Elopement-Nothing Heard from
Them So Far as Known

Miss Christina Croll, youngest daugh-
ter of contractor and Mrs. George Croll

with his uncle, j. S. klinefelter of 20 Cen.
trail street, and who is employed by the
Central Vermont railroad as freight
brakeman, disappeared from town at the
same time. As the young couple had
been in each others company more OIL
less of late their friends take it that they
went away together and that the circum-
stances indicate an elopement. No mar
riage license has been issued To them
from the town clerks office in Brattle-
boro.
Miss Croll worked at the Holstein- Erie
sian Register office as usual all day Tues
day and was at home for supper. She
was invited out in the evening, returning
home later. Shortly after O'Clock next
morning Mrs. Croll awoke and saw a
light in her daughters room, and on 90.
ing there found her daughter partly un-
dressed and with her suitcase packed
Upon being asked what she intended tc
do, the girl gave no information. Mrs
Croll demonstrated with her and urged
her not to do anything for which she
afterwards would be sorry.
| In the morning when Mrs. Croll awokC
she again went to sIiss CrolPs room anC
found that she had gone.
Mr.. Hamm took all of his belongings
but it IS said that he planned to move
his room soon.
