From the first night they were introduced, when he escorted her home, they were together all the time he could take from his work. They could scarcely take their eyes off each other, acquaintances say. One month later they went to Wilmington, Del, were married and returned the same day to live in her apartments.
 It was a week before Charlton wrote to- his brother telling of his marriage. Judge Charlton got a glimpse of his daughterin-laM's past and hurried to New York. She found the couple apparently dead in love and decided his course was to make the best of it.
