PAPA WAS NOT WILLING.
Miss Ida Was. Howevor. aud She Married
Mr. Pond.

Up to yesterday afternoon there lived
with her parents, al, $40 south Pine street.
Miss Ida @. Ingersoll. afine-looking, stately
blonde Just turned twenty-ono. In addl-
ton to her beauty Miss Ida possessed those
lovely qualities that go to make up the
affectlonae daughter and true woman.
Her parents were not unmindful OF these
facts, and she being the only unmarried
daughter they looked upon her as the apple
of their eyes.
There was another person who also ap-
preciated Miss Ida's beauty and lovely
character. Ii was Mr.. Charles w. Pond,
between whom and her a strong attach;
ment sprung up, which in time developed
into full-grown, strong, healthy case 'oi
love.
The progress Of genuine affection was no
less uneven in this instance than In ali
Others on record. Parental objections
were strenuous. but did not avail.
The twain, while young. had botn AZ
tanned their majority, and finding all per-
suasive argument hopeless desperate ex-
pedient was determined upon.
Yesterday afternoon about 3 o'clock MISS
Ida left her fathers house with the ayowed
intention of going shopping. Before GONG
O great distance she was met by her
plighted lover. The couple proceeded 70
Grace street, where friend was
waiting for them with carriage.
This was quickly entered and the party
was rapidly driven TO Rev. W. III: Atwilfs
house, llS west Clay street. They were
shown into the parlor. where tho minister
ut once performed the ceremony which
made them husband and wife.
Reenterlng tho carriage Mr.. and Mrs.
Pond were nj the Danville depot in few
minutes. Here numerous friendswho had
been let into the secret were gathered 10
extend congratulations.
At 4:8O p. M. they took the train for West
Point en- route TO Baltimore.
A Dispatch reporter called at the resi-.
dence OF Mr.. 1ngersoll last night, but
members of the family. who had evidently
been apprised of the marriage, declined to
discuss the subject at all.

The Plymouth Rock fowls on exhibition

The Assembly Ball.
DECREE TO BE ENTERED.
Programme TO lie Followed in Taking
Cup" the Bettie Thomas Case.

Cup" the Bette Thomas Case.
Just as soon as Judge Leake orders de-
cree to be entered in accordance with his
opinion, rendered Monday in the Bette
Thomas-Lewis case. q copy of the complete
record will he ordered by the counsel for
the curators and heirs-at-law. The decree
will be prepared by Hon. George l.. Chris
tian. It will be handed the counsel on the
other side to-day and to the Court to-mor-
row.
When Clerk Goddin has completed q
copy Of all the papers in the case they will
be presented by one of the counsel for the
defendants TO one of the judges of the Su-
preme Court with an application for writ
of error.
This will of course be granted, tho record
will be handed to the Clerk of that court,
who will have sufficient number Of copies
of it printed so as to give one or more to
every person interested in the case, which
will then be placed regularly on the
docket.
The proceedings as q whole will be eX-
cepted TO, but the specific point that will be
raised is that the gift from Thomas to his
daughter was not good and valid one ac-
cording to the evidence, and even il it
were sustained by the evidence it would
not be valid.
In the Dispatcks condensed report Of
Judge LeekeS opinion OF the case puD-
lished yesterday there were several slight
inaccuracies.
Whore the Judge said "Dr. Mcclure
gives some very natural reasons why he
1Thomas) did not make will, and tol.o
can soy that between October and his
death he did change his mind, and in
tend to give all the property to Bette, the
only person he seemed to love-" the
words in italics were omitted, changing
the meaning of the entire sentence.
In referring TO the evidence of DR.. Nc
Guire and others the expert said; Even
If all the statements are exaggerated" ETC.,
the lest word should be "erchided."
And again: Gifts of this character are
more ancient than by la,o" should be
grill"
The names of Messrs. B. b. Munford, w.
]. Robertson, Peatross & Harris, and Green
4 Miller were by slip of the pen desig-
mated as counsel for the plaintiffs, whereas
they were on the opposite side.
