DIED AFTER MARRIAGE vows.
His Last Act Was to Slip on the We'd
 ding Ring

Bridgeport, June 1.-Thomas F. Shee- han, lying on his deathbed, had just strength to place q ring on the hand of Margaret Frances Bryan, who had long been his sweetheart, and to mur mony
 The priest had concluded the cere- mony only a short time before he turn ed to another part of the prayer book and administered extreme unction, for the doctors said that Sheehan was dying.
 The bridegroom was dead, and the bride, young and charming girl was widow within few hours
 Sheehan was a business man of Nor walk and was member of the Nation- al Guard. His fiancee, Miss Bryan, lived at No 225 East Twenty fifth street, New York.
 They had planned to end their long courtship with June marriage. All the arrangements were complete and neither dreamed of any obstacle.
 While visiting this city a week ago Sheehan, who had been in good health, was attacked with q hemorrhage. He was taken to the Bridgeport hospital The doctors said there was no hope for him, and his fiancee was sent for.
 She stayed by his side early and late. Then came the declaration that he was rapidly sinking and could live only few hours.
 Mary me before I die, Margaret," he begged, ill a voice scarcely above q whisper. sIf we are married 1 shall feel that the parting will not be so bad. I will walt for you in the other world"
 Miss Bryan wept and consented The Rev A. Chapignac, assistant at St Mary's church i'll East Bridgeport, was sent for. He came for a double scr- vice-to perform the wedding and to administer tho rites of the Catholic church for tho dying.
 The nurses propped the bridegroom up in bed on pillows and blankets. He was very wenk--hardiy able tq follow the ritual. The witnesses were doc tors, nurses and some friends of Sheehan.
 When tile point in tho ceremony was reached wherc the wedding ring Is placed ol the brides hand Miss Bryan held the weak fingers of the dying man and assisted him.
 After the wedding the bridegroom slowly sank Ee died peacefully dur- ing the night, but in happiness that his boyhood's sweetheart bore his name.
 The body was taken to the Shechan home in River street, where the two sisters of the dead man live. Mrs Sheehan, the young widow, is thero with the family awaiting the funeral.
