WEDDINGS, Watt—Clark. The home of A. M. Clark in New Britain was the scene of a pretty home wedding on Saturday evening, when Lila Cary Clark of that city and Al- fred John Watt of Hartford, formerly of Montville, were united in’ marriage by Rev. Dr. O. 8. Davis of the South Congregational church, New Britain, The house was tastefully decorated with palms, smilax carnations. The bridal gown was of blue silk, in princess style, and the bride carried a bridal bouquet of roses. Ann Bradford Cary Clark, sister of the bride, was the “one attendant, as maid of honor, gowned in white embroidered batiste and carrying pink carnations. The wedding march from Lohengrin was rendered in a most excellent manner by Lucretia, youngest sister of the bride. ‘The ceremony was followed by a re- ception at which only the immediate relatives were present. Both young people have a wide cir- cle of friends and were the reciplents of many handsome presents. They will be at home after Feb. 1at No, 2 Putnam Heights, H)rdord,‘ PERSONAL.

ANOTHER ADDITION TO FIFTH OOMPANY'S TROPHIES. Have Won Mlny Honorl in the Exist- | ence of Orgaization, Which Dates from Soon After the War. The Fifth company, Coast Artlllery.‘ Captain Tarbox, have hung in their compauy parlor the bronze shield which | they won the past summer ior being | high in rifle practice, thus adding an- | other to the many trophies won dur- ing the existence of the company, of over forty years, although changing the name several times during those vears. After the close of the civil war many | of the Norwich veterans who wished to continue the friendships and fra- ternity gained in their country's ser- vice organized a militia company. Ev- ery ‘member of the new organization was a veteran of the civil war. The first captain was J. Elbridge Wood- | ward, late captain of Company F, 1§th V. The company became Company C, Third regiment, C. N. G. It was called the Buckingham Guard, but lat- | er this name was changed and the com- pany was called the Norwich City Guards. For many years it was known, as the veteran company of the brigade. Ori one occasion, in camp, there was a discussion among the officers about which company had the most veterans. Two captains claimed this honor, and they decided to Investigate. It was found that one company had 45, while Company C had 95. Company C, in combination with Company B, participated in the enter- tainment of the famous Seventh New York regiment when it visited this city. The_testimonial sent to Norwich by the Seventh New York can now be secn in_the City hall. In June, 1878, the Hillyer Guard, Compavy ' B, First regiment, visited Norwich, and was entertained by Com- pany C. The testimonial from the Hillvers now hangs in the company’s parior. In June, 1885, the Manchesier Rifies, Company G, First regiment, came to Norwich and were quartered at the Wauregan. Company C made a special parade, and was present at the banquel in the evening at the Waure- gan. Captain Tarbox was & member of the Manchester Rifles at the time, and remembers well the felicitous speech made by General J. B. Coit. When the call came for troops for the Spanish war, Compapny C respond- ed promptly and went Into the service with the Third Connecticut Volunteers, under the late Colonel Augustus Y. Tyler. The company has acted as escort to the G. A. R. on \{emorll! day,, with but two exceptions, ev: year “since that day has been obaervad.” The first exception was in 1566, when the com- pany, being composed entirely of vet- erans, paraded, as veterans instead of as militia. The second exception was when the uniforms had been sent away for repairs and were not returned in time, In fact, the company has been ac- tive in_the life of Norwich during the forty-three years of its existence, One of its members became the captain of a light battery, U. . A., and another is mow a first lleutenant in the rez- ular army. Two of its captains, W. F. Bidwell and F, A. Fox, became ma- jors of the Third regiment. When Company A was organized the three commissioned officers, Captain Fox and Lieut. John A. Hagberg and Charles A. Hagberg and most of the non-commissioned officers had been schooled in Company C. The success of the.new organization speaks well for the school in which they were trained. When the Third infantry was chang. ed to the coast artillery corps, Com- pany C became the Fifth company, but it retains its records and is proud of tho early history of the organiza- tion, When Captain Fox was in command, Mrs. A, C. Tyler gave the Tyler tro- phy, a ‘cup valued at several hundred dollars, to be competed for by the companies of the Third regiment. If | it should be won three times by the same company it was to become the property of that organization. The first year it was won by Company C under Captain Fox, the second year by the same company under Captain Howard, and the third vear again by Company C under Captain Kingsley. In recent yvears It has twice won the second prize in the baitallon shoots. On one occaston Comptany I of New London was first and Company A of Norwich third, on the other Company M of Danielson was first Company A third. ~During the season of 1908 it won the national trophy, a bronze shield, ag its individual figure of mer- it was the highest in the C. A. C. which is made up of fourteen compa- nies. The company won range honors at the local rifle range on the spring l field day, and won the sub-caliber am- munition at Fort Terry in 1908 for making the best record in battery drill, This record was within two seconds of the best time made by the regu- lars.
