure for Eng
s’ ,} { r om Am rica, and, f r many more
tha ; a dozen years before, her goings out
and her comings in, were one of the staple
topics of the paragraphers, while Tennis C.
Claflin was a name oftenest. upon men’s
ops Since that time she has lived more or
less quietly in and about Loudon, and
though there is no one who has not beard
0 f ter ad her adventurous career, many of
the facts which have made it such a notable
or e even in America, where a life has to
be marked far out of the common run indeed
to b regarded as interesting, have slipped
from most people’s memory.
When, in 1875, Miss Claflin and her sis
ter. Victoria Woodhull, emigrated to Eng
land they left the country somewhat like
social Pariahs, whom their countrywomen
regarded as having forfeited the respect of
their sex on account of the startling
doctr nes which they had promulgated and
put in practice while poor as the traditional
church mouse. Their career had more than
the usual ups aud downs, but the family
fortune was never at a lower ebb than at
the moment of their embarkation. Almost
the entire rank and tile of the Woodbull-
Claflin combinat on quitted these inhospit
able shores at the same time, ad
the departure took something of the
nature of a conquered clan. In the party
were the aged father and mother of the
sisters, the former of whom died in England
some three years ago; the mother was a
week ago lying dangerously ill in Brooklyn,
and it was in response to her summons that
her daughter saite 1 for New York, <• But
what a change in the fortunes of the two
women the twelve years have brought
about. In her wildest imagination Miss
Claflin never could have dreamed that she
w, old one day be the wife of a Croesus and
h baronet ‘ under one hat,” and tnat her
older sister would lie equally as well mar
ried and as rich. It certainly is nothing
unprecedented for an American girl to set
out on a fishing excursion and hook a title,
but in the case of Victoria Woodhull aud
Tennie C. Claflin it is a finis to what seems
almost a fair\ r tale, and the history of their
strange, eventful lives is so remarkable as
to seem now. in view- of their good fortune,
almost incredible.
In recounting their history it is impossi
ble to separate their twin-like experiences,
for they nave stuck to each other through
thick and thin alike. They are natives of
Ouio—Victoria was born in Homer, 0., in
September, 1 She, and Tennie a few year
later—where their parents were poor, and
the girls hut two of a goodly sized family
of children. Their early education was
most meager, and they "began life with
nothing but pretty faces and wonderfully
acute intelligence. Their early years were
but one long record f vicissitudes, during
which Victoria had by turns tried her hand
at mediutuizing, hand-sewing and acting,
while Tennie followed closely at her heels.
The rnediumizing proved to be the most
lucrative, however, for just as the two
girls were blossoming inti womanhood the
Rochester craze was beginning to victimize
a very gullible public, and in one year in
Coiumbus Mrs. Wood hull’s earnings were
said be her friends to have been" nearly
{IIIO,OOO.
When she arrived in Ne w York, at the
house numbered 17 Great Jones street, she
v-fts a very rich womaan. Long before this,
however—in fact, when she was only 14
years of age—she was married to Dr. Can
ning Wo dhull, her senior by many years,
who according to her own account, led her
a terrible dance, and who spent most of his
tme in his cups. Two children were born
of the marriage, a boy who has been always
an invalid and, in 1861, a daughter who
now lives witn her m .tber in London. The
journey to this citv was taken at the advice
oi Demosthenes, Mrs. Woodhull’s spiritual
►age and surely, as affairs have turned out,
he justified his immemorial reputation for
sagacity—where, as he said, the party
*Oiil(i find tbe house iu Great Joues
re - furnished and prepared for the
party. She accepted his advice ar.il
tie first object she laid her
hands on was the “Orations" of her
spirit adviser. More earthly advisers had
counseled her to separate from her worth

afterward sent in to the judiciary commit
tee ( f the House of Representatives. Back
of her, always egging her on, was the
staunch-hearted Tennie, and immediately
Mrs. Woodhull followed up the submittai of
her plaint by a public disputation
in Washington. Champions gathered
quickly about the controveisialists,
the name and the social creed of
the Claflins be ;an to command universal at
tention, and in 1870 Victoria announced her
intention to run for the Preside c>. lenuie
was constituency, lieutenant, disbursor of
funds and general henchman to the nominee,
ami shortly afterward the party of equal
rights offered support to the Woodhull
candidacy in the campaign of 1872. Next
we find the indefatigable duo immersed to
their elbows in Spiritualism, Victoria
lecturing over all the country, while Ten
nie is fulminating pamphlets and dissemi
nating the doctrine of the emancipationists,
til! suddenly the country was startled by
the first i timations of the most star.ling
scandal that it has ever known.
STARTING THE BEECHER SCANDAL.
It is not necessary to enter into the pain
ful story of the Beecher-Tiltpn case. The
circumstances attending the first disclosure
of the accusation against Mr. Beec >er were
of the most dramatic nature, aud electrified
the United States from one end of it to
another. Mrs. Woodhull had taken train
for B< stou for the purpose of declining a
nomination to the presidency of the National
Association of Spiritualists, an office to
which she had been elected in 1871. She
attended a meeting of the society with this
end in view, when a strange thing hap
pened. She was seized, it seems, with a
sudden inspiration, aud iu a frantic out
burst she poured forth detail after Retail
of the Bee her-Tilton affair. Her audience
was held, fixed as in a trance, and
when the nat re of her polemic was wired
around the laud attention centered itself on
the name of Victoria Woodhull, and re
ruained fixed there for long months after.
