house of Batch and child made its
appearance on the scene, he was
given to understand by his militant

After the child's birth when it was
found to be girl, Mrs, Blatch offered
me $4,000 if ! would release all my

PateF OF Sweetheart No
Match For Thiss,MaD

Elyria, O., July 20-A romance that
began when Teddy" Hoard, 21 years
old, an automobile tester, picked up
Miss Ivy Peck, % years old, daughter
of a wealthy Ridgeville farmer, last
spring, and carried her in an automo-
bile to the school house on Stoney
Ridge, where she taught, eliminated
today in one of the most sensational
elopements that has happened In Lor-
ain county. Young Hoard played
Lochinvar.
Denied the privilege of visiting his
fiance at her home by a stern par
ent, who sent the girl to Akron to
spend the summer with relatives,
Hoard arranged with Miss Peck to
meet him in Cleveland last night. He
met her there by the time the Probate
office was open this morning and
brought her to Elyria. The marriage
quickly followed the issuance of the
license, and Hoard and his bride left
for a wedding trip to Detroit They
will return Saturday, and begin house
keeping in home Hoard purchased
several days ago.
The first intimation the mother of
the bride had that her daughter had
eloped and was married, was when
a representative of the Leader called
her by phone. Upon the receipt of
the information Mrs. Peck was unable
to make any statement, but broke in
to sobs that ended the conversation.
