PUTNAM
Outrageous Horse Play by Which
Bride is Acknowledgements Tous-
saint Wedding-John w. Shields
Under S25 Eonds-Assautted Officer.


To have ones bride of two hours
stolen is no joke, but this was an ex-
perienea that Adelard Viens of this city
was sub eeted to Monday morning by
a party of his friends who probably
had no other intention than to pull off
an extraordinary stunt on their bride
groom companion. although, as a mat
ter of fact. they laid themselves liable
for technical violation of the law.
Mr. Viens who is employed in
local barber shop. and Miss Blanche
Trottier, also of this city. were mar
ried by Rev John Van den MORT at
St. Marys church at o'clock in the
presence of gathering of friends and
relatives. Miss Belle Trottier, sister
of the bride and Ladislaw Lavallee of
Southbridge, formerly of Putnam. were
the attending couple. A reception fol-
lowed at the home of the bride
Everything was as delightful as the
beautiful June morning up to the time
that Mr.. and Mrs. Viens came to the
station to take the 1890 train to Bos-
ton Then their brief, extraordinary
and unexpected trouble began. The
bride was one of the most surprised
little brides that ever was when a
group of young men, friends of the
couple accosted them at the subway,
separated her from her husband. after
considerable resistance, he being held,
rushed her across to waiting auto
mobile on the Union square SIDE,
cranked the machine and whirled her
away toward Pomfret. In the mean
time the train came in and went-nus
Mr.. and Mrs. Veins were not passen-
gers The incident created hub-bub
about the station. The bridegroom
was. as well he might be. deeply cha
grined. There was nothing left for
him to do but to return to the brides
home and await her return, whenever
that might be, and that was the course
he followed.
AS for the irate bride and her cap
tors. they went over to Pomfret re-
turning in about half an hour There
was a reunion tinged with some dis
appointment, when the couple We're re-
appointment for which they
were in no way to blame.
The interrupted honeymoon trip was
again inaugurated when the 1888 ex-
press got away and this time there
was no horse play. Before leaving
the bride. again restored to the state
of smiles. stated that she lost her slip
per when she was Kidnapped a couple
of hours before, but she considered this
an omen of good luck.
AS for the abductors, they caused the
bride and groom to fail to reach Bos-
ton on the train upon which friends
were expecting them and waiting for
them.
