Timothy c. Shea. 20, died about 12.15
o clock Tuesday morning at the home of
his son, p. l.. Shea, on Myrtle street
after an Illness of eleven weeks with
heart and stomach trouble. He was born
In County Cork. Ireland, in March, 1895
and was one Of a large family. When he
was is years old he came to America
locating in Brattleboro, and spent the
rest of his life in this town. He first
was engaged as a wool dyer in the old
wooden mill which stood where the
Fletcher mill now stands. When the
wooden mill was destroyed by fire Mr.
Shea began work for S. NJ Waite as gas
maker and was employed by him many
years. Afterwards he was employed nv
the Estey Organ company. Soon after
coming to this country SO years ago he
married Margaret Kelley, who died SO
years ago few years later he married

Forty Gases Of Measles.

Measles are epidemic i'm Brattleboro. A
week ago there We're three cases under
quarantine restrictions Now the number
so confined is about 40, and Health Off
Ger Tucker says new cases are cropping
out every day. The majority of cases
thus far are among the pupils of the
parochial school. DR. Tucker is not posi-
tive as to where the first patient became
exposed, but he thinks the disease came
from Townshend where there are nearly
as many cases as there are in Brattle-
boro. A few weeks ago the Leland &
Gray seminary basket ball team of Town
shend played the Brattleboro academy
team In West Brattleboro, and soon after
wards West Brattleboro had case of
measles, the patient being one who min
gled with the basket ball party from
Townshend. In due time other cases APP
peared, and nine-tenths of those at pres
ent have developed during the past week.
The fact that the disease is easily com
municable during its earliest stages
makes 1t very difficult to prevent It from
spreading. Mrs. A L. Gale and her
daughter, Mrs Frank Martin, and the
little daughter of the latter, who live at
"a Elliot street are under quarantine with
diphtheria. The little girl first had the
disease and the mother and grandmother
have since been i'll with it, but all are
recovering.
