A wellto-do lady was found at her house
prostrated in her bed alone, unable to

This is q slight picture of the condition Of
many families in Brennan. No servant
or help can be hired, because all the black
people are in the country picking cotton
and we have no other system Of domestic
service, except an occasional foreign ser

up to this time none have died. So far a.
the suffering of those stricken down is con.

CHILDREN ELoPE.
A Sensation In Greensburg, Pa, Society
A Very Young Couple.

A Sensation In Greensburg, Pa, Society
Avery Young Couple.
PIrTsBURG, October IA Greensburg,
Pa, special to the Chronicle Telegraph
says:
Society circles in this place are consider
ably stirred up over the latest sensation in
the elopement line. 1t appears that two Of
our young people concluded to take advan-
tage of the two days grace allowed before
the license law took effect and accordingly
on Tuesday they together took the train for
Pittsburg, and were there married by JUS
tice Of the Peace, said to have been 7. H
O'Donnell, or some name like that.
Tie principals in the sensational elope-
ment are hardly more than children, and
much indignation is expressed that any
man in the full possession of his right senses
should marry 90 young couple. Willie
]. Coshey, lately one OF the messenger boys
for the Bankers and Merchants Telegraph
Company of this place, is the happy
bridegroom. BE is the son of the
wealthy liveryman, d. ]. Coshey, Of this
place. The blbshing bride is the only
daughter of j. NJ Laird, editor of the
Greensburg Argus, and the adopted dsugh,
ier of the Tenth Regiment, n. G, P. She
is the young lady for whom the Regiment
nearly lynched man at the late encamp-
ment at Conneaut Lake for insulting her.
The combined ages of this interesting col.
pie would hardly reach thirty years. Billie"
as the young Benedict is known to his play
mates, is now the messenger boy for the
Pennsylvania railroad office here. The
affair has created great sensation, ss well
as amusement.
1t is not known how the parents Of the
children will act in the matter, as the Major
is undoubtedly dangerous man to inter
view in his present unsettled state of mind
and temper, as he is not very well satisfied
with tbs state of affairs; and if he should
happen to meet that Pittsburg Justice who
ned the knot, he would undoubtedly tie him
