Charles Paimer, 60, a successful farmer of North Stonington, died Wed- v 1is home in that town after itively brief illness. He was f the late Gershom Palmer, one he best known farmres of that sec- tion. Mr. Palmer was unmarried. He {\'Lm a ‘l'rolher of John P. Palmer of West V. William H.

Mr. Burdick was a char- ter member of Narragansett lodge of Odd Fellows and a member of Bud- long post, G , of Westerly. Miss Harriet C. Pendleton, daughter of the late Capt. William C. Pendieton, died Wednesday at the family home- stead, corner of Main and Cross streets, in her 7Ist year. She leaves a sister, Mrs. Sarah Adelaide Chapman, and a brother, Albert P. Pendleton. It appears that Rosie Giorno, widow of Joseph Giorno, who was killed by a trolley car near the Sweeney switch . is not the only widow of the »d, and is not the one who ap- plied for and received a marriage li- cense on May 22, less than a month after the death of Giorno. The woman connected with the marriage license is irmencia Giorno, who claims to be > widow of the man killed, and has ared her intent to marry Antonio ignatori, with whom she has been living for three years, with two chil- dren bor nto her since taking up her residence with Pignatori. The other widow, Rosie Giorno, mar- ried Joseph in Montevideo, South America, and is the mother of ten children. With her husband she came to Westerly several years ago and by frugal 1 all possible help, they managed to purchase a home. This is the widow who petitioned to the probate court Tuesday for the appointment of an administrator of her husband’'s estate. As near as can be ascertained, wid- ow No. 1 became the wife of Giorno in Italy, and three children were born to them there. Giorno went to South America and he sent for his wife to join him there, but she refused. He then married the woman now widow No. 2 and subsequently came to West- erly. No. 2 had no knowledge that her husband had been previously married until No. 2 came to Westerly and went housekeeping for Pignatori.’ It seems that it was considered sood policy for all concerned not to complicate mat- ters further. Pignatori could not le- gally marry No. 2, while Giorno was living, but soon after the death he took out license to marry. It is not known whether the marriage ceremony has been performed, as no return has yet been made of the marriage certifi- cate. Local Laconics. J. Arthur Atwood and family of Wauregan have leased from Mrs. C. Byron Cottrell her cottage, The Arch- at Watch Hill. Matthew Sullivan, who has been se- riously ill at the home of his mother in New London, has fully recovered and returned to his business in West- erly. Halsey Burdick of 49 Moss street was bitten in the calf of the right leg by a dog harbored in the Marshall premises on the same street. Dr. Scan- lon cauterized the wound and the dog is to be despatched. Lewis G. Crater, instructor of man- ual training in the Westerly High school, has resigned. He is to be an instructor in a Philadelphia trade school. Mr. Crater’s home is in Ches- ter, Pa. He has been in Westerly for two years. William H, Doane arrived at his Watch Hill fottage Wednesday after- noon. Mr. Doane Is in a very much weakened condition due to illness and age. He arrived in a special car and was transferred from the train on a stretcher to a waiting automobile and thence to Watch Hill. He was ac- companied by members of his family and nurses.

Westerly Good Losers. The members of the Westerly high school baseball team, and their adher- ents, are considered good losers in the borough, notwithstanding the fact that all claim to the trophy cup has been lost and that team is barred from the intercollegiate championship, and all on account of the superiority of the team of the Stonington high school. The Westerlyites have suggested the playing of a single game for a silver loving cup, but this is not favored by the Stoningtonians, as nothing must detract from the Interest in the com- ing series with the Bartlett high school team, of Webster, Mass., champions of the northern division of the inter- scholastic league.
