Boston, Oct. 26 - W.D. MANSFIELD the husband of Mrs. Maggie MANSFIELD of this city, formerly well known in different parts of New Brunswick, who has been missing for 14 years and mourned as dead, has been heard from by his relatives. Mansfield, who is a native of Framingham, Mass., met a Moncton girl, Miss Maggie WALLACE in Lynn over 20 years ago while the latter was visiting friends here. She was a handsome girl of a well known family. Her father was David WALLACE, a Canadian government contractor and the builder of St. John breakwater. Her uncle was Hon. John WALLACE, a N.B. politician and J.J. WALLACE of the I.C.R., Moncton, her brother. Maggie's mother was a Miss STEEVES of Albert Co. and a sister of Dr. J.T. STEEVES, superintendent of the insane asylum, St. John. To cut a long story short, Mansfield and Miss Wallace were married in 1871 and after living two years in Lynn, where a daughter was born, they went to Mrs. Mansfield's old home and purchased a hotel at Hillsboro. For nine years they lived apparently happy and one morn. Mansfield went away. Some said a woman was in the case, but his wife said he merely went west to make some money. He wrote for a few weeks, the last letter bearing a New York date. Her reply was never answered and after a few years she gave him up for dead. She sold the hotel and came to Boston where her daughter is now married. Three months ago she heard that her long lost husband was alive and that he had telegraphed from Buffalo to J.J. WALLACE, Moncton asking if Maggie was alive and married again and if his daughter was married. Mr. Wallace replied, it is said, answering the questions. Upon this Mansfield wrote to George WALLACE of Dorchester, N.B. giving an explanation of his departure years before. He said it was his own fault. George Wallace replied and told Mrs. Mansfield here. She also received a copy of her husband's letter and her daughter addressed a letter to Buffalo, but no answer has yet been received. They have not given up hope, however. His family aree still true to him and the door plate still bears the name 'W.D. Mansfield'.
