Special to ''The Jersey City News.'')
TRENTON, Oct 16, 1905.-Grocer
Frank G. Borden was Saturday locked
in the refrigerator in his store by his
wife. It was only when he succeeded
in breaking glass door of the refriger-
ator with cake of ice that the clerk
and some customers realized what had
happened.
Most surprised Of all, when the grocer
emerged so stiff and numb from cod
that he could scarcvely walk, was Mrs.
Borden. She hadn't the faintest desire
to put her husband on ice. But she
happened to notice that the refrigerator
door was ajar, and when she pushed it
shut it could not be opened from within.
Borden had stepped inside in search of
a roll of butter.

WHAT THE TRIALS OF ACTIVE
SERVICE COULD NOT DO TO
THOMAS HAMILTON THE LOSS
OF HIS DAUGHTER DID.

The little parlor of Patrick McHugh
in the small frame dwelling No. 23S Cole

Two black-draped caskets on catafal-
falques take up the biggest portion Of
the room. In one OF them lies the body
of Mrs. McHugh. In the other lies the
boly of her father, Thomas Hamilton,
Grand Army veteran, whose grief over
the death of his daughter broke his heart
according to the family physician.
For over ten years the old gentleman
had been an inmate of the Soldiers
Home in Kearny. He was off on fur

ter, when he died.
Mr.. Hamilton was seventy-seven years
old. He was man of discipline, borne
of army experience, ano had carried his
age well. He was soldier in the regu-
lar army when the Civil War broke out
in 1851. He served his term as f1euten-
ant and re-enlisted Arter the war was
over he retired to peaceful life and
for years was a faithful employe of the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company. But
prior to this he was given much employ
ment as an ex-soldier on Bedlow and
Governors Island.
Mr.. McHugh, his son-in-law, Is we'll
known and faithful employe of the Fa-
gan Iron Works Company. He suffers
keenly the loss of his wife, but the bur-
den of grief is augmented by the death of
her splendid old father, who dropped
dead after viewing the dead body Of his
daughter.
Another daughter survives both. She
is the wife of prominent man who Eves
in Wheeling, West Virginis..
