once on winters day, when sleighing was

Soon after her return 10 Alabama, Blount,
the present husband met her and was cap

eloped. and was married TO Blount.
Lola Montez has remarked that run away

bring into public notoriety the past and

told. Col. Blount alleges that his wife is

but the only cause he had for complaint
was that the engagement had been broken
up. Notwithstanding the disagreement the
young people kept up u correspondence, and
often met away from the house and they
promised to marry when the proper time
arrived. Two months ago. it is alleged
that the parents forced Louisa to agree to
marry u Mr.. Muller. On hearing this, MIR
Fritz found II proper 10 discontinue his for.
