friend of his present wife's husband
for fifteen years. During the campaign
that resulted in the election of Senator
White, Troy was secretary of the Dem
ocratic organization. Troy accompa-
MED the Whites to Washington, where
he acted as private secretary to the
Senator.
Senator White, who always felt a
warm friendship for the young man,
later helped him to secure a desirable
clerkship in the Senate. He held the
position for six years, during which
he studied the great men of the world
as seen on the stage at Washington.
Often he heard arguments in the Su-
preme Court of the United States.
Later he made a tour of Europe on a
Government mission. Returning to
San Francisco, Troy began the prac-
tice of law with success. He has also
been prominent in politics and the
conservatives wanted him instead of
Livernash for Congress. Troy is now
1 suing on behalf of his wife, though in
/ the name of Mrs. White, for the SEN
! ators share of the fees for recovering
the famous Pious fund of the Catholic
/ church.
TIME SOFTENS HER GRIEF.
/ 1t was generally thought that after
| Senator Whites death on February %,
1 1901, the widow would remain incon-
! solable. But time, the healer of all sor-
rows, has softened her griefs and per-
/ mitted her to take up again the respon-
| sibilities Of wifehood.
When his famous friend had been
called to the beyond Mr. Troy took
! charge of the Widows affairs. His as
/ siduity for her welfare and that of her
( three children Probably touched Mrs.
White. At any rate, she did not look
upon his attentions with coldness.
Naturally Mr.. Troy had to make sew
eral visits Of late to Los Angeles to talk
I with his charming client about the suit.
/ 1t is evident that on one of these visits
| he pressed his own suit in a court
where she was both judge and jury.
His arguments were successful and a
decree in his favor was declared at the
altar yesterday morning.
The wedding took place early yester-
/ day morning at st. Iosephs Catholic
Church. The Rev. Father Victor per-
formed the ceremony.
WEDDING is A SURPRISE.
Itwas entirely unannounced and only
a very few intimate friends of the
bride and groom were present. Imme-
/ diatcly after they were made one Mr..
| and Mrs. Troy left the church in a
carriage. Their destination is not
even known to their closest friends.
/ They intend to enjoy a brief honey
moon and then return to San Francisco,
where they will reside permanently.
The mother of the late Senator
White, with whom Mrs. Troy resided
for some time after her first husband s
death, declines absolutely to discuss the
affair. She admitted that the news
caused her some astonishment. Her
daughter r-in-law at no time confided in
her the fact that she contemplated a
second marriage.
The groom has two brothers in this
city-Daniel Troy, assistant cashier in
/ the Postoffice Department, and e. p.
E. Troy, an insurance man. They de-
cline to discuss their brothers mar
liagc. They did not know of it until
informed by telegram.
Mrs. Troy is the mother of three chill
dren by her first marriage-two boys
and a girl. The eldest, son, is about
] IL years of age.
