He was sitting in his library when the heart trouble seized him and his death occurred before help could be obtained.
 Mrs. Thayer, who was with him, summoned his brother, Judge John M. Thayer, but MT. Thayer's death had occurred before Judge Thayer reached by Judge Thayer, however, in the hope that medical service might be of help.
 The news of the death of ex-Mayor Thayer became generally known dur ing the evening, coming as sudden shock to all as they realized the loss to the community of one who had long been one of it's most prominent and highly esteemed citizens.
 MT. Thayer was born in Thompson on Nov. 6. 1852. the youngest of the B. Thayer. His ancestry ran back to Thomas Thayer of Thornbury, Eng land, who came to America before 1889, settling in Braintree, Mass. where he had grant of land of 76 acres.

BRIDGEPORT SUICIDE .- WAS JOHN MINER.
Was at First Reported to Be Mickey
 Miner, His Brother.

The man who committed suicide at Bridgeport last Wednesday proves not to have been Mickey Miner of Groton, but his brother, who lived on a farm in Ledyard.
 Mickey Miner went to Bridgeport on Sunday where he gave directions that his brothers body be buried there. About $160 was found on the dead mans person at the time of the shoot ing and this is sufficient to cover burial expenses.
 The discovery of the mistaken iden- tity in connection with the suicide is curious, but natural Just after Miner was discovered in the room at the Ho- tel Astor which he had occupied with a woman by the name of Nellie Irv- ing, formerly of New London, he was heard to utter repeatedly the name Mike Miner. His continual speaking of the name when he was questioned in an endeavor to learn his name, naturally led to the belief that he was giving his own name. It is evident that the man was giving the name of his brother, probably with the inten- tion of wishing to have him notified. The name of the man after his death from the bullet wound was sent out as Mike Miner of Groton, and the mistake was not discovered until Sat urday night.
