Latter's Relatives.

surprised to get a letter from him yes
terday announcing his marriage to
Miss Lillian Stuart Floss, daughter of
Charles "A. Foss, a broker, of a Cathe-
dfal avenue Nutley.
Mr.. loves missive to his mother
contained but a single line on a sins
sic sheet of paper. 1t read:
Dear bia: I'm married to Lillian"
For a moment Mrs. Lowe couldn't re-
member who Lillian was. Their she
recalled Lillian Foss, of Nutley, who
had attended the junior german at
Trinity a year ago and had quite mo-
nopolized young loves time during
her visit to Hartford.
Mrs. Lowe found h letter exceed
ingly annoying, not because of the
news 1t contained, but because of its
lack Of more news.
eve never thought of objecting to
the match, you must understand" said
Mrs. Lowe. We've known all along
that Willis has beer tremendously fond
OF MISS ross ever. blilC6 lie met Hct az
the junior prom, but we hadn't n
expectation of anything like this. II
Willis had wanted to get married with
out splursing, 1t would have been all
right with us-we would have agreed
most willingly. n he had wanted a
quiet wedding. with Just a few more
frills. why. that would have been all
right, too"
Both she and Mr.. Lowe spent much
of today in trying to get into comr1u-
nication with someone in New York or
Nutley who could tell them more about
the wedding. The meagreness of their
initial information, however. made the
task d%iff1cult, n last night they had
nothing but the telephone tolls to show
for their effort.
1T don't even know whether Willis
took his Job or not" Mr.. owe COM
planned good natured1y.
Young Lowe has been taking a spe-
cial course at Trinity College in cleo
tricity and chemistry, n he was
greatly elated when he set out to put
Some of his theory in practise.
The young bride is the daughter OF
Charles A. Foss, a broker, of A Ca
thedral avenue. Nutley.
Miss Elaine Hoff, of Newark, was
the bridesmaid. and William H. Foss.

Right to Possession of
Youngsters.

In advices from Fincastle, Va, Hun
ter Breckenridge denies the story told
by his wife, Mrs. Grace V. Brecken-
ridge, TO a New York customs inspec-

not divulge her destination, but 1t is
believed she went to Fincastle. where
the family home was located before
domestic troubles separated the Brock

Behind the struggle for the posses

domestic infelicity. a little more than
a year ago, following a disagreement.
a separation for a period OF three years
was granted to the couple pursuant to
a divorce, the children being allotted
n to each parent.
Later the couple became reconciled

arose and Mrs. Breckenridge fled to
England, taking both children with her.
