DRAKE THE BRIDEGROOM. A Widower, With Two Children tn tho Yaphank Home, Engaged by the Wealthy Widow as Plowman and Farm Hand Later Promoted to the Post of Coachman and Now the Master of a Fine Estate on Huntington Bay. (Special to the Eagle.) Hunifclcigton, L. Otftober 17 Another scene In the dramatic ilfo atorz of a brilliant and sensational woman occurred yesterday afternoon In the quiet little office of Justice George C. Hendrlctescm, when Mrs.

Janet Finley Little became the wife of George N. Drake, who had for over two years held the position of far mer, foreman and coachman on the picturesque Little estate at Huntiii'gton harbor. The event was n9umnmted in tihe characteristic off hand stylo of the self reliant bride. Mrs. Little, who Is a largo woman of vdff commanding physique, elaborately and fashionably alttlred and adorned with valuable Jewels, entered the private office of Justice Hendrick son at 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon, accompanied' by her prospective husband, and, Informing the Justice of their errand, requested htm to procure a couple of witnesses; anyone ho happened to meet would do.

Bank Cashier Douglass Conklln was passing as the Justice emerged from Mb doorway on the errand and ho stepped to the office of the Suffolk Bulletin and summoned Camlllus P. Rogers, who serves In the double capacity of editor of that Journal and postmaster Huntington, to accompany him as witness. As they entered, the room they were greeted by the prospective bulde with her usi sangfroid in tne remark: "You have come to see tho laist of Mrs. Lltt'. The necessary papers were all ready, the brief ceremony was performed which made one coupie man anu wife, the witnesses affixed their signatures and Mrs.

Janet Plnloy Welr Llttle Drako, accompanied by her husband, entered tho carriage behind her handsome sorrel team and drove to her pretty home to spand thalr honeymoon by the bright, sun kissed waves of Huntington harbor. Hot choice of being married by the Justice, the selection of Friday as a wedding day, and of her coachman as a bridegroom were In perfect keeping with the other events In the varied life of iMrs. Little, as she was so woll known In the place. Attention and notoriety were first prominently attached to her by tho sensational eventa connected with Mr. Little's death, which occurred on November 11, 1893, at the home of his nephew, M.

L. Little, In Now York city. Mr. Little first became a resident of this place some fifteen or eighteen years ago, when ho bought from his brother the beautifully located property on the west side of Huntington harbor, known as Oonklln's point. He was a genial, wholesouled man, and read ily gathered a number of warm friends about the place.

Mr. and Mrs. Little entered quite prominently Into society, entertained largely, and Mrs. Little, who was accomplished and quite a vocalist, frequently appeared in private and church concerts. Mr.

Little was engaged In business In New York city, as a broker In the oil exchange and afterward In the consolidated oil and produce exchange. He traveled to and from business dally and was believed to be a wealthy man. He was a master mason, a member of Sagamore council, F. and A. M.

of New York City, and was highly esteemed by his brother masons throughout this section of the country. He was a veteran of the war, having served with distinction as. captain In an Ohio regiment. He was wounded during the war and tho bullet was never extracted. This was the cause of considerable trouble to him for some years, but he finally recovered and enjoyed excellent health until the winter previous to his death, when he was attacked with nervous prostration.

During tho year of Illness pending his death, his physician advised subcutaneous Injections of morphine to relieve the acute jaln which he suffered at times. Ho finJSrbe came so habituated to the use of the drug that It 'was Impossible to keep it from him. About two weeks previous to his death he took a notion to go to New York to visit his nephew and his friends thought that this 'ould break him away from his old associations and he might be cured of the morphine habit. He, however, used the drug more freely than ever and dnrlng one of the periods when he was under Its Influence his vital powers gave out and he never recovered. The funeral services were held at the Ma sonic temple, New York city.

At their conclusion M. L. Little, the nephew, stated he wished the body taken to Ohio, where some of the relatives reside. Mrs. Little expressed her willingness, although It was her wish that he might be buried In Huntington.

However, the nephew made a demand for an amount of money, cash In hand, to be paid him for tho Ohio trip, which largely exceeded any available cash belonging to the estate. She was compelled to decide Immediately, so tho plans were changed and the undertaker directed to proceed to Huntington. The nephew was also Informed he had been loft nothing by Mr. Little's will, yet he Insisted that Mrs. Little should bind herself to pay him a certain sum of money and, exasperated by her refusal, ho charged her with poisoning her husband.

A permit In due form had however, been procured and the undertaker after many delays and police interferences succeeded In getting the body, to Long Island City. The remains were finally brought to Huntington and after being left In the receiving vault over night were Interred the following days under tWausplces of the local masonic lodge. These sensational events brought to light the fact that both Mr. and Mrs. Little had been married previous to their marriage to each other, the former to a Miss Loeper and tho latter to Frederick Weir, a wealthy manufacturer of Cincinnati.

The funeral was followed by a law suit, brought by the nephew and Mr. Little's former wife to break the will, by which the deceased loft all his property to Mrs. Little and appointed her executrix. They tried to lay claim to property In Ohio as woll as the estate in Huntington, but it was found that very little property was left by the deceased? and that the place at the harbor had long since been purchased by Mr. Finley, Mrs.

Little father. The summer following Mr. Little's death Mrs. Little engaged as handy man about the place George N. Drake, whoso wife had recently died.

He was a very poor, but worthy countryman, quite unaccustomed to the ways of high society in which Mrs. Little had appeared to such brilliant advantage Not a small part of his occupation was to take his employer for long and frequent drives about the invigorating country, and ero long It was whispered that a bond of mutual sympathy was strengthening and doeponlng between them. The culmination was reached yesterday when Mrs. Little bocame Mrs. Drake, and incidentally the step mother of two young children who are at present com fortably housed in the children's home at Yaphank.
