eighty-seven, wealthy manufactures,
last week married his first cousin,
Miss Susan Thorn Knapp, who is more
than twenty-fiv years younger than
the bridegroom. The ceremony was
performed at the bedside of the aged
man.
Friday morning in the Thorn homo.
all hope for Mr.. Thorn's recovery
from double-pneumonia had been
given up by doctors. Mr.. Thorn had
regained consciousness. but no no
ticeable strength.
A consultation was held by members
of the family about the bedside and
it was decided to accord the dying
man the realization he had hoped for
throughout his life. The Rev. Gus
tave Arnold Christensen, of the ChuI ch
of the Holy Rood, a lifelong friend
OF Mr.. Thorn was called, and the
union made.
Expect Recovery.
Yesterday DR.. Austin W. Hollis, his
family physician said that the past
few days have brought marked i'm
provement and that a complete re-
covery is expected. DR.. Hollis con-
tinued:
'I can't imagine the joy that will
result when Mr.. Thorn does recover.
Mrs. Thorn seemed to be peculiarly
happy Immediately after the mar
riage, though her husband was fac
ing death. She was wonderful"
Intensely active until the cold con-
tracted on election day put him in a
sick bed, Mr.. Thorn's many years
have been filled with busy enterprises.
He was born in the mill city of CO.

the Columbia Law School in 1852, he
established the knitting factories
known as the Harmony Mills.
Was Mayor of Cohoes.
Since their founding he is said to
have kept in direct management of

spent much of his time in New York.
He was twice mayor OF Cohoes and
has always retained a keen interest
in politics
Mrs. Thorn is an attractive, gray
haired woman. She is the daughter
of the late DR.. Albert Knapp, a New
York physician. Previous to his per-
manent residence here the manufac-
turer spent much of his time when
In the city at the Knapp home.
The friendship of the couple is said
by friends to extend over a period of
forty years. When asked why Mr..
Thorn had not contemplated marriage
before a friend replied:
NO one has been able to answer
that, although in my opinion Mr..
Thorn had reached that chronic stage
in bachelorhood where a man thinks
II Is impossible. I know he wanted
to marry Miss Knapp. but he Just
didn't seem able to say it,"
