"Our Church Record, "a paper published
in Athol, Mass, in the issue of March IS
contained the following which is OF loca
interest as Mr.. Fitzsimmons was for yeal
or more Y. M. G. A. secretary in Bellows
Falls: "Mr. and Mrs. A. r. Cobb of Elk
change street announce the marriage en-.
gagement of their daughter, Miss S.Evelyr
| Cobb, to George Fitzsimmons, secretary
OF the local Y. M. G. Augmentation. In.
asmuch as the pastor OF the congregation
did not officiate at any marriage last year
and as it has become widely known that he
is particularly apt IT that capacity, the
young people of the church put their head:
together and determined that the record o.
the past year must be improved upon. Mr.
Fitzsmmons naturally took bis place at the
head OF the procession and others will soor
fall in. Meanwhile, the pastor is recu.
peratipg and hopes soon to be ready fol-
the arduous work which he may be called
upon to perform. Both Mr.. Fitzsimmons
and Miss Cobb are comparatively new com.
ers to town, but during their stay here
have won many friends, who will join il
extending congratulations and best wishe:
for lonS, happy and useful life together
