- Mrs. Yulee did not go to her father's, but to the coun- try place of her brother-in-law, Judge Merrick in Mary- land, in order to be near Washington, which was now the center of her hopes — and fears ; for sinister rumors were beginning to circulate. Her father, Governor Wickliffe, came on, saw the Attorney-General, who was a personal friend, and other influential people saw other members of the Cabinet and President Johnson, all only to confirm the rumor that a most determined effort was bei...ng made to have her husband tried by court-martial and executed as had been done with the Suratts. Among the officials at Washington was one from whom Senator Yulee had much right to expect such aid as he could give ; one for whom his efforts had obtained the Post Master Generalship under Buchanan, and who having been the husband of Mrs. Yulee's much loved sister, had, with her, before her death, enjoyed, for months at a time, the affectionate hospitality which Southerners extend to all those who are of their family, by blood or marriage — yet it was this man, Judge Advo- cate General Holt, who was, with unrelenting ferocity, seeking to put him to an ignominious death.
