SS Scillin was a 1,591 GRT cargo steamship that was built in Scotland in 1903, passed through a succession of owners of various nationalities and had a succession of different names. She was built as HM Pellatt but was successively called Memling, Nicole Le Borgne, Giuliana Pagan, and Scillin Secondo before becoming Scillin in 1937.

By the time of the Second World War the ship was in Italian ownership. In 1942, a Royal Navy submarine sank her in the Mediterranean Sea when she was transporting over 800 Allied prisoners of war (POWs) from North Africa to Italy, killing nearly all of them. The United Kingdom kept the cause of her sinking secret until 1996, more than 50 years after the event.

771 Last evening at the home of the bride in this city, Dr. Vincent Lasbury of Chicago, and Miss Alice Stoner were united in marriage.

The ceremony was arranged for 4:30 and was witnessed by relatives and a few friends. Promptly at the hour set the bridal couple entertained the parlor to the strains of Mendelsohns's march rendered by Mrs. Todd, and marching to the east side of the room stood before Rev. Todd who conducted the beautiful ceremony which made them man and wife.

The bride was elegantly attired in white organdie and the conventional veil of white illusion gave the crowning touch of lovliness to her beautiful toilet. After the wedding supper the guests escorted the bride and groom to the station where they took the evening train for Chicago, their future home.

The bride is well known here for her many good qualities of the heart and mind. She has a large circle of friends here and elsewhere that wish her joy and happiness.

The groom is a former Griggsville boy and is building quite the reputation for himself in his chosen profession. He is well worthy of the bride he has won.

They received a long list of handsome presents which will always remind them of the esteem and good wishes of their friends and call back in years to come the memory of a very pretty and impressive wedding.

772 Last Wednesday evening at the pleasant home of Mr. and Mrs. G. E. Pratt of this city occurred the marriage of their daughter Miss Minnie to Mr. M. M. Lasbury.

The friends were assembled early in the evening and at 8 o'clock Miss Grassley of Jacksonville, Ill. took her station at the piano and played Lohengrin's wedding march for the bridal party to enter and as the ceremony was taking place the tones of the wedding march ceased and the sweet notes of "O Promise Me" were played soft and low with a harmonizing effect. At the first notes of the wedding march all conversation ceased and all eyes were turned in the direction of the sitting room from the door of which proceeded four little tots, Master Ralph Farrand and Margaret Rodway and Master Baldwin Stead and Alice Parker dressed in pink and white suits looking like four little fairies heralding the coming of the bride and groom. The little escorts led the way through the back parlor into the front parlor and stepping to one side left of the bride and groom standing beneath a lovers knot of white satin trimmed with smilax, where Rev. N.L. Burton was waiting, who in clear tones and impressive manner, conducted the ceremony, using the beautiful ring service which joined together these two lives.

The decorations were pink and white throughout the house

After congratulations followed music consisted of vocal and instrumental solos. Excellent refreshments were served and at a late hour guests took their departure, leaving behind numerous useful and beautiful presents that are silent demonstrations of love and esteem of relatives, friends and associates of this worthy couple.

The bride was gowned in white taffeta silk with an overdress of white organdie and carried Bride's roses.

Mr. and Mrs. M.M. Lasbury are well known in this county, coming of noble families and worthy in themselves they need no further comment. They will reside in West Quincy avenue where they have a neat little cottage all fitted and will be "at home" to friends after April 1st.

Those attending from a distance were Miss Grassly, Mr. A.J. Pratt of Jacksonville, Miss Minnie Chamberlain of Pittsfield, Mr. Thomas Lasbury, Jr. of Alton.

775 Lawrence Shuler Bartlett was born in Madison County, N.Y. and went west to Chatauqua County with his brothers and father and several others who migrated. Among this number were Ira Bartlett and Daniel Lombard and his sister Margaret. After his marriage Shuler moved to Ellington and then to Waterboro on the Conewanga River, here for a number of years he owned the hotel.

In 1805, Dr. Thomas Kennedy of Meadville, built the first saw-mill, he bought three thousand acres of pine, cut the timber and floated the boards for rafting down the Conawanga, from Kennedy, Poland and Jamestown were piled ten to twenty feet high in 12 by 16 feet squares, each layer crossing the preceding layer. There was cherry and oak as well as some other varieties.

The mill purchased logs of the farmers by the hundred logs, 200 feet to the log was the estimated quantity. Randolph logs were floated down the Little Conawanga. Shuler Bartlett helped run these rafts from the Conawanga to St. Louis, returning to Chicago by foot and from there by boat, sailing vessels, to Buffalo or Detroit. Chicago was then but a fishing village. Later Shular moved to Michigan and operated in pine timber lands, manufactured shingles, had several farms and city properties and became "well to do".

791 LEWIS WALLACE PARKER, born in Griggsville, Pike County, Illinois the son of Edgar Spears PARKER and Sarah Emily SHINN; husband of Elizabeth LASBURY-

Our citizens were shocked this morning when the word passed around that Louis W. Parker, a life- long resident of Griggsville, had passed away. Mr. Parker has been in very poor health for more than a year, but he kept right on attending to business and getting around as usual, though it was known to many that he was far from a well man.

Walking was difficult for him, owing to its causing him shortness of breath. But was not a man to trouble others with his ill-health, rarely complaining although he was doubtless a great sufferer. Heart trouble was the cause. He was up town yesterday and around his usual stopping places, but we have heard the remark this morning that those who saw him remarked that getting around seemed more of a burden to him than usual. This morning he was not able to get around much and with little warning passed peacefully away at his home.

Mr. Parker has been engaged in the undertaking business a number of years, and few were as well or better fitted to this occupation than he. Kind, sympathetic, genteel, a gentleman in every sense of the word, his assistance in the home in the dark hours of sadness was a comfort and solice to those bereaved.

He is survived by his wife and two daughters, Mrs. Alice Harshman a Mrs. Lois Dunham, besides other relatives. He was a member of the A. F. & A. M., the I. O. O. F. and several of fraternal organizations.

At the time of our going to press we have not heard of funeral arrangements having been made. More complete mention of this honored citizen will be published in our next edition.
