LOVERS ELOPE. Last Monday night at twelve o'clock C.C. Mansfield awoke C.H. Cantrell and told him he wanted a team, hack and driver to go to Hobart. Cantrell expressed his readiness to go, and Mansfield told him where to drive to when he was in readiness, saying there would be another passenger. Cantrell was soon on the spot designated by Mr. Mansfield and found in his company Miss Lillie, the seventeen year old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W.H. Maupin of this place. Without so much as an explanation Mr. Manfield's truck was placed in the hack, and the two lovers and the driver got in the hack and started toward Mountain Park. They expected to go to Lawton, but one of Mr. Cantrell's horses became sick, at the park, and he turned the lovers over to the mail hack that runs from there to Hobart. At that place they expected to have the nuptial knot tied, and from there go to Dunlap, Tenn. Mr. Mansfield's old home. At this writing- Wednesday night no word that we can ascertain can be had from them.....
