A Romantic Marriage
A Wealthy Young Heiress Weds a Blacksmith
The announcement printed in The Star last night of the marriage of Miss Annie C. Cammack to Arlington L. Hardesty was received with considerable astonishment, for it is doubtful if even her most intimate friends know that Miss Cammack contemplated any such step as marriage. The man of her choice was a young blacksmith who has worked for some years past as a horse shoer in a little shop near Mr. Cammack's handsome home, just beyond the entrance to Soldiers' Home. Miss Cammack or Mrs. Hardesty is the daughter of Mr. John Cammack, a wealthy retired florist, who has lived for years in a handsome residence on 7th Street extended. The bride, who is the only heiress to his means, is also supposed to be wealthy in her own right, for her mother and her uncle both left her handsome sums.
Mrs. Hardesty is well known in Washington, where her beauty and her accomplishments have won for her much attention. She is about nineteen years of age, a blonde, tall and with fine figure and is always most immaculately and stylishly gowned. Many people know her by sight who do not known her personally, for on the avenue or at the theater her appearance is always a striking one. It is now known that the young couple quietly slipped over to Baltimore last Friday and were married by Rev. Walter C. Clapp. Saturday they returned to this city and Sunday the young bride went home, but the fact that she was married was not discovered until Tuesday. When the fact was discovered the young couple took up their residence at the groom's lodgings.

Heir Refuses Million; Publicity Not Worth It
Miss Anna S. Cammack, Daughter of Millionaire, Will Not Contest Will
Has Worked Nine Years for $660 a Year and Will Continue
Heir apparent under the law to $1,000,000; heir, in fact, by her father's will to $50,000; refusing to contest that document and content and determined to continue her labors, as for nine years heretofore, as a $660 per annum Government clerk, the attitude assumed by Miss Anna S. Cammack, daughter of the late Washington millionaire, John Cammack, is, perhaps, without parallel in the history of the local courts or departments.