Before this, suspicions of a similar kind had
been hinted at in various journals, which
were supposed to originate from the
Claflins, but in the autumn of 1872 in their
own orgau appeared a sweeping denuncia
tion of Brooklyn’s great divine. But im
mediately upon the appearance of the
sheet the whole edition was seized and con
fiscated, aid the publishers were arrested
and placed in the Tombs; but their work
had been effectively done, for a previous
issue had been sent through the mails and
the story spread.
The Claflins had been personal friends
of the Be.cber family as well as with
Tneodore Tilton, and they had admirers iu
such men as Gan. Benjamin F. Butler, who
had been won over to her side when “The
Memorial of Victoria 'Woodhull” had been
submitted to the judiciary committee in
Washington; Stepuen Bearl Audrews,
Horace Greeley atone time, a id many an
other substantial citizen, whom they fasci
nated by their power and charm of earnest
ness, as well, of course, as all the eminent
blue-stockings of the land. During the
progress of the long, unfortunate trial
which followed the action of Theodore
Tilton, party feeling was very intense, and
among those who came in for a big shaie of
the bitter scorn of Mr. Beecuer’s supporters
were the sisters Claflin.
In 1876, aud just when the feeling against
them was the fiercest, they emigrated to
England, where they have since lived The
name of Woodhull got changed somehow to
Woodhali,and the now famous journal pur
sued new fortunes in the quee i’s dominions
under the name of Woodhall and Claflin's
Journal. Subsequently through their
j urnal the editors denial the charges that
they desired “free love,” denounced many
of their old associates on this side the water,
whom they charged in turn with the inten
tion, of injuring their reputations, and,
finally, as far as the public was concerned,
oecame practically forgotten.
HER AMBITION ATTAINED.
And here come the most interesting par*
of their story. Mrs. W r oo hull —or TV. ,od
hall now—used to declare that a prophecy
had been whispered to her from the spirit
world that she would win distinction in
public life; would come into possession
eventually of great wealth; would gain suc
cess from writing and would at last become
a ruler of a jieople. Two of these predic
tions were fairly verified in her own coun
try; it remained for her to come into great
wealth iu England; while the lavt is as yet in
posse, though Mrs. Woodhull bel.evts in its
r ealization still—or did at least not many
years ago—though in a figurative ruther
than a literal sense. As to riches, Mrs.
Woodhull has secured plenty of them, and
has now the ample wherewithal to perfect
her many schemes for the amelioration and
enfranchisement of her sox—a fulfillment
of prediction, by the way, that generously
included her sister Tennie in its scope a>
well.
In 1885 there was a quiet wedding cere
mony iu London, of which the contracting
parties were Victoria Woodhull and John
Biddulpli Martin, the junior member of the
Lombard street banking house of Martin &
Cos., one of the oldest, richest aud solidesl
t a iking houses in the kingdom. The home
of Mr. Martin is a handsome structure near
Hyde Park, simply yet splendidly appointed,
with generous grounds for a town residence,
including a lawn, a garden, a rare conserva
tory and adjoining carriage bouse and
stables. All this, with his i ame and riches,
he offered to the attractive woman who
won him the first time he saw and
heard her on the lecture platform
at St. James’ ball, Piccadilly, and
it is over his household, which includes
several members of the Clatiin family,
that Victoria Woodtiull presides as mistress.
Her invalid son has his special serva t, as
theoaugiter hasher’s, while the servants'
quarters hold a vast retinue of servants
from the Preach chef, dow . through Preach
maids, chambermaids aud housemaids, but
lers a id footmen, to the various scullery
maids, who care for the vastestablisament.
The reception rooms, says one who called
there and was shown the house, are very
large; the hall is tessellated arid .mug with
drape lies of great beauty, and the various
other apartments—billiard-room, dining
and breakfast-rooms, boudoirs and bed
rooms— are all fit nished in th* quiet, lux
urious stylo becoming the house of one of
England’s richest backers.
But Miss Tennie not only married an im
mensely rtoh man but a title as well. To be
sure, the title Isa little fresh aud the family
ci esc smells yet. of varnish, but it giver her
a chance to parade a shield upon her paper
and the panels of her carriages. Not very
long after Victoria’s marriage, Kir Francos
Cook, the w olesale dealer iu India shawls
and eastern fabrics, took her younger sister
to the altar and made her Lady Cook and
Viscountess of Montserrat, as well. Sir
F; anci< is considerably older than his bride
aud a widower besi le. with two sons on hi*
hands by his former marriage with a Span
iard, who are in business with them, and a
married daughter. Sir Francis got his
knighthood on account of his benefactions,
which have been very considerable during
the pa.t ten years. He is generous with bis
money at borne a< well, and Lady Cook,
who once upon a time found it hard work
to eke out her hoard and lodgings bill, now
can play the Lady Bountiful on a grand
scale.
