''t Busi'na9s 10 FOR A BUTTON OFF I TESTING DUTCHESS TRCUStRS. I THEYHQLD inl UimfU. HOOYOU. 1 Marriage of one of Ludlow's Popular young ladies to Rutlandl railroad conductor, Wednesday. A very attractive wedding took place at the Churoh of the Annuncia tion Wednesday morning, Nov.

22, at nine o'clock, when Thomas C. Corcoran of Rutland and Miss Margaret Rock were united in marriage by the pastor, Rev. Fr, Carmody. Miss Ellz abeth Rock, sister of the bride, acted as bridesmaid, and Frank Conniff of Rutland was best man. The bride and bridesmaid were prettily gowned in dresses of gray lansdowne, trimmed with white crepe and steel passemen trie.

Mrs. J. N. Lamere played the wedding march. David and John Rock, brothers of the bride, acted as ushers.

A large number of people witnessed the ceremony, after which the relatives and intimate friends of the bride and groom were invited to the home of the bride's mother, Mrs. Mary Rock, on Depot street, where an elegant breakfast was served and the day spent in merry making. Friends of the young couple arrived on nearly every train during the day, and the party spent the evening dancing after music furnished by Sanford Emery of Proctorsville. The bride and groom are very popular young people, and the esteem in which they are held was shown by the unusually numerous and costly presents of which they were the recipients. Mr.

Corcoran is a conductor on the Rutland railroad, and the young couple will reside in Rutland. Their many friends in Ludlow wish them tbe best of success. McGrath. Dennis McGrath, aged 60, died at his home on Depot street last Sunday night at an unknown hour. Mrs.

Mc Grath on arising in the morning found her husband dead in his chair. He was employed on a picker in F. Agan's shoddy mill where bis wife also worked. They have resided in Ludlow for many years and are well known here. The funeral was held at the house Wednesday interment in the village Riley.

Thomas Riley died at the state in sane asylum at Waterbury Monday, Nov. 20, aged 68 years. He was a resident of Ludlow and his widow lives on Pond street with hef son, Will Riley, and. his two daughters. He had been in the Brattleboro and Water bury insane asylums for over twenty one years having been the unfortunate victim on monomania on the subject of telephones, and at times becoming violent, it was deemed necessary to confine him.

On all other subjects he was rational, but when speaking of telephones he would develope some of tbe wildest ideas, and he knew that something was the matter with his head and thought that the town authorities were responsible. Finally he made an attack on Sheriff Howe and cut his head open with a club, which was the immediate cause of his con flnement. He was a bright, respected man and was employed in the Ludlow Woolen mill as a wool-sorter. His death, coming to relieve him of his sufferings, and his unfortunate widow of a source of worry and anxiety, can not be regretted, although to his fam ily it is a personal loss of a loved one and so mourned. Mrs.

Riley has been very unfortunate and has the undivin sympathy of the community iu her deep trouble. The funeral was held at the widow's home on Pond street yesterday morn ing at ten o'clock Rev. J. E. Badger officiating.
