Yesterday morning a well dressed
couple hailing from Morgantown came
to town and after dinner inquired for
Squire Dawson's Office. They soon
found it and expressed desire TO the
squire to be united in marriage,
seemingly perfectly happy and eager
for the ceremony The squire was
soon hard at work filing out the nee
essary blanks. While thus engaged
the parade passed by, and Mr.. Daw-
son suggested that the ceremony be
postponed for few moments. The
couple went outside, and after the
parade had passed the bride refused
to return. The pleadings Of her
would-be husband were all in vain.
They returned to Morgantown on the
evening train, aud have not been
heard from since. Squire Dawson
mourns the loss of the usual fee, but
blames no one but himself. Union
