SURPRISE MARRIAGE.
Two Popular Young Irvingtonians
Kept Their Secret Well.

1t only leaked out this week that ten
days previous Mr.. Orris James, q young
merchant OF Irvington, and Miss NJ. Kate
Rowe, daughter of Mrs. Geo. d. Calls
and sister of the foreman in the CITIZEN
office, had joined hands and made two
hearts beat as one. They stole away
Wednesday, April LIST, and, pressing Rev.
Fred Claybrook into service at his home
in Kilmarnock, there and then the knot
was tied.
While the event was surprise to Irv-
mgtonians it had long been foreshad-
owed. Congratulations have been speed
ing right and left all this week and the
handsome couple have rivaled in bushes
the flowers that bloom in the spring.
While somewhat in the nature of an
elopement, it was occasioned by no OPP
position from either family-only a caper
of the young people. 1t was the brides
desire to keep the matter a secret until
the end of her school, soon to be, but ten
days brought the strain to an end. Miss
Rowe is the popular teacher of school
near Capt. w. +. Simmons, below Kill
marnock. They avoided the conyen-
tional rice throwing and the tin pans OF
bad boys, but they are being showered
with congratulations and the best wishes
OF our people.
