The unfortunate wife became insane, passed some time in an asylum, ultimately recovering under the careful kindness of a Captain O'Neil, who had long loved her, and now besought her to leave her cruel husband and share his fortunes. For a long time she resisted his appeals, but finally, ascertaining that her husband had taken steps to obtain a divorce from her, and that Captain O'Neil was her only friend, she consented. They went to Galway, Ireland, where they were married privately, and took up their residence.

But on one fatal night the ranch was attacked by a party of Camanche Indians, his cousin and Estelle were murdered, and he carried off into captivity.
