Much Married Man.

Miss Jennie M. Larkin OF Benning-
ton Center, a stenographer and type
writer there, created a slight sensation
Oct. 18th by marrying Thomas
Lamm at Williamstown, Mass, in
stead Of the rising young lawyer in
her own county TO whom she was re-
ported to be engaged. The morning
after her marriage she returned alone
and resigned her position and a few
days later accompanied her husband
to Pownal, where her mother was Wis
iting, to inform her OF the marriage.
He told plausible stories Of his BUSH
ness and legacy recently left him and
il came out that he was a former
lover of Miss Larkin's, who had been
driven away by some misunderstand-
ing, but had made her a clandestine
visit a month before she met him in
Williamstown.
The mother did not approve Of the
marriage and set herself to work to
find out who Mr.. Lamm Was. He
claimed to have mother in Pulaski,
N. Y, as well as property there. She
wrote to the postmaster there making
inquiries and he replied that Mr..
Lamm had no mother living there,
but had wife. Further investiga-
tions showed that Mr.. Lamm was a
much married man, having at least
two wives living before he married
this one. The mother learned that
they were in Springfield and going
there found the bride OF two weeks,
the groom being away on business
trip. Mrs. Lamm accompanied her
mother home and is now in seclusion.

The most serious fire in Bristol in
twenty-seven years broke out in the
grocery store of Ira Stuart in the
Union block at 4 O'Clock last week
Wednesday morning. The entire
block and the adjoining postoffice
block were destroyed and other build
ings damaged. The total loss is es-
timated at fifty thousand dollars. The
numerous storekeeper~ who occupied
the burned buildings saved about
two-thirds of their stocks, although
one or two firms succeeded in saving
only their account books. The con-
tents Of the postoffice were saved so
the loss on it amounts to less than
$1,000. Most OF the firms burned out
carried insurance, but c. f. Dixie,
hardware, had no insurance on his
store. His loss will he over $1,000.
