(AP)--Fire this week damaged a long-silent bell tower built as a monument to a Nova Scotia-born multi-mill- ionaire who at the age of 91 mar- ried his blonde 33-year-old nurse. The nonument was built by the nurse after John Samuel Lyle died two years after their marriage, leaving her $40,000,000 and cutting off the family of his first wife with a few thousand. By the time the nurse, Julia Gertrude Hannon, died at the age of 63, the fortune was almost gone. About all that remained to mark the union was the 50-foot Gothic bell tower, dedicated by 'Julia to her husband 40 years ago. Now it, too, has been weakened. The fire gutted its inside framework. Lyle, born in Nova Scotia in 1819, began his career at the age of 10 as an errand boy in New York. When he retired in 1867 at 48 he was the chief stockholder in the big Lord and Taylor depart- iment store. Early THEN CAML. THE NURSE He married Mary Kate New- combe, who died in 1908. Her sis-- ter came to care for Lyle, then hale and hearty at 90. But the sister was ailing, so a young nurse was employed to care for her. The nurse was Julia Gertrude Hannon, a blue-eyed blonde 58 years Lyle's junior. In September, 1910, much to the chagrin of the Newcombe family, John and Julia were married. 3 His estrangement from the New- combes after the marriage resulted in a new will, signed in July, 1912, three days before his death. The N.wcombe sister who- had tried to care for him got nothing, one Newcombe brother got $50,000, friends and charities got $500,000 and the rest--more than $40,000,000 --went to Julia. The Newcombes contested the will time and again, but Julia Same away with the fortune in- act. $30,000 MONUMENT Then she built the John Samuel Lyle monument. It was dedicated Fire Sears Monument Tycoon 40 years ago last Friday, cost $30,000 to build. a, Jmving The tower had nine bells, the largest weighing two tons, played every quarter hour. When the neighbors complained, Julia was obliged to silence the bells at night, and soon she stopped them ringing altogether. They finally were given $0 a Roman Catholic churé¢h in nearby Englewood, where they ring today. Julla met and married Alexander « Weynon Samuel, a handsome Brit- ish barrister, and moved to Eng- land. In 1925 the marriage went on the rocks and Julia returned to the United States. In 1934 she had a stroke which left her paralyzed. For most of her life after that she was bed- ridden. . She died in December, 1989, at the age of 62. Her assets then to- talled only $224,000. Her bell-tower memorial fell into disrepair, On Monday the 40- foot wooden staircase and 'most of the wooden framewood and trim were destroyed by fire. LONDON (Reuters) -- Jane's Fighting Ships, leading textbook on naval power, said today the United States' construction of two atomic- powered submarines marks the start of a new era of ship pro- pulsion. It said: "The application of nu- A-Power Ushers In New Sea Era clear energy will make sea power more formidable than ever before by giving every vessel so equipped the capacity for travelling vast distances without re-fueling." The new edition of Jane's, pub- lished today, said the development may produce changes "ac pro- found as the conversion from sail to mechanical power." Jane's said_Russia, with 370 sub- marines already in service, is building 100 more, all equipped with "snorkel" breathing devices enabling them to travel immense distances underwater. It said the Russian navy now has 520,000 offi- cers and men. The book said the Royal Navy has become dated "as regards the bigger ships." It said no battle- ships, aircraft carriers, cruisers or destroyers have been ordered since the Second World War. FOR FASTER DELIVERY Rated" panel.
