Everitt, an undertaker and real estate dealer of No. 154 Bergen Ave- nue, Jamaica had been married to- day in the Deputy City Clerk's office at Long Island City to Florence L. T. Cooke, a nurse, who gave her age as i forty years and who sued Mr. Everitt jin June, 1917 for $100,000 for breach lof promise, a reporter congratulated | the aged bridegroom, “Well.” aaid Mr. Everitt, “I've done my duty and I'm going to make the best I can out of it.” “Yes,” put in the bride, an amyle, g00d looking woman, “we've decided to let bygones be bygones and we'll be happy from now on. We :xpect to go South on a honeymoon trip and aftertthat we will live in Jamaica. Bridegroom, bride and Rufus B. Kelton and Frederick R. Bornkamp, who had acted as witnesses to the marriage, entered Mr. Everitt’s limousine and drove away. Subse- quently there arrived at the Borough Hall in Long Island City, after a | worth Building, Manhattan, Richard J. Donovan, who was Miss Cook's counsel in the breach of promise pro- ceeding. Mr, Donovan registered dis- appointment when he heard the mar- riage ceremony had been’ performed, Mr. Everitt is widely known in Queens County. He is reputed to be worth $250,000, Some years ago, when he was ill, Miss Cooke was called in to nurse him, Her home is given in the marriage license as No. 516 Fulton Street, Jamaica In the papers in the breach of promise uit filed nearly a year and & half ago, the plaintiff alleged that she and Mr, Everitt became engaged in April, 1916, and that the marriage was set for Dec. 28 of that year. When Dec, 23 came around Miss Cooke could not find Mr, Everitt. She searched for him in New Jersey and at various Southern winter resorts and finally decided to enter sult for breach of promise. Mr. Everitt, in his answer, said he was willing to live up to his contract to marry, but had been told that mar- riage would be an extremely danger- ous proceeding because he was suf- fering from asthma, myocarditis, which is inflammation of the mus- cular tissues of the heart, and other ailments. Miss Cooke in reply to this plea said that she had seen Mr. veritt months after he had backed out his engagement walking up and down the veranda of his home smok- ing a cigar and singing melodiously, The suits dragged along in the courts until September, 1918, when, | because of alleged errors in the orig- inal papers, counsel for the plaintift was instructed by a Sup me Court | Justice to prepare another com~ jplaint. This was done and a trial ntictpated early next year. | “Nise Cooke, at the time of fling her suit, said she believed members of Mr, veritt's family had influenced him to break his engagement. Mr, Everitt did fnot attempt to deny that he had pro ined to marry his nurse, but excusod his failure on the ground of danger to his life because of his precarious physical condition. When asked to-day if he was still suffering from the ailments he feared might prove fatal in 1916 Mr. Everitt reirained from making a reply. ie rhe body of Mrs, Charlotte Moore, a , forty years old of No. 139 Went Mth Street, was found to-day tying in Central Park Lake near: the Bow firidge, 724 Street and Centra!

I was much impressed wite the spirit and courage Roger put forth in the fight, and he died for a glorious cause and fighting to tho last, His observer, who also went down with him, was Lieut.

Powers of the same squadron added his tribute to that of Comey in writing to Mrs. Hitchcock. He said: “Roger was one of the very best pilots we had in the squadron, always ready and willing to undertake any miswion across the lines, There was one fight in particular in which he took part that stands out above them all. It was about Aug. 11. His ob werver, Lieut.

When he was killed in the later battle his commission as First lieutenant was lying in the mall, He wrote to his wife of this and said that he and Lieut, Burns were attacked by three enemy planes which flew out of the sun without warning and opened on them with machine gums. een HARBOR RESTRICTIONS OFF.
