EVANSVILLE JOURNAL: Several days ago John D. Irby and Miss Louisa Miller, two young people of Madison, Ind., concluded to defy the objections of Mr. Irby's guardian and Miss Miller's father, and get married. They accordingly eloped and started in search of some tender-hearted clerk and a license. In pursuit of these they arrived here yesterday and stepping ashore from the packet ran into the arms of Capt. Nat. Williams, of the steamer Parole, who is the guardian of the groom. Naturally enough there was dire consternation at the meeting, on the part of the young couple, who feared they would be prevented from carrying out their object. Capt. Williams, however, told them that Miss Miller's father had told him he would prefer the marriage after she had left home in her lover's company, and he proposed to have it duly celebrated. The party went up to the Clerk's office, and Rev. William Telter, of the Pennsylvania Street, M.E. Church, was summoned. He shortly appeared, the license was issued, and in quick time the two were joined in holy wedlock. The elopement ended rather strangely, but everybody is satisfied and happy.
