AN ELopRMENT.
A johnson County Father outwitted by
the Young Folks.


the Young Folks.
Yesterday morning at II O'Clock, while
the crowd of anti-ProhlbiiionistS were
suglng to aud fro about the polls at the
courthouse, young man net more than
twcniy-thrcc years old, accompanied by
young lady OF eighteen, foceN their way
through the crowd and made a bee line
for the county clerks office. reporter
Tor THn GAZETTE followed in their wake.
ON entering the Office the young man,
whose name lis George Wilson, ap.
preached County Clerk Swayne aud stated
that lie wished to procure his license TO
marry. The clerk propountied the usual
questions and they being answered In
satisfactory manner, the document was
| issued, authorizing the marriage of
| George Wilson and Lula Ray.
Judge Furman was holding county
court In the next room, and as the couple
wished TO be married "rlght OFT" he
kindly consented to suspend proceedings
In order 10 satisfy their wishes. In a
brief style he Went through the usual
( formalltics, aud as no one intcrposed any
objections To the nuptlmls he pronounced
them man and wife.
The groom answered in u ierky tone Of
voice and by the trembling of his under.
/ pinning II was evident that this was his
| first experience, The Precipitation stood
on his forehead In drops as large as a
hucklebcrry. The bride was not ~ much
agtated as was the groom, aud passed
! through the ceremony In much better
style. The only bad break she made was
In answering the questions of the Judge
before he had finished asking them.
| When the ceremony was concluded the
groom went for his pocket book and set
! tied the damages like man. To our re-
porter, gentleman who accompanied the
couple, stated that they were genuine
runaway couple, who resided In johnson
county near Alvamdo. Their courtship
had been long and loving, but the brides
parents were opposed TO her marrying
Wilson and forbade her to receive his at
| tentions.'
Clandestne meetings were held and an
clopement was planned To the Fort.
Night before last the young lady made
some excuse To leave the house, and was
met on the outSideNby her lover and a
/ friend. Three horses stood Saddlcd near
/ by and In u jiffy the three were mounted
and speeding away from the unsuspcct-
ing old folks.
A ride Of two hours brought the party
TO the house of n friend, where they re-
manned until daylight yesterday morning
The horses were again saddlcd and n
rapid ride was made to this place, whore
the ceremony above mentioned was per-
formed. The girl Is rather comely and
the young man has the appearance of one
who will take good care of her.
