leads through a field of low ground which

The annual meeting of the Porth Law

On the 10th inst., so says a Stratford
correspondent, Albert E. Elcombe waa
married to Miss Annie Mahoney. The
story of the oouetslti•) and lmerriags is
interesting. The bridegruon is a dapper
little Englishman who arrived in this
city in April last from Linoolnshire,
England. On shipboard he made the
aoquitietanceof a little Swiss Rtes, which
promised to develop into mutual love.
She located at Rochester, and letters
were frequently esohauged. A week ago
last Wednesday the bridegroom nue.
chased an engagement ring, with which
he intended to seal the compact. On
showing it to a friend he was chided
with having to go so far away for a bride
while there were so many charming
young ladies in Stratford. The sugges-
tion seemed to take immediate root, and
the young man 111 once maria hie way to
the tailor shop in oouneetiot with the
establishment in which he waa employ-
ed,
mployed, and in the company of the girls there-
in assembled made the startling offer
that he would marry any girl in the room
whom the ring would t10 and who would
accept him. The ring fitted three of the
number, but two of them declined the
proposition, but the third decided to give
au immediato answer. Sho, however,
remained after shop hones, aed the oom•
pant was seededl. The brief courtship of
a week was not overburdened with senti-
ment. It wa. bnsinaaa from the begin•
ning to end. Some friends of the bride-
groom, thinking that he might in time
repent as hasty a wooing, counselled him
the night previous to declare the cere-
mony off, but he manfully refused. He
deulared that ho had given his word, and
would stand by it, and so ho did.
