and neither had ever ridden on n train before.
The groom was II ami tho bride IL. They had
e!oped to n Virginia town whore they were made
one by an obliging Squire. But the unusual
part OF the tour was that the bride had become
homcsiCk, and cried all the way to her destinR-
tion. never once speaking to her liege lord, a lad
diked out In a suit OF blue ~Overalls.
Another couple was seeing the train at n
mountain station, that being "a pleasant bit OF
recreation for them. Tho groom, so the engineer
told me. was II and the bride 81. They were
bent with age, but seemed to be as happy as any
pakr of prattling youngsters l ever saw.
