some OF the most respectable ladies in I
Decatur have recently been receiving /
through the mails at this place letters of a |
very scandalouS character. The matter |
has been placed In the hands of competent 1
officials and they have about located the .
parties guilty o, the deyilish deed. When /
those who have sunk 50 low in the scale Of 1
morals shall be definitely spotted racket /

Last Sunday night there arrived on the /
weSt'bound train, from Kentucky, Marion /
Stewart, esq, Mrs. Ida Evans and Miss Ida |
Eyans, aged 10 years, a daughter of the |
lady. Marion Is quite youth, being about !
10 while Mrs, Ida Evans, the blooming |
bride, IS about ~. Ii seems they ran away
rom "old Kentucky" for the purpose
OF eonsammating the marriage, and having
heard many wonderful accounts Of the
prosperity OF Fort Worth, deter
mined to stop here aud learn whether there
was room here for live man with thrifty
vile To make fortune. Upon arrival here
they went to the Planters house, notifying
the proprietor and clerk of their purpose
and intention aud desiring TO have the altar
fixed up as soon as possible. A drawback
was caused, however, which delayed them
until this morning, as the baggage of
neither had arrived up TO last evening. 1t
arrived last night in time to have every.
thing ready for This morning. Their ward
robe was considered an absolute necessity

they found everything ready, Just as they
had arranged them. At about u quarter
past ii this morning, quite number OF
curious spectators gathered at the Planters
house to witness this novel affair, and
showed by their couutenances that they
were agreeably surprised at finding the
facts, which had leaked out, to be as repre-
scented.
When all was ready, the couple and little
girl came down stairs to the otl.room of the
Office, where all were gathered to witness
the ceremony, The little girl preferred TO
remain outside, and did not seem to realize
that anything unusual was going on. Rev.
Robert ID. Wear, who OBLIGATED, stood up,
when the couple entered, and performed
the ceremony in brief, but well conducted
manner, delivering an appropriate
prayer at the close of his remarks. For
u time 1t was supposed that hitch would
be made in another sense, as the license was
issued in the meme OF Miss Ida Evans, in
stead OF Mrs, which was the title OF the
bride. There being Miss Ida Evans in
the family, there exist grave doubts AS to
whether the groom, married the girl or her
mother. MIR. Stuart came from western
Kentucky, but has been to Louisville once
with Charlie Davis of Smithiield. The
newly-married couple will make their home
in Fort Worth, and are determined to show
everybody that young body guided by al
old and experienced brain can work AS great
success as two young hearts that beat ~
, one.--TFort Worth Democrat.
