FORTUNE AFTER MARRYING 10 SUIT HIMSELF.
special dispatch TO the Philadelphia Times
from Baltimore, December IA, says: A sensation
has been created In society circles here by En-
nault Williams. the son OF George Hawkins
Williams president Of the Mary state senate,
marrying against his fathers wishes and then
TO- day filing motion in the circuit court to set
aside deed of trust by which he had conveyed
to his father all Of his property In consideration
of an annuity OF s2,oo0. In the motion filed
to-day the young man simply states that the
reasons for the transfer which existed Mt the
time Of signing the deed of trust do not now
exist and asks to be given control Of his own
property.
Early last spring 1t became known in high So
ciety here that Ernault Williams was engaged
to be married TO Miss Lille Hszelitt. OF this
city. Young Williams Is one OF the best known
society men In Baltimore, and the announce
ment attracted considerable attention. which
did not wane when Ii was rumored that the
elder Williams was bitterly opposed 10 the
match. The wedding dav fixed for June
lith last. Cards were issued, the brides trous-
seau was prepared. when a few days before the
marriage the groom set sail for Europe. aud So
ciety was lost In wonder. Later IL transprei
that previous TO the grooms departure he
had been compelled to make q deed OF trust
to his father of his entire fortune amounting
to $3.50 600. inherited direct from his grand
father. the late John s. Cuttings 1t is
said that at the time there was a stormy scene
between father and son, and that the latter was
persuaded into signing the deed by Senator
Williams, who had always exercised a strong
control over the young man. When the groom
elect. apparently much against his WILL went TO
New York before sailing for Liverpool. he wrote
long letter to his faneee. assuring her of his
continued love and desire to marry her aud
promising TO speedily return. During his alb
sence abroad he correspondent with her regu-
larry though his father. II ls said. knew nothing
of the love letters that were passing between
them.
About month ago Ernault returned home.
and twenty flour hours after his arrival the cards
were again issued for the wedding and the
happy couple were married about three weeks
ago In the presence of a fashionable assemblage
ar the residence of the brides parents on St
Paul street. The senator was not at the we'd
ding, and from what can be learned he is I'M
relentng and refuses to recognize his son or
transfer back to him his property. The trial Of
the case will be very interesting and is eagerly
looked forward to 10y the legal profession and
society folks.

his head. Then the feathers. taken from a big

white and puffy. in the starlight. like some
huge and grotesque- looking bird. He had to
put his clothes on over the whole mess. and then

that II covered the hair out of sight. and his
