From Brooklyn, N. Y, comes the fol-
lowing story of q romance which had its
beginning years ago when "Mark" Tracy
and Clara Hemingway were schoolmates
in Gouldsboro:
Capt. Marcus n. Tracy and Mrs. Clara A.
Smith, of Brooklyn, were married by the
Rev. John L. Scudder in Jersey City on Tues
day. Both are Of seafaring parentage. The
families lived in Gouldsboro, Me-, and Capt.
Tracy's father was famous for his voyages
around the world. The late Capt. Henry
Hemingway, father Of the bride, was a neigh
bor and lifelong friend of Capt. Nathan s.
Tracy, the elder. The attachment OF the
present bride and bridegroom dates back to
their childhood days when they were chums.
Capt. Tracy said that he would go on his
honeymoon little later in the season. as he
10 very busy now. He is president Of the New
York, Buffalo and Great Lakes Transports

Mrs. Tracy was the widow Of the late Capt. A.
