A SUCCESSFUL ELOPEMENT
And Marriage of william Marrow, OF Rich
mond. and Helen Bates. Of Hanover.


mond, and Helen Bates. of Hanover.
lCorrespondence Of tho Richmond Dispatch.l
GAIyEs's MILL. Va, August IA, 1890.
Not for wears has old Hanover been so
shaken by a sensational affair as it was on
last Tuesday by the elopement and mar
rage of Miss Helen Bates, one OF our most
accomplished and charming young ladies'
10 Mr.. William Marrow. a well-known
Young man of Richmond. 1t seems that
they have been In love with each other
since 1885. but the match was so strongly
opposed by Miss Helen's family that Mr..
Marrow stopped visiting her: IN truth. ne
was requested By brother of the young
lady to never enter the house again.
THEY MET.
Notwithstanding the opposition to the
match Mr.. Marrow arranged meeting
with his lady-love in Richmond and other
places At one time Miss Helen was at
picnic in the neighborhOod. and MIR. Mar
row drove out from Richmond 70 the
grounds. but as soon rs the Bates family DIS
covered his presence Miss Helen was quick
ly taken to her home by one Of her brothers.
For the last three years she has been
teacher of public school in this district
and has taken leading part IN the Singing
and Sunday-school entertainments OF wal
mutt Grove church, of which she was
member.
LIVELY CORRESPONDENCE.
During this time the family thought Mr..
Marrow we'll rid of. but 1t seems that o
lively correspondence was kept up between
them by the aid of some of her larger pu-
pills. For the last week or so she has been
visiting the church twice week rehearsing
the children for the Children's-dav enter
tainment, which is to take place next Sun
day. On last Tuesday morning. accompa-
MED by two neighboring little girls, she at
tended the church as usual for practice.
HoAxED.
As hoax to keep her family at home she
told them that she would bring company
back with her to dinner. On arriving at
the church she robed herself in her bridal
dress, assisted by one of the larger girls IN
the yestibule of the church.
THE KNOT TIED.
Soon after, as she had arranged. MIR.
Marrow arrived from Richmond accompa-
MED by the Rev. Mr.. Tucker. The happy
knot was soon tied, and the bride, after
kissing all the children good-by, sent q note
by one of them to her mother telling her
she was married and that she would write
to her in few days from New York. She
then got into the waiting carriage and was
rapidly whirled away by the side OF her
happy husband. The verdict OF Hanover
is bravo and three cheers for Miss Helen.
