On Monday of last week DR.. Bogardus came
to the city and put up ss the Girard House, in
Chambers street, and on retiring, complained 10
Dr. Davis, with whom he was we'll acquainted,
tia, he was quite unwell The following day,
not feeling able to leave his bed, DR.. Sayer and
other eminent physicians were called in and con.
suited. After several days attendance, they
came to the conclusion that there was something
more than disease of the bods in the case Of
their patient and they intimated TO him the fact,
wIerenpnn DR.. Bogardus frankly informed his
medical advisers that he was deeply attached TO
young lady, to whom he was to be married on
Tuesday (yesterday,) that their marriage had
beentwice frustrated by death, and he now fear.
ed that his own illness would prove . third inter
position to his happiness.
DR.. Saver perceiving the sad effect which the
fear of another disappointment had upon his
mind, suggested the propriety of sending tele
graphic dispatch to Miss Hamilton to come to
New York without delay, for the purpose OF car
ryins ont the wishes OF Dr. Bogardus. The dis
patch was accordingly sent, and Miss Hamilton
arrived about 4 o'clock on Saturday morning,
and as early as possible some Of their friends,
residing in Newark, were sent for TO attend the
marriage ceremony. At o'clock the same day
Dr. Sayne visited his patient, and found him
SO much better that he considered that It would
be unnecessary fo- him to attend again. At
half past o'clock the part es were united, and
nr. BogarGus ex pressed his thankfuness in being
enabled TO carry out his intentions of marriage
to the lady in question. The friends then retired
for few moments for the purpose Of partaking
of some refreshments He then remarked that
he fell SO much better that he would get up,
and at once proceeded to raise himself in bed
his bride, perceiving his efforts to RISE went to
assist him, only to discover that he was expiring
in her arms She instantly sprang to the bell
and rang for assistance but before their friends
could reach the room he was o corpse, and yes
terday afternoon his remains were taken to
Kingston on board the steamer North America,
for interment. The deceased was member of
The Kingston Lodge of Free Masons, and was
very much esteemed by his brother members,
md in accordance with his previously expressed
wish he will be attended by the Order to his
asst resting place.
During the sojonrn at the Girard House, Mr.
Davis, the proprietor, and his gentlemanly as
stants, treated him with the greatest kindness
md attention.-N. Y. Herald 18th.
