Runaway Couple Married Before n
Surprised Sunday Congregation.
Woodstock. Va, May 3.-John II. SAINT
mers and Miss Lucy G. McCann, both Of
Edinburg. were married at Mount Clifton
on Sunday under difficult and trying cir
cumstances.
1t seems that the mother of the young
lady objected to her daughters choice. and
in order to keep her from her purpose held
her under close scrutiny. Sunday after
neon Miss McCann was thought to be in
her room, but the young people were equal
to the vigilance of the parent and the
bride-elect was taken out the second-story
window and hasty trip made to Mount
Jackson TO the Methodist Episcopal par
sonage. there only to find that the min
lister. Rev. Briley. was at Mount Clifton,
fvoier six miles distant.
IL distance was soon covered and
Mount Clifton reached just before church
services were closed. They went into the
church and after making their wish known
were welded there in the presence of the
surprised congregation.
