[edit]A rather singular case of death occurred yesterday morning in the private Lying-in Hospital of Dr. H. D. Grindle, at No. 6 Amity Place, which is surrounded with considerable mystery and suspicion. It appears that Mr. Henry Lattin, aged about fifty years, and a resident of Farmingdale, L. I., had a daughter named Susannah, aged twenty-one, who formerly resided with Andrew Wood, her cousin, in Williamsburg, where she worked. In the month of April last she left home to visit a brother at Glen Cove, where her father saw her on the 13th of that month. Another sister fell ill and died at the parent's residence, when Susannah was sent for, and discovered to be missing, as the brother at Glen Cove had not seen her for nearly three weeks, and supposed her to be home with her parents. One of Mr. Lattin's sons also resides in Brooklyn, near Fulton street, and he received a visit from Susannah in the month of May, about a month after her disappearance from Glen Cove. His wife procured Susannah's clothing from her mother, expecting that the wayward girl would remain with them for some time. A few days after Susannah received her wardrobe she again disappeared, and was supposed to have come over to New York. No trace could be gained regarding the girl's residence or hiding place until Wednesday last, when Mr. Latin received by express, in a roundabout way, the following brief and startling letter:
New York City, No. 6 Amity Place, August 27. — Mr. Henry Lattin. Dear Sir: — Your daughter is at No. 6 Amity Place, very sick with typhoid fever, and I do not expect her to live twenty-tour hours. She inquires about her mother frequently, and wants her to come immediately. Yours truly, E. Daun.
P. S. — Take the Fulton street cars at the ferry and then will take you to the street. E. Daun. The sorrowing parents at once started for New York, and arrived yesterday at Dr. Grindle's house, only to find that their daughter was dead, and that they would be compelled to wait until a Coroner's inquest bad been held before they could obtain possession of the remains.
