MRS. F. STEWART STRANAHAN.
Expired After Few Hours Illness
From Cerebral HemOrrhage.

st. Adams, Dec. 17.-Mrs. Miranda
(Brainerd) Stranahan, widow of
Lieut.-Gov F. Stewart Stranahan.
died at the home of the Rev. and
Mrs. w. Parkyn Jackson, of Brown
avenue, this morning about 1880
O'Clock after an illness of only a few
hours of cerebral hemorrhage Mrs.
Stranahan had apparently been in
her usual health and only yesterday
was making final arrangements for
leaving the city soon after Christmas
to pass the remainder of the winter
in Italy. The funeral arrangements
have not yet been made.
Mrs. Stranahan was born in st.
Adams December ~, 1S41, and was
therefore, 6S years old last Sunday
She was the daughter of Lawrence
and Fidelia (Gadcomb) Brainerd, her
father having been at one time Unit
ed States Senator serving out an IN
expired term of a deceased member
of the Senate. She is the last mem
Der of her family.
She is survived by one son, Col &.
Farrand Stewart Stranahan, o.
Providence, R. l., and one grandson
Farrand Stewart Stranahan, a son OF
Colonel Stranahan Her husband to
whom she was married August 20
1852 died July ~ 1904
Mrs. Stranahan was especially in
terested in charitable, musical and
patriotic affairs and was a leader in
all these branches not only in this
city but her ability was recognized
throughout the State and she was
many times honored with offices and
leading parts in all organizations
along these lines of activity. She had
been a member of the Congregational
church since she was a young girl
and from the time of her joining that
denomination up to the time of her
! death she was active in every branch
of the church work.
Mrs. Stranahan was an officer and
at one time regent of the Vermont
Society, Daughters of the American
Revolution, and was one of the or
ganizers of the local Bellevue Chap
ter. d. A. r. At the time of hci
death she held the office of presi-

to investigate, and afted few minutes
succeeded in dislodging the animal
which proved to be a mink. The bird
had clutched the animal just forward
of the shoulders with one set of talons
while the other set grasped the back
of the animals head thus avoiding
the animals teeth. 1t had then torn
a hole in the mink's throat, sufficient
to kill the animal but not seriously
damaging the pelt. AS Mr.. Ray is a
dealer in raw furs, and was Mt the
time on fur-buying trip, and prime
mink pelt is worth from 81 to $40,
this present from the bird was quite
a substantial one. One of the peculiar
things about the occurrence is the
fact that the mink and weasel are
generally more than match for the
hawk, and usually avoided by them.
Mr.. Ray says he did not recognize the
variety of hawk making the capture,
but is sure that it is one not common
in these parts. 1t was a medi I'm sized
bird with peculiar markings of black
and white that rendered it particu-
larly noticeable.

DENIES ALLEGATIONS.
Answer to Bill Filed b} Brattlebore
Concern VIII Admit Nothing.

Brattleboro, Dec. 17.-An answer
was filed today with the county clerk
to the proceedings brought on Oct.
ID in the Courts of Chancery by the
Hooker, Corser & Mitchell Company,
one of Brattleboro's largest manufac-
turing concerns and of which Will
liam H. Proctor is president, against
James F. Hooker William H. Corser
and Chas. d. Whitaker, former menu
bers of the company, which furnishes
additional information and keener
interest to the already famous litiga-
ton between these parties. The an
swer covers in minute detail the bill
filed October ID by the company
through its attorneys. At that time
the property of the defendants was
attached for $4,000 on a writ of Sc
questration.
In February of this year Mr.. Proc
tor brought bill of chancery against
the defendants and secured an it,
junction restraining them from in
terfering with him in the conduct of
the business of the overall company
in which they were all directors. He
alleges that they had undertaken to
defraud him and to usurp his rights
and privileges as a director of tho
company. The defendants filed an
answer to the bill in which they
claimed that they had tried to con-
serve the interests of everyone con-
nected with the firm, and stated that
Mr.. Proctor had been a detriment to
the firm through unbusinesslike con-
duct
On May 26, supplemental bill was
filed by Mr.. Proctor in which he
charged that the defendants had con-
spired to wrong him and make in
effectual the relief which he had
sought in his original bill by start
ing a factory in Schenectady n. Y.
to make the same kind of goods, and
that they were planning to hire
away the Brattleboro employees of
the Hooker, Corser & Mitchell Over
all Company to aid them in their bus.
mess. An injunction was issued
preventing the defendants from car
rying out their alleged plans, and at
a hearing held May % in Rutland an
agreement was made giving Mr..
Proctor the right to either pur-
chase the stock held in the company
by the defendants or to dispose OF
his own, stipulated price in either
case being made at that time. Mr..
Proctor elected to buy the stock, the
sale being closed on June IA, when
Mr.. Proctor paid over the price Of
the defendants share in cash.
The bill made many assertions AZ
denied in the answer filed today,
that they were endeavoring to hire
away employees and statesmen, that
they had converted the knowledge of
the Brattelboro company and were
using it in their new business, that
they had distracted documents from
the files of the Hooker, Corser IL
Mitchell Company, and that they had
adopted patent buckle held by the
Brattleboro corporation and several
minor allegations.

The Rutland Gun club, which has
for it's object game preservation and
propagation as well as the promotion
of trap shooting, is to ask the State,
through H. G. Thomas of Stowe, State
fish and game commissioner, to al
low the club money from the hunt
ing license fund to try the expert
ment of stocking Rutland county CO.
verts with Hungarian cartridges.
They argue that as it is hunters who
pay the license fees they should ben
eft by the fund raised thereby. Rut-
land sportsmen have been in commun-
ication with persons who have liber-
ated Hungarian cartridges in this
country and they believe the bird the
most desirable of any foreign game
which could be secured. The bird is
between the size of the native quail
and ruffed grouse and is said to in
habit the same kind of woods as the
partridge. The local gunners be-
lieve that it would be better to eX-
pertinent with the birds about Rut-
land than farther north in the State
where there is more snow.
