Couple Once Divorced
 Remarry In Beacon Falls

Bedding, Feb 13.-A marriage re- gently solemnized at Beacon Falls, Litchfield county, was the second in which the contracting parties had the third for both as each had taken new matrimonial partners after the divorce which terminated the original union. The groom was George H. the bride Mrs. Harriet Bassett of Derby.
 They were first married something over thirty years ago, the maiden had one child, son, who is still liv- ing. About five years after the mar riage Mrs. Read obtained divorce and returned to the home of her par ents in Derby, where she remained until she again ventured into matri- mony, this time with a man named Bassett. Her first husband retained his state of restored singleness until about six years ago when he took un- to himself a second wife.
 This partner he also lost by reason of a decree of divorce. About two years ago his first wife lost her hus- band by death and hence both were free to wed when by the merest chance they again met last fall. So evident from the first were the indI. cations of revival of the old flame that their acquaintances quickly pre- dicted the wedding which came to pass on Saturday, the 3rd.
 During the greater part of the twenty-five years of their separation Read had lived in Springfield, Mass, tions, usually holding good positions. Within the last two or three years the parents of his original and present wife died, leaving her property to the amount of about $16.OO0. Part of farm at Seymour, which is now being conducted by her son.

Huntington School Supply Of Water
 Frozen Up Tight

The Huntington school is without it's water supply today. The school is supplied by a line from which only a small quantity of water is drawn, and in the extreme cold the main, which was thought to have been laid to sufficient depth to avoid the frost, became choked up.
 The Hydraulic company has rarely experienced so many reports of the freeing up of water pipes as the pro- tracted cold spell has brought. The mishap of H. H. Jackson, the burst ing of a pipe on the floor above his store through which a loss of many hundreds of dollars was occasioned, is the most serious brought to light. Workmen are trying; to thaw out the afternoon.

Or that the visit was for my especial benefit. I could not clear myself of engagements nor reach MT. WcNamara and I didn't go.
