Cure fur the Carpso In lV. , Iviuil hiestilig The body of Edgar L. Brown , who died sodilenly a few days ago at the residence of his mother , bO7 South , Iighith street , has ttccn twice hitrbe ] , and now , although rest- lug bencaihi the so.I in the family burying ground itt Fairview cemetery , is technically In the hianda of the sheriff of Pottawattanhhe county , with a strong legal light for its possession In prospect. Until yesterdoy afternoon It was not known that there as any ilispUto over the body , neither did any moicinbers of the family know that there was even a remote nros- poet of the reSt of the sleeper being ills- turlwd. The first intimation vi'is giveli to Dr. George C. Brown , the brother , yester- thay afternoon , when lie informed that the sexton at Falrview , with two ether men , were engaged in digging up. the body. Ir. Browio called a carrhagc and immediately diove to the cemetery. The work was well hit ( icr Wfl when he arrived. Inquiry as to the nature of tim proceidlngs elIcited the fact that the body was being removed by the orders of the widow of the dead man , Mrs. Mary Brown. Site present with a man named Fulton , who was posing as her legal adviser. Dr. Brown was Infome that itas the Intention to take up the casket no.1 rebury It on the hot owned by the widow. Dr. Brown renoonstratod in rain , and after forbidding thh further desecration of the grave , threatened to have all of them artestoci. In response he was shown an order from Mayor Carson , granting permission for the removal. lIe acted promptly by rcturnJng to town and getting au attorney to sue out a writ of Teplevhn in Justice Cook's court , fly the time It was served the noon had abcut finished their work , and were covering up the nev grave. The repberin writ was enforced and the casket was again taken up and replaced in the original grave , and at sundown last evening there was one on- filled grave and another newly and neatly rounded tip. The fact that Edgar L. Brown was mar- ricO Is only recalled by the older citizens. In 1877 Mr. Brown was acquainted with Mary Sapp , who was then a young girl. In the course of time Mary found herself to be a mother without a father for her child. Some time before the event Edgar left honoc anti did not return until 1882 , anti then Miss Sapp accused him of being the father of the child , which had died In the meantime. Under proteste of his innocence Edgar mar- non bier , and remained away nearly all of the time until ho woe brought home from Texas to die. During all of the years the woman has remained hem the city , hiving quietly as Mrs. 11. L. Brown , opporting herself at dressmaking. At the funeral she created something of a sensation. She notified - tified Dr. Brown that she was going to attend - tend the funeral of her husband , and to the untiertaker she confitbed time information that she had hired a special carriage and intended to drive to the cemetery next to the hearse and ahead of the. family. She eald if this was permitted she would be satisfied. Permission war granted , and she appeared at tim residence in a choved car- nags. After the services were over at the house she desired to comi'o in and see the body. It was deemed best to grant this request - quest also. She was closely veiled , and when she reached the casket she threw up her veil , knelt by the side of the comn , kissed the deati face tenderly and rept silently for a few moments. But few of the members of time. family were aware of her presence in the house. 'When she arose she dropped hoer veil and waliceti to her carriage and drove to the cemetery at. the head of the procession. At the grave ehe gave sonic additional - ditional demonstrations of her grief ; but was induced to withdraw before attracting gen- cral attention. The whole proceelings seemed to be a part of bier plan to either annoy time family or assert her right as the widow of the deati man , and were all preparatory to her proceedings yesterday. During the years the family have been given but little evidence Ut the fact that she was in the city , and sIte was imot recognized by them as the wife of Edgar. A few days ago she purchased a lot In the cemetery not far from .tho Brown family burying grounds , and yesterday sIte notified the sexton that she desired the body of her child and that of her husband removed anti buried In the new lot. The sexton informed - formed lien that she would have to secure the necessary permit. She applied to the city clerk in time uBual way , and was no- ( erred by him to the mayor as ex-omcto tread of the Board of health. She cailed upon the mayor and stated her business. Mayor Carson was somewhat acquainted with her , and not reaJzing , tliat she was making a request that was liable to make trouble granted it. bier action has created a great deal of unpleasant feeling among the members of her husband's family and their friends , and they have resorted to tim courts to prevent any further interference with the body. Last night at 10 o'clock they secured an Injunction from Judge Smith , restraining the wormian from in any way molesting the grave or removing anything from the Brown family lot. The only relatIve the woman has In the city is Mrs. Forrest Kinney , who is her sister , bIer father was murdered iii a saloon Iii the southern part of the city many years ago. _ _ _ _ _ WOBI.VOItlC iii' A.

The break was repaIred and Edwards was advised by attomioeys not to reppat the experiment , as it would head to seriotis cor.sequeimces to himself. TIme squatter's organization - ganization then hit upon the plan of making their women dO the work under the impression - sion that the court's injunction diti not apply - ply to them.
