Walsh Dead.
‘ tRobert Walsh, who made an' attempt
to end his life at ' Compo a week ago
’Stinday, died at the hospital Monday
,as a result of his act.
' Death was pro-
duced by cerebro-spmal meningitis.
The case of Walsh is a most peculiar
one. and if possible the Bridgeport
hospital “staff will hold an autopsy to
learn‘ the nature of the cause of death.
Walsh had been drinking heavily of
late, and became despondent and dis-
couraged. On Sunday, June 4, he de-
termined'to end his life, and securing
a-revolver he placed the barrel at his
lips and shot up through the roof of
his mouth. He was removed to the ‘
Bridgeport hospital and an unsuccess- _ ,
ful attempt was made to locate the ball. '
A day after his arrival a piece of the
flattened bullet was discharged from
his nostrils and the physicians in charge
were unable to determine whether or
not the remainder of the bullet was in
his head. During the first two days at
the hospital Walsh showed no seri-
ous effects from the bullet but on
Wednesday last a change was noticed.
His brain seemed to be disturbed and
at night he would attempt to leave his
bed at frequent intervals. He talked
rationally but it was easily learned that
his brain was affected.
On Friday, his illness assumed a crit-.
ical nature and he steadily grew worse
until death ended his sufferings. He
, was 48 years old and leaves a family.
‘v
- Di300vered Another Husband.
Sometime in 1890 Mrs. Emily P. G04
van of Hartford stepped out the second-
story'window of her grocery store on
the corner of Sheldon and South Pros--
pects streets and received injuries from
which she died a year later. Mrs.Govan
'wasa woman of some property . and
owned a grocery business, amounting
to about 39,000. _Mr. Govan continued
the business for about a year and then
hedied. The»couple left one son,'14
' years old, and it was supposed that of
course he would inherit the property,
' Mrs. Govan leaving no will. When the
estate came to be probated,however, an
unexpected claim was put in on behalf
of a daughter by a former husband, the
existence of whom was unknown before.
It now appears that Mrs. Govan had
been married before in England when
she was only 15 years old, to a man
named William Halnorth, although her
second husband.Mr. Govan,never knew
of this early episode. The question is,
can this daughter by a former husband,
mother’s estate ? Her attorney believes
that under the Connecticut statutes she
can get one half of the estate. The at-
torney- for. the boy will endeavor to
have his client get the whole estate.
Steps are now being taken to have the
affair cleared up.

Obituary.
MISS MARY E. CHURCH.
. There diedla st Manday in the house
on the Westport road. in which she was
born, one of N orwalk’s oldest residents,
and a‘member of one of its ancient fa-
milies. Since 1811, Miss Mary Church
has known im‘ one home. This home
was planted by her grandfather, who
built the house first occupied by him-
self; then ’by his son, and in later years
by his grand-daughter, now deceased.
The house is a Norwalk landmark, ,and,
considering its age, is a well-preserved
structure. In' the early morning hours
of July 11, 1773, some of King George’s
men entered its kitchen, and began to'
light and to scatter their faggots loosely
around. “ Stay,” said the womanly
wife of the owner, the first Ebenezer
Church, and took her broom and- swept
the faggots into one pile. Just at this
moment, Tryon’s officers, who were
a. short distance in the rear ofthe in-
cendiaries, hove in sight at the tOp of
the hill to thewest of the house, and‘at
the instigation of Mrs. Church, to whom
they were under obligations, called ‘the, _
men 011'. The building was saved, and
it‘to-day stands, with slight alteration,
just at it stood on that memorable _
morning; The deceased has ”taken
great comfort ’ in her home. The fa-
mily history‘and traditions have been
well preserved by her, and
predate tell the same outside her own
