He was very mysterious at the Commodore yesterday, said that he had them all guessing because he not quoted a price on his car but would throw the bomb later n the week. The Marmon Company sent C.

As for being a recluse— well, he spends more time in travel- ling than he spends in Stratford; and, as for finding It hard to get along with his neighbors, he declares that after years of trying as one of a scant number of Democrats to get an equalization of taxes with others he could mention in that Republican community, he has given it up as a hopeless jun. “Everything we do,” he said, refer- ring also to his brother, Stephen N. Boothe, “is printed in the papers. Hardly anything 1s ever printed cor- rectly. I get married, as nearly all men do some time, and immediately it's mentioned in the papers and with it something untrue about me, as, for instance, why I stopped the clock on top of my museum behind the house. I'm sick of it, and both my brother and I would move away from here were we not held by sentiment for the old homestead in which we were born and which Is the oldest house in America, built by Richard Boothe in the year 1639," Stratford was surprised Saturday to learn Mr. Boothe had deen married to Miss Norton, who is a graduate of Vassar, '15, and the daughter of Mrs. Elizabeth Boothe Norton of Cheshire by the Rev. William H, Je n at St. Iake's Church, Che: Christmas e, C ather and Mrs. Day, Mr, Boothe's Norton's grandfat! were first consins. “I had known Ruth, of course, all her life,” said Mr. Boothe s.mply. “We had seen a lot of each other during the past two or three years, I didn’t know I was in love with her until last fall. My brother was away ona trip up in Canada and 1 had more opportunity to sce her and lea-n what my feeling for her was, T asked her to marry me. She accepted and we were married. Her mother and my brother attended the ceremony, Nothing peculiar about that, is thers? Lots of people get married that way and nobody thinks it's strang Mr. Boothe deplored the way some newspapers get things wrong about getting along with his neighbors. “We just let them alone,’ he said. “Twenty-five years ago we thought the town didn’t do the right thing by putting the street car line over by the river instead of running it through the town, where it'd do good for the most people, We said so and that made them’ angry with us. Ever since they've been trying to tako it out of us on taxes. “When we op- posed the building of a road over a corner of our place, where it would help only a few politicians, instead of through the middle, where it would have helped the town, that also made them sore. “We were Democrats and the Ro- publican officers started taxing our land for twice as much as they taxed similar land of Republicans, We pro- tested, but it got us nothing, quit having anything to do with them Dut not altogether until the thing about the museum came up. “My brother and J, living in the oldest house in the country and being interested in New England antiquities, decided it would be a fine thing for the town if we could get a collection of ancient New England implement together and form them as an ex- hibition. We did, placed them in a remodeled barn and put on top of it | a four-dial clock with a set of West- minster chimes to commemorate the 276th anniversary of the town, The clock cost $3,000. “Everybody was admitted free to the musedm and we are glad to have anybody come now to look at them. Naturally, it being a public place and of benefit to the town, our taxes on dore. In the evening the N. Ac.
