THEY WERE MARRIED QUIETLY.
Miss Mary HaxalI Becomes the Bride Of
DIR. III. IL. Scott.

There was quiet marriage in Richmond
Yesterday with which there is connected
lust enough romance to make the event Of
more than usual interest.
The bride was Miss Mary Haxall, of
Charles City county. who has many rela-
tives here. where she has spent much of
her life, and the groom was DR.. ii. r..
Scott, young dentist, whose Office is at
the corner of Fifth and Marshall streets.
The ceremony, which was witnessed by
only few friends, was performed by Rev.
DR.. William Il. Judkins, of Centenary
Methodist church, in his parlor.
The groom is member of the Howitzers
and was married in the handsome uniform
of that company, and after the ceremony
he and his bride left on the special excur-
sion train for New Orleans.
The marriage was surprise TO the young
lady's family, who knew nothing of it un-
til the bridal couple were on their way to
the Crescent City, where they will attend
the Mardi Gras. Her people. especially her
two sisters, were strongly opposed to the
match and every effort had been made to
prevent it. The bride is daughter of the
late Mr.. Haxall, of New Kent, and is con-
nected with the well-known family of that
name in Richmond.

CHICAGO. February 6.-Judge Tuley, Of

persons, and the services arc conducted In
an orderly manner.
A resident of Fulton speaking OF this
matter yesterday said that ont Of curiosity
he went TO hear the elders preach several
times. He had been unable, however, either
from their preaching or in compensation
with them. 10 find out exactly what their
doctrine was. They say they believe IN
Jesus Christ and His second coming, but
beyond this they declare nothing. They say
all men are damned, but prescribe no
remedy for their salvation.
This gentleman never heard them ex-
pound any polygamous doctrine, and does
not believe they are Mormons. his opinion
is that they are simply preaching. some
new doctrine, and that the story OF their
being Mormon elders is without founda-
tion OF fact. Those conducting services
now are not the same who first came on.
They have been changed several times,
and their headquarters appear TO be IA
Philadelphia rather than in Salt Lake City.
