June 30, when the old Dominion line steam - .hip Wyandotte arrived in New York it was reported that • wealthy old gentleman, named Cicero Harrison ('ase, of Norfolk, Va., had been lost overboard. A woman who mid she was his widowed daughter - Mra Oliver -was with Case on the voyage, hat disappeared on the arrival of the steam- er .t New York. The body of the old man wee found on the Virginia coast, and a1 - though he was known to have • large gum of money on him when he left Norfolk, Va., there was none found on the body. A New York World reporter stated that he had treed Mrs. Oliver and identified her as Mrs. Beaton, of Burlington village. The old man had previously lived in Burling- ton, having retired with • torture of $25,- 000, which he made at carriage building. THE AI.LVA:CU LIBYA - The article altered that Mrs. Beaton 'A- ttained an •ntlueuce over Case, and used to visit him i. Norfolk to extort large gums of moo* from him.
