Whom did Miss Spider marry?

I believed she maried the mayor. 

She married the head of the fire department. Because her family was burned and felt safe marrying him.

she when reached newyork she married the head of the fire department.just because her own famikly was gone as told in the novel that they were burned and so because she thought that it was safe marrying him:the head of fire department
