The Dayton Maiden, Reasons for D.cinr-
ing tho Wedding On-She Fiees to spring
field and VIII We'd a Hoosier Dairy man.
Tuesdays Dayton Journal contained an sc-
count OF the proposed wedding last Monday
evening of Mr.. Frank Adams and Miss Edith |
Shain, the lady's refusal to fulfill the contract,
the interference OF her friends, her departure |
Adams by her desertion in the hour when
they were to be made one. The cause for
her strange conduct in changing her mind
has not been understood by the public, and
no explanation was given for it except that
she said "she never wanted to marry Frank,
but made the engagement because she was
afraid of him" This did not seem plausible,
and many were the speculations as to the real
cause.
A special to the Enquirer OF yesterday,
from Anderson, Ind, throws light on the
m ysterious affair.
Miss Shain loved and was engaged to an
other man, Walter Lsrimore, a wealthy
young Hoosier. The dispatch says that
three weeks ago Miss Shain came here on
visit tos friend of hers, Mrs T. J. Frampton.
She had been here but short time when she
became acquainted with Walter Larmore. .
| young dairyman, who called daily at the
residence OF the Frsmptons 70 deliver
milk. Walter is one OF the fuest and
wealthiest young men in the county,
and soon mutual love grew up between
him and Edith. II seems that Adams had
somehow learned Of this, and proposed to
learn the truth Of this.
On Saturday afternoon, August 30th, Mise
Shain received telegram from him, saying
he would be here on the Richmond accom-
mediation. She did not care 10 meet HIM
and at once made ready, and when Mr.. Lar.
imore called with his milk wagon while
making his evening round, she got in with
him and went to his home, three miles eas
OF here, to visit his sisters, with whom
she was well acquainted Adams ar
rived on time, snd going to Tramp
tons was told that Edith was in the country
but they knew not where. He proceeded II
investigate, aud finding the Western Unlor
messenger boy pumped him until he declared
he had delivered the message Saturday. H'
tackled Mr.. Framp,on about the matter, ant
g said he proposed to see Edith. Framp;or
=, | coolly said that he was tool and could no
see her, as she was in the country, and th'
best thing for him to do was to 60 back Il
!. | Dayton. Adams, acting on his advice, re
| turned on the midnight train.
4 Edith then wrote tc her mother asking he
to come here aud see Mr.. Larrim IRE. rs they
were engaged to marry. The old lady came
and finding him to be one OF the best youns
men OF the county, gave her consent to th'
marriage, which was 6xed for DAY withir
the neat three weeks, the ceremony to TAX
place at Springfield, Ohio.
Last Saturday Miss Shsin came home
Sunday engaged to msrrSMr. Adams, fxinl
the time tor the wedding at 8 o'clock Mon
day evening, and before that time arrive
she was sent away, no one would tel
, where. Wednesday Mr.. Frampton, OF An
dersou, the gentleman at whose house Mis-
Shaiu had been visiting, received the follow
ing telegram from Springfield, o:
= Tell Walter to be OIL his guard OF Adam

!. This would indicate that Miss Shsin wei
