of Church of England clergyman in Sussex,
near London, England. He met the young
lady in Rome, Italy, and by some means got
her history, and subsequently formed her acs
quaintsnce. She left the Continent for her
home, where she resided with her uncle. Her
aduirer followed her in haste to the Domin-
| ion, and proceeded to Perth. He had well
supplied himself with money, and he spent
| it lavishly. His lordship was received hes
pitably by his inamoratas friends without
| the least suspicion of his truthfulness
and honor After remaining a few
days he proposed trip to the Mon
treal Carnival. and invited the whole
household, including the uncle and aunt of
Miss ChaRey aad their two daughters. Mt
content with an ordinary conveyance, he
chartered special train, for which he paid
! $500, and brought his friends here,swhere he
| had telegraphed the st. Lawrence Hall to
keep him o whole suit Of private rooms.
| There was gay time on the journey. and
enjoyment in all the rounds of gaiety and
amusement. Between 5 and o'clock in the
afternoon preceding the great ball, Lord
Cantyre and Miss Oh iffey managed TO elude
| for awhile the vigilance of the latter's chaper-
one. The Same afternoon Rev. Mr.. Gal
brath, of the Methodist Church, was called
upon at his residence by young couple, VINO
requested him to make them man AID wife
Tne gentleman was accompanied by lawyer

form. He stated that the lady was from the
country The ceremony was Performed, he
lawyer acting as witness. Inc gentleman
signed his name to tie regular register Rs
John George Bruce Allen, and the newly
married pair then took themselves. off. All
parties 10 this hasty union were rewarded
| by large fees. When the time came for
departure for the ball. Lord Cantyre
and wife refused TO accompany the party,
making some slight excuse Tor thus changing
their minds. The next day the whole party
returned to Perth, his Lordship engaging a
parlor car especially for their c3mfort. He
| left no debts behind, being well prepared, ap-
parently. to carry out his scheme success
! fully. On returning TO Perth, something
came out which aroused suspicion Of the fel-
lows representations, and application was
made to Lord Lorne, in Ottawa, about his
| countryrnan and fellow peer. The announce
ment cana immedistely that no such title
was known TO the British peerage as Can
tyre, and the party must be a swindler end
rogue. In the explanation that followed, the
announcement came forth about the secret
marriage here, and caused such an uprcar
among the lady's friends that they were at
first inclined to lynch him. The imposser de-
camped mysteriously. The family arrived
| here yesterday to make inquiries, and found,
through lawyers. that the knot was tied, but,
as il was accomplished through false repre-
carnations regarding the girls age, il can be
annulled by the Courts. The bride agrees to
! discard him, now that she knows he is not
true Lord.
