DAWSON-YOUNG Elopement in Barton

At the Police Station yesterday, George Dawson, who lives on the Hamilton and Port Dover Road, near Ryckman's Corners, was fined $5 for profanity and obscene language towards Henry Young, of the same neighbourhood.

The affair grew out of the elopement on Saturday last of Young's daughter, aged 15, with Dawson's son, aged 21. The young girl is described as small for her age and in appearance not more that twelve years old.

It appears that on Saturday last, Dawson and his son came to this city and procured a marriage licence, giving the usual bonds and making the required affidavits as to age, etc On their arrival home, the elder Dawson jumped out of the carriage, a timber waggon, while the son, with the licence in his pocket, drove on a short distance where the girl was awaiting him at the wayside. She quickly clambered into the waggon and away they two went at break-neck speed down the townline between Barton and Glanford to the residence of a clergyman who married them. They then returned to the paternal roof of Dawson, Sr.

In the meantime Mr. Young and his family, half-distracted at the sudden and mysterious disappearance of their favourite child, were searching high and low for her, not forgetting to look into all the wells and dragging all the fish ponds in the neighbourhood. This dispiriting employment engaged the efforts of themselves and friends all night and until ten o'clock on Sunday morning, when some one discovered the head of Mrs. Dawson, the younger, gracefully resting on the bosom of her husband whose feet protruded through the back window of the tenement of Dawson, the elder.

Enraged, as a fond father naturally would be, Mr. Young, ignorant of the clandestine marriage, rushed into Mr. Dawson’s domicile and ordered his daughter off home. To his astonishment, his once obedient and loving child merely raised her hand and handed him a marriage certificate which she drew from her pocket. The father read it, and then, without a word, half blind with sorrow, and burning with shame, marched out of the house, and went home.

Not so quiet and subdued was Dawson, the elder, who had been chief engineer in the elopement, for so overjoyed was he at the success of his scheme that he immediately fell to and drank up what remained in the jug of whiskey provided for the nuptial cheer. Thus primed, he marched over by the residence of Mr. Young, and taking up a position in the road in front of the house, expended his vocabulary of the abusive in galloping gab. The consequence of this was that he was fined $5 yesterday by Mr. Cahill. Perhaps the end is not yet. (John Dawson and Hannah Adelia Young)
