faithful nurse no longer availed, Mrs. Bill lings, with characteristic heroistn, decided to place herself under the care of a distin- guished surgeon, seeking to prolong life through an ordeal from which many strong man shrinks
 At first it seemed that recovery, so prayer fully sought, was to be granted, but the an- gel of death had but tarried with his mes sage. Ere the early dawn of the first Sab bath of the new year had touched the hori- zon, a group of heart stricken watchers gathered around the death-be of the beloved wife, sister, friend. But their tender minis trations could no longer detain the soul that heard the voice of God calling to fairer worlds on high. The sensitive spirit feared no evil, safe in the embrace of it's Guide and Comforter, and the shadows of death were il luminated by the light of immortality.
 In union with such departure are the following lines of Christian poet:
 ''when the last summons comes to me,
 Like angel whispering, let it be:
 The Master comes and calls for thee!'
 And friends ~ho final vigils keep
 With this glad thought will cease to weep:
 He giveth his beloved sleep"

Superior Court - Civil Side Jude

Superior Court CiSll Side Judge
 Stoddard.
 This court came in yesterday morning at 10 o'clock.
 In the case of Nichols vs Mccarthy judg- ment was rendered for the plaintiff. The case will be remembered as the one that made such a sensation in Ansonia a year or two ago. Martin Blackman, an aged but wealthy citizen, was beguiled into marrying one Lizzie Foy, who began divorce proceed ings after living with him a few weeks. The old man was scared and settled by paying the woman $5, 900. To make himself doubly safe from his wife's machinations, he turned all his property over to his son in-law, Nc Carthy, who later induced Blackm an to make out warranty deed and substitute it for the trust deed. The old mans friends had Nichols appointed conservator and he has since been suing Mccarthy. Under this de- cision the warranty deed must be returned to Blackman.
