A. J. Fish, at the residence of the bride's father, Mr. Wm. Courtney, 647 North Union street. The above furnishes the sequel to a rather romantic courtship between these youthful lovers. Readers of the Times will remember that about a month ago Miss Courtney created quite a sensation by running away from home. A diligent search by the anxious father was rewarded by finding his daughter at the home of her lover in Van Wert. He compelled her to return home with him, and because of her youth attempted to break the attachemtn. Finding their loving ardor would not cool, he yesterday accompanied his prospective young son-in-law to Judge Lindemann's office, where a license was procured. Last night at 8:30, the boy and girl were made man and wife, in the presence of a small assembly of friends. At present they will make their home with Mr. Courtney, and young Allen will learn the bricklayer's trade with his new father. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ OH-Old-News ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ NewspaperAbstracts.com - Finding our ancestors in the news!
