White-Brinckerhoff Wedding.
.+s%e+s*a*s+e OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES +s*.-

her spouse, in the tedious task of seek
ing cure for TIE dread plague OF lep-
rosy y martyr 20 the poor crea ture!
| slowly dying OF the now incurable dis,
/ ease, she will forsake wealth, society
| and all that is sweet IN life.
i Romantic was the meeting of the two
last Christmas week in Washington a
society acquaintance soon ripeped into
| love-
DR.. Brinckerhoff said he was going
| to Hawaii, and Miss White said she
had been there once and wanted to go
again. She followed him later to the
island.
Miss White went to the beautiful
home of her sister. Mrs. James B. Cas-
tie, in the residential section of Homo
lulu, where she met DR., Brinckerhoff
again. Soon wealth decided to marry
fame. If present, plans materialize
loves outcome will be witnessed the
first week in September.
American society folk at Honolulu at
first shrank from the courageous young
Harvard professor. Anyone who would
associate with Iepers detested by all
was held intolerable.
Miss White did not adhere to the
familiar adage, Tell me with whom
you associate and I'll tell you what you
are" He was not rich, but he bore
a fine reputation from the learned men
formerly his companions.
When the wedding day was set she
bade good-by to her friends, at whose
teas she had spent afternoons. She
will go to tfe abhorred island, to the
dangerous sanatoriun. and labor at the
side of her beloved.
In Winchendon in the days of her
youth she was the belle of the town.
All the girls held it an honor to be
allowed to "chum around with her.
Not one of her childish wants was left
unsatiated.
Her father was a multi-millionaire,
famed throughout New England as a
leading manufacturer, and While he
was alive treated her as a little queen.
Her mother, of the noted family of
which john D. Long is a member, also
gave her the best of care.
The palatial mansion al which she
resided was known as ''Marchmont."
1t is on the summit of a gradual peak
entirely surrounded by primeval pine
grove. The estate comprises what is
known as Winchendon Springs, so
named for its healthful mineral springs.
when her brother-in-1aw, James B.
Castle. was a federal representative
abroad Miss White toured Europe
from frigid northern; Russia to torrid
Sicily. Later she spent year in
where she was entertain
ed by the wives of many government
officials.
How after enjoying such social hon
or, accustomed to have her every want |
supplied, pretty Miss White can adapt |
her life to mingling with the most de-
graded of the earth's population is |
more than Winchendon people can I'M
1erstand.
When married. DR.. and Mrs. Brinck-
erhoff will dwell at the handsome Cas-
tie residence.
The Castles too, have attained fame.
While the father. James B., was win
hing commentator for his exceptional
diplomatic prowess the son was twirl-
ing to victory to the applause of thou
sands of Harvards grads and under
grads on Soldiers Field, winning fame
