Th# Might to an Mstnio Mhowm hy a Visitor from ahaaowianOU New York Telegram.i A lawsuit will be bsgnn shortly which involves s strange story of romance and mystery. The plaintiff is a client ef lawyer Benjamin Patterson, of No. 234 Broadway, Mrs. Grace Huthnell is her name. 8b* is a woman in the prime of life, eomely and intelligent. Her home is at Grssnbnsh, near Albany. Lawyer Patterson has friends in Greenbush, who recommended him to hor

for advice.

Mrs. Bushnsll is the widow of the late John Francis Bmhnell. who served in the Ninth New York Cavalry during the late war. Bashnell entered the army as a private. At th* ead of the war he retired with the rank of major. H* settled down in upper New York, married the present Mrs. Bushnell, who was his second wife, ia 1867; and b* died without issue in 1889. Since the beginning of the year Mss. Bashnell has been a regular weekly visitor to lawyer Patterson's office. She dots not claim to bo a spiritualist, but certain revelations which sbs says have been given to her in dreams are tending to make her a stanch believer in tbs supernatural. Mrs. Bushnell’s first visit to lawyer Patterson occurred on January 4. She intro-

Maj< ~ ■ —

of idea that tb* large estate at Port Richmond, 6. I.. belonged to her. When Mr. Patterson asked th* lady to give her reasons she said that the only one she bad was re-

vealed to her in a dream.

“On New Year’s eve,” she explained, “I fell asleep while looking iato thfi lire. I dreamed that my husband appeared at mv side. He twined his arm abont my neck and fpldinc ms to his breast he said: ‘Gracie! Yon are poor and yon ought to be rich. There is a big estate in Port Richmond which belongs to you. It belonged to me while I lived, but I never told yon abont it. I had intended to mention it to you before 1 died, but I left your world

suddenly and eculd not.’

Mr. Patterson felt very sceptical when h# heardithis and told Mrs. Bashnell very candidly that he did not think it worth his while to institute an investigation on the vary flimsy basis she offered. He spoke to her* kindly and advised bur to go home,

dream again and get more facts.

Mrs. Bushnell did dream again. Within a week she was back at the lawyer's office with an elaboration of her first dream. Bb* said that the late Maior Bashnell ha* appeared from thadowland onoe more. In answer to her questions b* said that the estate had an extent of about twenty acres, that it was on the river front and that it

contained abont three hundred lota.

Bat the lawyer continued to remain sceptical and look npon his visitor as the dupe af spiritualists, which she was not, aad a very emotional woman, which she really was. Mrs. Bashnell continued her visits, aad althoagh sbs was anabls to gather any mors facts abont tke estate from her ghostly husband she became more aad more clamorous ia her requests that a search should be mad* for her title. Mrs. Bushnell offered a liberal fee as a reward for the work, which fee Mr. Patterson refused, for his client was by no means wealthy. Impressed, however, by the earnestness and suae what annoying pendstenee of tha
