Philadelphia Back OF the mar
riage of Miss Adah Pratt, OF l437
Irving street, Washington. to b.
Franklin Hoover, Of Philadelphia, lies
a story of unusual romance.
Miss Pratt lived until she was
twenty-nine years old without form
ing the acquaintance Of man. She
was born and raised in "A community
of women taught to believe that mar
riage was a sin. She was bound by
teaching and belief always to remain
single. Then she married the first
man to whom she ever had been in
troduced She did more than half
the courting herself
Nearly thirty years ago, In Texas,
where Mrs. Hoover's mother lived at
the time, a Mrs. Martha McWhirter
OF Waco, announced that she had had
a visitation from the Almighty. and
had been told that IL was sinful TO
live with man. Accordingly, she left
her husband and, gathering about her
a small party of women followers,
went to the little town OF Bolton and
there established headquarters Of the
new creed.
It was called the Woman's Com
IlS NtIt all
well to do and self-supporting. Some
were spinsters, some had been mar
ried and some had children. Mrs.
Pratt was one Of the convDts OF the
religion, and, leaving her husband,
she joined the colony where, two
months afterward, the present Mrs.
Hoover was born. There were ten
children in the colony, all girls.
Ten years ago the commonwealth
moved to Washington, taking up a
farm of 172 acres in Montgomery
County, Maryland, and a large house
in the city. The children were taught
to beware of men. They never were
permitted TO have acquaintances with
any of them.
OF course they saw men. Mrs.
Hoover says she often had noticed
them. But she never paid attention
TO any of them until she met Hoover.
This is the way she told her story:
Five OF the girls grew up" she
said. "and then slipped away TO be
married. OF course they were re-
garded as sinners. ] thought them
