ing eloped with her to Springfield,
where they were secretly married
last week. Mr.. Monk has been Off

young lady had prior to few
months ago been employed in a Peoria
confectionery store, but two months
ago returned to her parents home at
Pekin. Isaac had been paving at
tention to Miss Donavan, but her
parents objected because of Mr..
Monks religious affiliations. This
did not discourage Isaac in his reso-
luton to become benedict; neither
did it cool the affections of the young
lady for her faithful lover.
