Tertiary for five years. Douder was school
teacher, and in fifty years Of active service

ago he established girls seminary in Lii
thonia, which soon had large attendance,
owing to the high character and
whitened locks Of the teacher.
Among his pupils was one fragile
looking girl of about ten years. To her the
teacher took strong liking aud delighted in
aiding her in her studies. For two years all
went well, when it began to be whispered
that singular relations existed between pupil
and teacher. The discovery by the child
mother that the girl was on the road to
maturity created a shock from which she fell
dangerously i'll. Within an hour the girl had
rushed to Dunder and warned him that the
secret was out. Taking the child by the arm,
they just had time to board train, and,
reaching Atlanta, they proceeded up the Air
Line road in the endeavor to get married.
As the girl was under thirteen, the ceremony
could not be performed, and the couple
kept on the way 10 South Carolina.
Meanwhile an alarm had been
given of the girls disappearance
and close pursuit was kept up, resulting in
the capture of the pair before they had been
married. They were returned to the DeKalb
county JAIL where the old teacher begged
that the child should be left in the cell all
stay that she had to be pulled away. Douder
was tried and convicted Of kidnapping, and
the decision just rendered leaves him to his
fate.
