must be performed tonight
Flanagan said that he thought Capt.
John Kelly could arrange the matter.
He escorted the couple 10 the Seventh
street police station and sent for JUS
tice Martin D. Kelly. When he was
told why his services were needed and
that it would be necessary for him to
provide witnesses, he called on Arthur
McGraw and Miss Fanny Ludwig, two
neighbors, who accompanied him 10
the police station.
Justice Kelly was about to perform
the ceremony when ii was discovered
that the prospective bridegroom had
failed TO provide himself with a ring.
Having taken the measure of the
brides finger, Capt. Kelly sent an Of
ficer to arouse a jeweler on Pavonia
avenue and the ring was secured with
little delay. After that the ceremony
was quickly performed.
The bridegroom said he was Francis
B. Riker, of Brooklyn, and the bride
described herself as Ada NJ. Dunn, %
years old, also Of Brooklyn, employed
as a Etenographer by New York firm.
They said Miss Dunn's parents object
ed to her marrying on the ground that
she was too young. Mr.. Riker said he
and Miss Dunn talked the matter over
and finally concluded to go TO Jersey
City and be married. They had little
doubt that the brides parents would
