where he stood, as he was soon met by

bride, whom the father with happily
chosen words presented to the bridegroom,
and upon this the attractive and interest
ing pair were made one, as husband and
wife.
AS the ceremony was completed, all felt
that it was a fortunate union, and they re-
ceved glad greetings from minister, par
ents, brothers and sisters and nephew.
The acts, the attire and the words spoken,
were becoming the occasion.
AS the first greeting was over, all were
ushered into an adjoining room to a
sumptuous repast, where the serving and
food were of high order. AT the conclu-
sion of the festive joys, all repaired to the
parlor again, inspecting the many presents

ding as one of the happiest.

Boston Il Maine station agent at Green
field committed suicide Sunday by taking
four ounces of laudanum. He was found
in an unconscious condition by his wife at

found evidences of poisoning and Medical

was aroused sufficiently to state that he
had taken the poison, but he gave no rea-
son for doing so and soon became uncon-
scious again, remaining in that condition
until death took place about 6 o'clock. 1t is
thought that his sufferings from Bright's
disease led him to take his own life.

was a member of the Both Massachusetts
regiment during the civil war. He had
been the station agent at Greenfield since
his brother II. +. Howard, now a promi-
nent official of the Boston S Maine road,
