When James Reilly the prisoner in
the county Jail, took unto himself
Laura V. Leonard as a wife in the jail
last Tuesday he also found in her an
angel of mercy. Since the marriage
the woman has expended every effort
to have her. husband released from
Jail.
Yesterday she was seen with her 1S-
months-old child, from a former hus-
band, in her arms tramping about
through the slush of the streets In
search of persons whom she was told
might lend their influence to her pur-
pose.
Reilly, it will be remembered, broke
into and robbed George Felton's cut
lery store, at the corner of Penn ave-
nue. and Spruce street, last Novem-
ber. He was captured at Nanticoke
with a man named Bead and both
were committed to jail after a hearing.
Three other men were arrested and
are now in Imprisonment, but, it Is
said, Reilly and Bead, sooner than have
the innocent suffer. confessed to the
burglary.
But Reilly Is now a married man.
He has someone else in the world to
look out for besides himself, and Jail
is very bad place to supply a fam
lily larder from. So with the changed
conditions, Reilly has changed. He
wants to settle down and live an honest
life with his wife.
But the crime at his door is knock
ing. His fate rests with the grand
| jury, which meets today. Mrs. Reilly
| had been informed that her husbands S
| case would come up before the grand
| jury yesterday and during all the day
she hung about the court house, wait
| ing for the appearance Of the prose-
| cutors.
Finally, when the jury adjourned
and the burglary case was still un-
heard, Mrs. Reilly, with her child
started to look up Mr.. FELTON, and have
him neglect to appear against her hus-
band.

JAMES j. LYNCH DEAD.
Prominent OIypbaut Merchant and
Capitalist Passes Away at 1910
O'clock This Morning.

James j. Lynch, whose serious ill
ness of pneumonia was noted in yes
terday's Tribune, died this morning at
1910 o'clock at his home in Olyphant.
He caught heavy cold during the
holidays and it rapidly developed into
acute pneumonia. Before many days
his condition was serious and for the
past five days it has been alarming.
Thursday night his life was despaired
of, but he rallied towards morning
and yesterday was so much improved
that hopes for his recovery were enter
tanned. With the face of night, how
ever, his condition changed for the
worse and at IL o'clock his attending
physicians notified the family that the
end was at hand. He passed away
peacefully, a short time after midnight
No man Of the upper valley was more
prominent or held in higher esteem
than Mr.. Lynch. For thirty-nine years
he lived in the borough of Blakely and
for a quarter of a century was one of
the leading merchants of Olyphant.
He was the president of the Olyphant
Water company; president of the Price
burg Electric Light company, and a
stockholder in various industrial en-
terprises in his home town and this
city, the Scranton Packing company
and the Scranton Steam Heat and
Power company being among the
Scranton commercial organizations in
which he was interested.
An instance of the respect and con-
fidence in which his community held
him is found in the fact that he has
served for twenty-three successive
years as a member Of the Blakely poor
board.
Mr.. Lynch was the first jury com.
missioner of Lackawanna county, and
has frequently since been mentioned
for county offices, but has declined t.
enter politics.
He was so years of age. His wifi,
and six children survive him. Tht
| children are Francis NJ, who is a
| Yale; Bart, general manager of hi
| fathers store; Leo, also at Yale; Grace
the only daughter and Austin, Gerald
and Stanley.
