what Came Of n Photograph.

A friend who knows whereof he speaks gives
US the particulars Of little bit Of romance, the
actors OF which are residents Of this county.
Less than two years since, there arrived In the
eastern part Of the county, from Switzerland, q
young man Of goodly appearance and fair eduoa-
tional requirements. So we'll pleased was he with
bis new home, that he soon reported to his friends
across the water the many advantages that an
honest, industrious immigrant found here. A
young lady In Swiizerland-sn entire stranger to
him-learnipg from q lady friend Of his situation
in America, wrote to him through friends that
she would like to visit his adopted home, and
along with the letter che forwarded her photo
graph.
Ho was pleased with the picture-the features
were fair to look upon, and the letter indicated
well educated mind so he sent her his photo.
graph Thus commenced a correspondenee that
In q few months attracted her across the ocean to
meet the man she had learned to love, though
had never seen. With friend she arrived the
last OF 0etobor at Tuscols, Douglass county,
where her unknown lover met her as she alighted
from the cars-ibquiring, like one Of DID, II she
were his katherine-lnd there ho first saw her
and first kissed her as his afianced. Within two
days the couple, thu, strangely and romantically
brought together, were married and on the way
back to the residence Of tho young mans en-
ployer in this county, where they have since
lived both doing acceptable service for one Of
our enterprising farmers, and both seemingly as
happy as II there had been Eve years court
ship C0rToMoH (W) Patriot.
