Miss Oyster was striving for class honors, ................nportanceofastrict )f th© schooL Thus 10 peace appeared asking th e young npanion, to which and she recognized the importance o f a strict conformity to th© rules of th© schooL Thus intimidated she consented to go to Hannibal, Mo., twenty miles distant, and go through a marriage ceremony \with a m an whom she had previously declared she could not love; \•'In less than an h our the couple arrived at the house of Redmond’s friend in Hannibal, who was a p a rty to th e soheme. A n alleged justice of the ] on the scene, and, after as! lady if she knew h er companic she simply bowed her head, he pronounced them man and wife. •^T^s!=! O yster immediately and indignantly left the house, and returned to school a few hours later, where sh© continued her studies day after ,day until about one y e a r after, when she g raduated -with h igh honors. She returned to her Lagrange home and entered Bocie^ there as an accomplished young lady. . Her experience -with Redmond was a thing of the past, and she seldom thought of it. One day she m et Hm ay Offlrtor, a dashing yoimg Pennsylvanian, who was visiting a t Lagrange. Both were smitten a t first sight, and their period o f eotuiship Was o f short duration. A fter their marriage Mr. and Mrs. Oerter came to Cumbwiand county. Pa., to live, and th© young husband, who had plenty of cash, decided to build a handsome residence for his p retty wife. During ttie tim e ocenided in its erection the young couple en g a g ^ qtutfters a t Har^ risburg, and lived there happily andl quietly until one d ay Mrs. Oerter, upon entering h er bedroom, found a note upon her bed sum moning her to room 17, whero a gentleman desired to have aoonversatioQ w ith her. When the Husband keturned to the hotel in the ereaiing his wife informed him of the cir- lie IndigiMatiy ruSbed bito room 17 and ssked its single oooupant if he bad the audacity to send such a note to his Yrffe. The m an's reply was th a t he isent the note, b u t It was sept to h|s own ■wife, and he displayed a m arriage oertifioate in support of h is claim upon the woman. BOLD Hza warn tom , $lJiOQ. Oerter's passionate attitude was a t oooe converted into one of supplication. He Im plored the man, whose nam e was Hedmond, to leave, and not i^use his happiness to be destroyed. F i n ^ y , Redmond left the city w ith $1,000 of Oerter’s cash in his podkets for ha^i^g done so. About tw o months subsequently Bedmond returned to the hotel and informed Oerter that h e didn’t want h is money, buthe- wanted his ■wife. Oerter fu r th e r Implored the man not to cause him trouble, as h e was living happily w ith his ■wlfa Bedmond then consented to . give a pap Oman ai was paid relinquishing his claim upon t leave the country for good $300 for doing so. Oertor cheerfully agreed t ^ bargain and paid over the cash and tool his paper in return. Several Weeks after Bedmond appeared on the scene again and demanded more money. This time, however, Oerter’s attor ney was on hand, who informed Mr. Red mond th a t ho could keep out of prison only by quitting the vicinity, which he was not slow in doing, Mrs. Oerter in the name of Mrs. Redmond a t once filed a petitaon l o r divorce from Bedmond, whom she had not seen from the day of the alleged naarriage' in Haimibal until he appeared a t th e hotel at Harris- In h e r depositions she alleged t h a t she ig norantly submitted to the form of ©r m ar riage ceremony, but did not subsequently confirm the marriage by any a c t o f cohabita/- tion o r otherwise. The divorce ■was granted and Mir. and Mrs. Oerter were again joined in marriage, and now they arc li^ving in their n ew home in one of the loveliest spots in the Cumber land valley, and are perfectly happy.—Cor, KeW York Joum ah Som e tliln s A b o u t th e Drahk In childhood and youth, too, the is IWOperly capable of a m u c h j ^ amount of work than in a d u lt years.
