WESTERLY MANWEDS IN PROVIDENCE 'Marriage of John A. Lenihan and Miss Helen McGair—Bus- iness in Probate Court—Rev. William F. Krause Trans- ferred tc New Britain—President William B. Walker of : Norwich Thermos Plant Goes to Private Hospital. John A. Lenihan, Direct Importing company in Westerly, and Miss Helen McGair, daughter of Mrs. Mary McGair, 134 Bridgham street, Providence were married Tues- @ay mrning at a nuptial mass in St. Mary’s church, Broadway, Providence, by Rev. Thomas Q' Brien, son of Mi- chael O'Brien of Westerly. The cere- mony was witnessed by many friends in Providence and from Westerly, Blackstone, Woonsocket, Boston and Hartford. The bride wore white duchess satin and bridal veil with a thaplet of orange blossoms. She car- ried a bouquet of bridal roses. The bridesmaid, Miss Margarst Mc- Govern of Providence wore pink pus- sy willow taffeta with lace over; white picture hat with pink feather. She carried pink sweet peas. William J. Lenihan of Westerly, brother of the bridegroom was the best man. The bride’s git t the bridesmaid was a ring with sinal diamond setting. The groom’s gift to the best man was & watch fob. A breakfast was served at the home of the bride’s mother. Mr. and Mrs Lenihan left on the 2:08 train for their wedding trip. They will reside at &1 Summer street, Westeriy.. Congressman Gerry has evidently felt the pulse of the people of West- erly and is acting in accordance there- with, judging from the special Wash- ington correspondence: “The Wester- 1y postmastership case sleeps. It has not awakened,”. said First Assistant Post- iaster General Roper, who has charze ©f postmasters’ appointments, when asked about it. What the reason is for the delay is not learned. If the de- partment is waiting to receive a re- commndation from Mr. Gerry. for fill- ing the office, it would seem that Mr. Gerry is not anxious to have Charles J. Butler, the present in- cumbent, displaced. That was the re- port last fall. Nearly a vear of de- lay would seem to confirm it. Former Lieutenant Governor Roswell B. Burchard will deliver the address at the dedication of the statue to General Nathaniel Greene, Rhode Is- land’s Revolutionary war hero, at uilford battle ground, Greensboro, North Carolina, July 3. The statue is erected by the United States gov- ernment. Mr. Burchard will take as his subject, Nathaniel Greene, the general. The lieutenant governor of Georgia is to speak on Nathaniel Greene, A Citizen of Georgia. Mr. Burchard is the official representative of Rhode sland. The Varnum Conii- nentals and Kentish Guards of East Greenwich will be represented by del- egates. Judge Edward M. Burke presided in Westerly probate court Tuesday after- noon. Attorney John J. Dunn repre- sented Charles D, Wilcox, administra- tor of the estate of his brother, Albert R. Wileox, in support of a petition for an allowance of $400 from the estate of $950 for the erection of a monument to the memory of Albert R. Mr. Dunn explained that the admin! trator was full brother of the de- manager of the]ceased, was as much interested in the estate as any of the three half- brothers, and perhaps more interested than the others in a monument to his own brother. Samuel H. Davis, attorney for one of the half-brothers, Albert Tourgee, Of Brooklyn, N. Y., was not opposed to the erection of a monument, but to the amount named, which was not in pro- portion to the size of the estafe, and suggested that the sum of $250 be al- lowed for the monument. Judge Burke said that. inasmuch as Albert R. Wilcox left no widow or chil- dren, he was inclined to allow a liberal amount for a monument in keeping with the estate and of the station in life of the deceased. He said that while a suitable r:onument could be had for $125, in this case he would grant a sum not to exceed $250. Dr. Dunn asked that in the issuance of the decree there should be nothing to pre- vent the brother, Charles D. Wilcox, adding $150 to the sum allowed, to get what he considered a suitable monu- ment for the deceased. Hobert Edwards, adniinistrator of the estate of Mary A. West, submitted the inventory of the estate, $27.90, which was ordered recorded. Leave was given to sell specified articles at not less than inventory prices. Petition was received for leave to sell land and buildings on the White Rock road and referred to the mext session of court, July 6, with order of notice. Inventories of these estates were re- ceived and ordered recorded: Estate of Rebecca A. Hagar, of Joseph Frank Rose, Santina and Antonio Papalia, of ‘Helen L. Allyn, and Harriet L. York. _Walter S. Price submitted his first and final account as administrator of the estate of Eilen F. Price, which was examined, approved and ordered re- corded. Releases were received for record from h personally _to himself as admini: as ng received his full share of the estate, and from Katherine G. Price to the administrator, full share of as having received her e estate. Rev. William F.

Agent Smith of the-Rhode Isl- and society for the Prevention of Cru- elty to Animals came to Westerly on Tuesday and investigated a case that was cailed to his attention and after a while he declared: ‘T've got the bait and I'm now going a-fishing.” He went direct to Pleasant and Pierce streets, in the Italian colony, and inquired into an alleged case of cruelty to a horse that was inflicted, 5o it is alleged, by a fellow who is not an Italian. Agent Smith received information that when @ horse balked the owner pouredsgaso- line on the anima] and set fire to it, as a means of making the horse move. The animal was so severely burned that death resulted. This is the story that Agent Smith heard and is now in- vestigating. Should the story prove true, there will be immediate prosecu- tion. The roadway in Pleasant street, from Canal to Pierce strects, is being mac- adamized, curbing having been laid in that section of the street. Tuesday morning while the ten-ton road roller was being operated in that street by Martin McGrath the capstone of a drain passing under the street broke under the welght of the roller and the big machine dropped a couple of feet and nearly overturned.
