Her Life-lion^ lltutlc lor Her Ki^lits ?A ItomniK'R ??f Low ami I .aw. Mrs. Vyra Clark (iaines, wlio ?lictl ai Now Orleans Friday nitrlit, 1ms fur many years; been a prominent figure in society at Washington and New Orleans. Sluwas the most famous litigant that over lived in this country, and in the course of the fifty years of litigation in which she was engaged such men as Pnnicl Webster, Caleb (lushing, Cluis. O'Conor. Judali P. Henjamin and others of the ablest lawyers of the ago were employed in the cases. The story of Mrs. Gaines's career reads like a romance, llermotlier was a beautiful Creole, who, at the age of fourteen, married a brilliant young Frenchman named M.de Grange, but, learning that ho had n wife already livinir. she b?fi bim and married Daniel Clark, an irifliiciilitil Irishman, owning largo estates in Louisiana and much property in Philidelphin. They were secretly married rn Philadelphia ahout 1803. hut ho never acknowledged his wife publicly. Myra was the second child of this union. She was horn in New Orleans. Clark persuaded the mother to give tip the child and placed it. with a friend in Philadelphia, who promised faithfully to care for her. Not long after this Clark waa sent to Washington as the first Louisiana Delegate to Congress, and his wife learning thathc was unfaithful, separated from him. With (loinostic trouble came business disasters which made Clark think lie would loose all his propovty, and he therefore conveyed to his friend, the guardian of Mvra. $700,000 in trust for the child, and made a will which pave the rest of his estate to his mother. lie had previously made a will leaving the hulk of his property to charitable institutions, and naming as his executor and administrator his business partner, who was also his confidential friend. Recovering from his losses, and finding himself still amassing wealth, he made another will, making his daughter sole heiress of *11 he posessed. He soon after died under circumstances which led to ihe belief that he had been noisoncd. Clark's first will was recorded by his partnej the day after his death. The will leaving his wealth to Myra was never found, but an aged negro in Clark's service testified that lie had seen his partner open his secretary after his death nnd take from it a sealed document and burn it. When, some years later. the partner was told that Myra had declaired in open court that her father had made this will and it had been destroyed bjan interested party, hr oxclaimed /'Good God ! did she say that ?" And throwing up bis arms, fell dead from apoplexy As a child, Myra was kept in ignorance and seclusion, ber guardian, it is Alleged, hoping thereby to obtain complete control of the $7(K),CXX) which he held for her. At twenty he selected for tier a husband who was likely to further his aims, but she had already fallen in love with William Whitney, the son of a wealthy Philadelphia)). When thcrofore, Whitney spoke to the guardian About marrying Myra, there was a scene, from which Myra learned for the first time that she was not her guardian's daughter, but nothing was s-iid about the $700,CXX). As the wife of William Whitney, Myra hail a luxn;i??us home, a kind husband and intelligent friends. From a Southern gentleman she learned of her rights and of ht-r just title to firnnorf \r !*"" v<cu men norm millions oi dollnra. She also learned Hint her mother still lived, and that her good name had remained all these years under A dark cloud. To see her mother and prove her marriage to her father was Mrs. Whitney's lirst thought. The beautiful home was abandoned, and a few weeks later Mr. and Mrs. Whitney were Jiving in New Orleans, and had taken the first plunge into the litigation. This was about 1K??2, Hlie was at first successful, but her husband died of yellow fever, leaving her with three small children to fight out the contest. To legal opposition were added slanders about the character of the beautiful young widow, and even attempted assassination. For the sake of her children and her own name she pressed her suits with visor. Hut hor jneans run low. When she had tiiuilly reached a desperate strait, and was exposed to insult and poverty in New Orleans, she was hefriended hy (Joneral I). 1*. Cainus, the hereof i*'ort Krie, nnd an old friend of her father. He was her gallant protector. and she at length became his wife. Hh.- thereafter had a respectful hearin g. 'I he suit w?? carried to the United States Bupreme Court three times on questions of practice, and At length, by compromise with one oT the defendants, she gained a victory in 1818, the United States Supreme Court declaring thnt a marriage had taken place, and that Myrn was entitled to four-fifths of Clark's estate. Bnt Mrs. Gaines found that to securo the property she would have to bring suits against each of its owners in succession, Her suit againgt the executors fetched a hearing in tho Supreme Court in 1851. The defense was vigorous this time, and sh<> found herself nonsuited ?t the end of nineteen years, the Court reversing its former decision as to the marriage of her mother. - V'-' In 1846 hor husband had died, and now, unaided, she again began suit under the will which, it was alleged, had been destroyed by her father's partner She won at every step up to the United States Supreme Court, which decided in her favor in 18(51. The war stopped tin litigation, bu* at its close she was ready igain. and in 18t><? hor rijjhts were reafinn<-d in tin.' United States Supreiin Court. The property, which include.the best parts of New Orleans, was thei. worth .$KXJ,(J()0.tM)(J. I&ul ihe .) udgonients obtained by her iii the Supreme Court of the nation siinph .lecided her right to bring suit against the individual occupants of her property. The number was great. She pressed {lie one againgt the city of New Orleans, ind it was determined, in 1883, that tin city was indebted to hor in the sum ol The long light, however, wore her life out, and oil last Friday night she died. She was taken ill December, 27, her 78th birthday, with pneumonia. Three days ago she tnad< her will, but was too weak to affix hei name, and signed it with a cross. Hei son-in-law, J. G. Chrismas of Washing* ington, was the only relative present. She is described as a slender lit tit* woman with hrillinnt eyes and vivacious manners, ami was at once witty ami eloquent in conversation. The funeral of Mrs. Gaines took place Saturday afternoon from the residence ol Mrs. L. I,. Davis, No. 150 Thalia street, in New Orleans. The house of mourning was thronged with ladies and gentlemen who had known the deceased lady in life, conspicuous among them heing many leading members of the bar headed by !udge Hillings of the United States District Court.

When the toinh was oppiiod the coffin of Clark and its contents were found to have crumbled to dust, nothing remained in bone tor wood to remind the beholder of its character. Mrs. Gaines leaves six grandchildren, three being residents of Wnsh. ington and three at school. Iler son and daughter are dead. Nkw Oui.kaxs.
