Obituary.
DR.. A. E. Budd of Mount Holly, we'll
known to and highly esteemed by the
people Of Huntington County, died at his
residence on Garden street, on Monday
afternoon.
He had been suffering for more than
year past with as he supposed, diabetes,
bat later on it was believed that his sick
ness came from fall some two years
since from a sleigh. While rapidly and
noticeably failing in health, the Doctor
attended his patients up 10 within a
month of his death, when he became so
much debilitatej that he found it neces-
sary to seek rest and visited Atlantic City.
Still failing he returned home with the
expectation Of visiting some spring, but
became go weak that he dared not ven
ture away from home, where he passed
away as above stated.
DR.. Budd was born at Woodbury., July
IS, 1877, studied for the medical profes-
sion at the University of Pennsylvania
and graduated in 1912. He first located
at Vincentown, afterwards at Medford
and finally settled in Mount Holly about
the year 1863 lie was a prominent
member of the County Medical Society
and served several terms as school Trus-
tee in this district, being District Clerk
at the time of his death. A more truly
honest man, or better or more indus
trious man has never been taken from
our midst. Quiet and remarkably unob-
trusiye, possessed with warm hearted
manner and very civil in his address, his
thoroughly consistent department, oblig-
ing disposition and great integrity Of
character were appreciated by large
circle Of friends. We shall miss him as
a friend to THE News, and as an adviser
in many families where his profession
took him he will be sadly missed.
The funeral will take place tomorrow
friday at II A. M. Interment at Mount
Holly Cemetery

HaIsey the Bigamist.
The following in relation to William
4. Halsey formerly of Mount Holly is
taken from the ST.. Louis Globe Democrat:
This city is horrifed at scandal which
has come to light. About six weeks ago
W. r. Halsey, Superintendent of the
Quapaw Cotton Mills, went to Marshall,
Texas, where he married Miss Peacock,
and returned TO this city, taking board
with JEFF Batsford, of the Merchants Ma
tional Bank. AT 2.2O o'clock one after
noon beautiful lady accompanied by a
4-year-old child, arrived from Philadel-
phia and registered at the Capital House
as Mrs. W. r. Halsey. She then got into
carriage drove to the MILL, ascertained
that he had another wife, and came back
to the hotel, where it soon became known
that she was Halsey's wife. Detective
Adams went to the house where Halsey
and his wife No. 2 were at supper, and
arrested him, bringing him to the hotel.
A sad scene then occurred, the wife faint.
ing, the child calling papa, papa" and
other endearing names To the officer he
admitted that she was his wife, and re-
fused to talk abolt the matter. He was
then arrested on a charge of bigamy, and
lodged in Jail in default of 81, 500 bail.
The Philadelphia wife telegraphed for
her brother in the same city to come to
her assistance. Halsey takes matters
coolly, and says he has been abused by
the Philadelphia wife through the influ-
ence of her relatives"
The Camden Democrat adds the follow
ing to the above:
Halsey was Superintendent of Collins
cotton min, located OH Pine street Mount
Holly, and operated by bis brother-in-
law of Philadelphia. The mill was set
on fire one night and it was the prevail
ing opinion that Halsey was the man
that did it. While here he associated
with woman of doubtful character and
made frequent trips to Philadelphia with
her. Mrs. Halsey is said to be very
fine woman and much too good for him.

Military Matters.
"We notice in some Of the papers that
Gen. E. Burd Grubb is spoken of as the
future Colonel of the Seventh Regiment"
So says the Burlington Enterprise. If
Colonel Angel resigns, Lieutenant Col
onel Donnelly will be the future Colonel
of the Seventh Regiment. We do net
see the necessity of going outside of the
regiment to fill vacancies.
Since the above was written it has
been announced that the position of Col
onel Angel has been declared yacaut,
owing to his business interests calling him
from the State for prolonged period.
Lieutenant Colonel R. A. Donnelly has
been In command Of the regiment since
he has held the rank of Lieutenant Col
onel, and now he will without a doubt be
promoted to the colonelcy, and these
changes will put the silver leaf upon the
shoulders of Major John c. Patterson.

Donnelly and Lieutenant Colonel Patter-
