Cornwell. former commander OF the
Connecticut naval militia. II Ebenzer
Hill, IT.. who succeeded Mr.. Cornwell as
commander. made a wager three
months ago. shortly after Mr.. Hills
| wife had divorced him. Mr.. Hill said:
Frank. you are a confirmed bachelor.
| and it's a safe bet that I'll be married

It's a safe bet you won laughed
Cornwell, who lives in New Haven and
has long been considered one of the
most eligible bachelors in that part OF
the state. "In beat you out and cover

and l have. just been put on exhibition
in the showcase"
So the bet was made and a day or so
later Mr.. Cornweil went to visit at the
home of Mrs. Martha Beach at Wood
mont, an exclusive residential suburb Of
New Haven. Mrs. Beach had just di-
vorced Edward w. Beach, president of

Cornwell's one thought was the bet

believed with the doctors that death
was only Il matter of a few hours:
"Eb's won the bet. but I'm no welch-
er. I'll have him paid"
Gradually the fever subsidized and q
week ago he smiled as he remarked:
"Eb'll win the bet yet. must over
come a big handicap"
The handicap was overcome Saturday
evening. The Rev. Joseph Anderson. of
WoodmOnt, a member Of the Yale cor
poration, casually strolled into Mrs.
Beach's home. Mrs. Yates was there to
greet him.; so were the two nurses
| so was Mrs. Beach.

So he vas allowed to get from bed long

added. Nov I must hurry and get back
