CLAIMS SECRET.
BRIDE s
BODY
Girls Parents Didn't Know
She Was Married Until
Husband Appears.
BY international News Service


ROME, Ca, March ga death
shattered marriage romance was
revealed here the other day when
George Bray. Of Detroit, appeared
in the home of Mr.. l.. A. Farr, Of
this city, and, although a stranger
to the family, requested the privi-
lege Of paying the. funeral ex.
penses OF Miss Catherine Farr,
seYenteen-year-old schoolgirl, who
died and was buried only twenty
four hours before.
1t was the first time the girls
parents had seen or heard OF Bray.
The young man claimed the right
of paying the funeral expenses on
the grounds that the pretty girl
was his wife. He explained that
they WERE married by local min.
lister on February 8 last, and that
Immediately following he had to
depart for Detroit. He said he re-
cetved news Of his wife's death
from q brother who knew Of his
wedding. He rushed to Rome, but
too late for the funeral. The
sweetheart that had become his
wife only few weeks before had
been carried to the grave without
his seeing her since the wedding.
Records in the ordinary's office
here substantiated Bray's state
ment. The young wife died with.
out revealing to her parents that
she had been married. Pneumonia
struck with terrible and swift eff.
feet in the romance.
1t was believed that the young
wife was rendered unconscious be-
fore she realized that her illness
was Of such serious nature, and
thus failed to disclose on her death
bed the secret marriage.
