BRIEF AND pRosAIc MARRIAGE cEREMoSr
Inside Of fifteen minutes Justice Gregory ar
rived. There was hurried consultation and
then the young man brought the biushing
young lady forward. The ceremony was brief
one, and the justice, who is O very prosaic old
gentleman. put on no extra frills. He did not
know that the bride WAS the daughter Of the
Chief Justice of the United States. and neither
did any of those who were present outside of
the contracting parties. When the ceremony
was concluded. the old justice called for wit
nesses. and two young men were captured in
| the billiard room and ran to affix their sigma
lures to the necessary document. The knot was
legally and firmly spliced.
Mrs. Aubery. nee Pauline Fuller. is nineteen
years of age, highly educated and remark
ably handsome woman.

THE coURrsHIP OF THE PAIR.
As near as can be learned the acquaintance
OF the bride and groom began about three
years ago. Justice Fuller. who was then plain
lawyer Fuller. hyed with his eight daughters
on Lake avenue, only O short distance from the
home of young Aubery. The young people
first met at party given in the neigbborhood.
An attachment sprung up between them. and
when II became apparent it was opposed by the
fullers. Miss Pauline declared, however, that
she would marry whom she pleased and her
father recognized her right to do as she pleased
MRS. FULLERs CONTINUED OPPOSITION.
Mrs. Fuller continued to oppose the match.
About this time Lawyer Fuller was named as
Chief Justice of the United States. Mrs Fuller
packed up and carried Miss Pauline away to
Washington with the other Misses Fuller.
About the lst of last January Miss Pauline
came to Chicago, and has since remained in
this city. visiting friends of the family.
The story of the elopement Of the young pair
is an interesting one, and demonstrates that
young Aubery has cut his eye teeth. To begin
with, he hired two detectives to shadow him
and his afianced until they left Chicago. His
object was to learn If any one was following
them and to prevent the young lady being
rescued

Miss Fuller and a Chicago candy store was the
trysting-place. They boarded Milwaukee and

and came direct to this city. The correspond
ent called on Justice Gregory early this MORN
ing and greatly astonished that gentleman by
informing him that he had married daughter
of the Chief Justice of the United States. On
looking at the marriage certificate, however.
be was more surprised that the fact had not
struck him before, for there before his ewes
were the full names of the Chief Justice and his
wife, as well as those of the groom's father and
mother. Young Mr.. Aubrey proposes to remain
