Suffolk. Va. Sept. 2G.-(SpeciaD-AIiss
Whitley Duke. the pretty 2o-year- old
daughter of Capt. Charles Duke. WAS
married on September LIST. but her faith
err did not know 1t until to-day. Neither
did her brothers. nor the public. On
September 1st she went off ostensibly ON
a pleasure trip. She returned all right
and continued to reside with her father
who suspected nothing. To-day Mr..
Alonzo P. Harrell. an Industrious young
farmer. came in town to claim his
bride of nearly four weeks ago. He got
her.
Her family had known of the mutual
affection existing between tine young
people. but had used their influence to
prevent the union. They failed. The
trip to South Mills. n. c.. on Scptem-
Der 1st was nicely planned. and executed
without Il hitch. They left town with
out parental knowledge and it's inevita-
BILE opposition. No suspicion was cXcit-
ed. nor was there any undue comment
when the young lady returned. The
ceremony was performed by Rev. Mr..
Pool who. though Il North Carolina
minister. is an experienced hand at
tYinG knots binding the deatincs of Nir-
ginia COUPLES.
Twenty-Five days passed. The young
couple determined this afternoon to ac-
knowledge their relations 10 the world,
and defy the consequences. But the
young bride even then could not nerve
herself to brook the storm OF parental
opnosition by Il verbal communication.
She wrote 4 nicely Worded note inform
ing her father of her marriage, and
leaving 1t In n conspicuous place. join
ed her husband. and was rapidly driven
to their future home. about six miles
from Suffolk. where NJ. Harrell tills IA
productive little farm. Capt. Duke may
wish the young couple To be the reel
pients of Gods choicest blessings, but
he didn't say SO.
Her relatives are apparently in no
verv pleasant condition OF temper. One
of the brides brothers was seen re-
CnrdinC the marriage this afternoon.
He was not enthused over the receipt
of the information. lac said he didn't
know any Of the particulars-whcn or
where the ceremony WAS performed
and didn't care Il d.. He didn't rec
ognize Mr.. Harve.i. His sister had boon
warned by her father no: Ia consider
herself n member al his family Shouli
the marriage occur. Mutual friends
hone that everything will be- forgiven.
