AGED Sutton JuTED On Saturday last
after the offices of the Court House had been
closed, marriage license clerk N E Blser was
called from his home on North M arkct street
to issue license to John Fox, whose home
is near McKaig, tins county, to we'd Lena
Clark. Mr.. Foxs age was given as eighty
four years and his intended brides as nine.
teen.
The license was issued but the marriage
has not taken plnce. The young woman
went back on the agreement ut the last mo.
ment and Mr. Fox had to 20 to his home
alone, n disappointed man. Yesterday even
ing Miss Clark, who says her real name is
Cline, was arrested and taken to Jail, after
another man had attempted to secure her for
his bride and had obtained license to per.
nit the marriage.
Miss Clark, or Cline, came to Frederick
several weeks ago She is pretty and by
her gay conduct attracted great deal of
attention. Mr.. Fox, who, it is said, has been
looking for a wife for some time. met her
last week, became nGtua and asked her
to marty him. A gift of a sum Of money, it
is said, secured her promise and Mr.. Fox,
trusting in that, took cut the license. The
promise did not count for much with the
young woman, however, end, having the
monev, she laughed at her aged sutton.
That ended the case as far as Mr.. Fox was
concerned with it. The young woman's
troubles began yesterday when a telegram
care from the Female House of Refuge to
Sheriff Patterson asking him to arrest the
girl, who, il was stated, had escaped from
that institution several weeks ago. Miss
Clark, or Cline, had gone to Braddock
Heights. An officer found her there arrested
her, brought her back to the city and took
her before Magistrate White. There Harry
Harry King declared his desire to marry the
girl. Equity Clerk Webster Hiteshew was
hunted up and he issued a license for Harry
King and Lena Cline. Magistrate White,
however, would not let the girl 60 and after
much deliberation committed her to the Gus
tody of the sheriff. She spent last night in
Jail and this morning was taken before Chief
Judge McSherry, who ordered that she be
held in the custody of the sheriff until the
officers OF the House Of Refuge send for her
and that the latter must decide as to whether
che shall be permitted to wed.-Neps.
