Willlams, who is 63 years of age, was accompanied by his wife, a hand- some woman of less than 30 years,| who broke down and cried bitterly when sentence was passed. Willlams® crime was one of the most atroclous in the history of this county, and only his advanced age, which made any sen- | tence practically for life, influenced the | judge to leniency. —_— AGED ADMIRAL TAKES BRIDE BOSTON, Oct. 23-—Rear Admiral Thomas O.
