Was on Way East to School.

The following dispatch from Fort

'Miss Gwendolyn Hoard. daughter
of A. R. Hoard and granddaughter of

"Miss Hoard lett home Monday in

Roanoke, Va. Nothing further was
heard of her until late this afternoon
when the father received a special
delivery letter from the bridal couple,
apprising him of the marriage and
begging his forgiveness and blessing.
miss Hosrd's story reads like d
romance. Not until early this summer
did she meet Mr.. Wood. She was
spending the season at Lake Kosh-
hOiIOHSy NHSIe Sic IiSt anu was III
troduced to him. From the first the
couple were thrown constantly togeth-
er and when they left for their homes
it was only after they had plighted
their troth.
"Miss Hoard informed her parents
of her engagement, it meeting with
their full approval. But it was not
expected that the wedding was to
come so soon. All plans were COM
pleted for her to spend the year in the
eastern school, and Monday she left
with the supposed intention of taking
up her studies.
''Theodore Wood is young bust
ness man of good family. He is en-
gagged in the publishing business in
Chicago and has also interests in the
packing industry.
In the letter to Mr.. Hoard the
couple stated their intentions of spend
ing couple Of weeks in the east anC
that they would register at the Knick-
erbocker MOTEL in New YORK city. They
will make thier home in Chicago.
