-- The jury in the case of Mr. Robert C. Geddes who was found dead on the centre pier of the Danbury and Norwalk railroad bridge at the latter place Sunday morning, returned a verdict that he came to his death by falling through the bridge, the cause of the fall being unknown. Mr. Geddes was employed in the Union factory and lived just above the bridge. It is thought he may have been upon the bridge when the train came along and in stepping aside to avoid it missed his footing and fell. There was a mark upon his forehead as though he might have struck a timber in the fall.

Marriage of Lady Elizabeth Levenson Gower and the Marquis of Lorn

The marriage of Lady Elizabeth Georgiana Leveson Gower,eldest daughter of his grace the Duke of Sutherland, with George John Marquis of Lorn, only son of the Duke of Argyll, was celebrated at Trentham on Wednesday, in the presence of a select circle of the distinguished friends of both noble families.

His grace the venerable Archibishop of York officiated.

At half-past eleven o'clock the company assembled in the library drawing-room and formed in procession, from whence, at a quarter to twelve, they moved through the principal of apartments across the end of the conservatory into the corridor, taking the circuit of the courtyard, and entering the church through the private entrance.

The Duke of Sutherland walked first, leading the bride, who looked remarkably well, and was succeeded by the Marquis of Lorn and the Duchess of Sutherland. Then came the bridesmaids, two and two, in order given below: -

Lady Caroline Leveson Gower, Lady Constance Leveson Gower
Miss Edith Campbell, Miss Lascelles
Hon. Miss Ellis, Hon. Miss Caroline Ellis
Lord and Lady Blantyre succeeded the bridesmaids, and were followed by Lord Morpeth and Lady Arthur Lennox, other guests walking in pairs, in succession.

This very interesting portion of the ceremony was witnessed by many hundred persons.

The bride was attired in a dress and tunic of manificent Guipure lace, over white satin, festooned with bouquets of roses, myrtles, and orange blossoms. Her ladyship's head-dress consisted of a wreath of white roses, and a veil of the richest description of Guipure lace completed the costume, which was extremely chaste and beautiful. Her ladyship carried a bonquet of orange flowers in her left hand.

All the bridesmaids were similarly attired in white, carrying bouquets ofwhite roses and jessamine, and each wearing as a distinctive badge, a water lilly on the left breast. Each of the ladies wore a superb broach, presented by the noble bridegroom, and representing an ancient galley, the principal fcature in his lordship's arms. These brooches were executed in gold, studded with turquoise, and exquisitely enamelled.

Upon entering the church a scene of sigular interest was presented. The massive pillars supporting the roof on either side were entwined with wreaths osf the Scotch heather and blue bell, which were continued in festoons to the alter, over the centre of which the ornaments of both aisles met and closed in an appropriate design. Every nook within the edifice was occupied, an dnearly the whole of those present were decked out in bridal attire.

The venerable archbishop was assisted in the ceremony by the following clergyman: - The Rev. E. J. Edwards, the incumbent of Trentham; the Rev. H.G. Bunsen, the duke's private chaplain, and the Rev. J. H. Hutchison, the vicar of Burton.

His Grace performed the service in a most impressive manner, and the ceremony was commenced and concluded without an incident to mar its solemn effect.

The Duchess of Sutherland, Lord Morpeth, and indeed a great majority of those present in the church, were much affected during portions of the service, and on the return of the party from the altar, when the children performed their very pleasing duty of stewing the bridal path with flowers, the scene was extremely affecting.

The procession returned throug the corridor to the drawing-rooms, and subewquently the company assembled in the banqueting room, where a splendid dejeuner had been prepared.

After the banquet the marchioness joined the company in the grand saloon where she received the congratulations of her noble relatives. At half-past two o'clock one of the duke's splendid equipages, with postillions in state liveries, drove up to the grand entrance, and the happy pair, having first taken leave of the company, entered their carriage and drove off in the direction of Eccleshall, ien route for Lilleshall, the Duke of Sutherland's beautiful seat in the adjoining county of Salop.

Janet Kidd, socialite and 'Beaverbrook Girl'

London (AP) - Janet Kidd, socialite daughter of the first Lord Beaverbrook, the Canadian-born newspaper magnate and politician, has died at the age of 80, her family reported Tuesday.

Mrs. Kidd died Friday at her home in the village of Ewhurst 25 miles southwest of London. No cause of death was given.

In 1987, she published "The Beaverbrook Girl," a lively volume of memoirs about her active and adventurous life,which included horse breeding and flying helicopters.

She was born in Halifax, Nova Scotia, to Max Aitken and his first wife, Gladys Drury.

In 1910, her multimillionaire father brought the family to live in England, where he became a Conservative Party legislator and in 1916 bought the Daily Express, turning it into a major national newspaper.

He was made a peer with the title of Lord Beaverbrook in 1917. In World War II he served as ministerof aircraft production and later minister of supply.

Janet Kidd grew up surrounded by celebrities, including writer Rudyard Kipling and politician Lloyd George.

She met her first husband, Ian Campbell, a compulsive gambler and heir to a dukedom, in the casino at the fashionable French resort of Le Touquet. Married in 1927, they were divorced in 1934.
