TAKE NO CHANCES NOW

Cupid had another hour of triumph
on Friday when Miss Marian Kline and
Harry Quandt, the Lyman avenue cou-
pie who have been meeting with all
kinds of difficulties in their romance,
slipped quietly away to Waukegan and
were married there before any halt
could be brought in the procedure.
They returned to Kenosha on Friday
evening and though they did not make
any public announcement of the mar
riage, did admit to their friends that
the nuptial knot had been tied at
Waukegan.
eyes, they're married and living here
now" was the only announcement made
at the home of Mr.. and Mrs. Gus
Quandt, the bridegroom's parents.
"They prefer to have no more publ
city regarding their marriage"
Long Fight for Cupid.
1t has been a long chase for Cupid.
1t is recalled that several weeks ago
all plans had been made for the mar
riage to take place at the parsonage
of the Friedens Evangelical Lutheran
church. A few days before the date
set, the bride-to-be was called to her
uncle's home near Twin Lakes by the
illness of her mother, Mrs. Julia Kline.
When the bride did not appear for the
nuptials, the bridegroom secured a
writ of habeas corpus in the courts,
alleging that Miss Kline was virtually
held a prisoner at the home of the
uncle, William Kline, in order to halt
the wedding.
A family conference was arranged
at that time and an agreement reach
ed whereby the wedding was to be
postponed indefinitely.
Quit Claim Deed Filed.
Several days later-December 5th-
there was filed in the office of the
register of deeds a quit claim deed
given by Miss Marian Kline to her
mother, Mrs. Julia Kline, for her share
in the large farm and other properties
left by her father, Charles Kline,
former county supervisor, from the
fifth ward who died more than a year
ago. The deed stated that for "$1 and
other valuable considerations" the quit
claim deed was given. 1t was limited
at the time that "the other valuable
considerations" might include an agree
ment that the mother would not in
terfere longer with any of her daugh-
ter's plans for marriage.
1t was also limited at that time by
the attorney for the family that the
quit claim deed was given merely
to make it easier to handle the af-
fairs of the estate.
Both Are Widely known.
Both Mr.. and Mrs. Quandt are wide
ly known in Kenosha and have large
circle of friends to wish them happi-
ness. Mrs. Quandt is a graduate of
the Kenpsha High school, where she
established an enviable record. For
several years she has been employed
at the First National Bank, where she
had made many friends.
Mr.. Quandt is also graduate of
the Kenosha High school and is now
member of the school board from the
fifth ward. He is engaged in the car
penter contractor business with his
father.
For the present Mr. and Mrs. Quandt
will make their home with the bride
groom's parents at % North Lyman
avenue.
Married in Waukegan.
Investigation at Waukegan this
morning revealed that the wedding
had been solemnized on Friday after
noon at the parsonage of the Methodist
church of that city, the Reverend Mr..
Charles A. Kelly officiating 1t was
learned that the two had quietly left
