Edward Horace Cleveland at Christ Church in the borough of Manhattan on 15 Apr 1903. She was the daughter of Henry Bryan Hall and Emma Ida Lord and had not been previously married. It is possible that Walter’s first wife Mary C. Fay died by suicide as her death certificate says death by “poisoning by CO.” She was found dead at her home, 205 W. 142nd St., NYC on 26 September 1902. Walter’s death certificate says that he was in the restaurant business at the time of his death.

     Walter B. and his partner, Joseph H. Stoppani, were New York City stock brokers and members of the Stock Exchange. In early 1914 they were arrested on a charge of grand larceny over missing stock valued at $300,000. They filed bankruptcy and were expelled from the Exchange. Their problems were discussed often in the New York Times during the years 1914 to 1916 but fell out of the news without any final disposition of the case being reported. It is likely that his death ended the investigation. Walter and his partner Stoppani also had offices in Syracuse, NY, as they appear in the Syracuse City Directories of 1905 through 1909. In 1905 their offices were at 210 Montgomery St and later at 4 Larned Bldg. These directories say that his home was in NYC.

In his grandmothers Will he is mentioned as the son of Charles; and left $200, but a codicil dated 8 July 1891 disowns him and says that he shall receive no part of her estate. The Paris Town Clerk furnished his birth and death dates. It seems somewhat confusing that his mothers and his wife’s names are the reversal of each other.
