ELOPEMENT
The Township of Rives, or a portion thereof, is just now considerably excited over an elopement that took place in it's boundaries on Saturday, Feb. 14 (1880). A man named Charles Sackett, a farm hand, about 25, found favor in the eyes of a fair maiden named Alice Kilpatrick, aged nineteen, the daughter of a farmer named Henry Kilpatrick, but was looked upon with decided aversion and disfavor by the parents of the girl, so much so that Sackett was forbidden to visit the home of the girl, and the maid enjoined not to see, think or speak of him. Apparently the two obeyed the parental injunction, and no one knew of their seeing each other, and the old folks thought matters were all right.
Last Saturday night, the father went to sit up with a sick friend. This was the young couple's opportunity, and they improved it. The old gentleman had hardly proceeded on his errand of mercy before the disobedient daughter had packed her nice clothes in a bundle and lowered them from the second story chamber window to the ground below. Then she came down stairs, stepped out and joining her lover, they proceeded to a relative of his where she opened her bundle and arrayed herself for the bridal. The lovers then went forth, and with the far stars shining for their guide, footed it to John Brown's, a justice of the peace of that township. The squire was aroused, and proceeded to make them one, in accordance with the provisions of the statue in such case made and provided, and the work was done up by Brown. The absence of the girl from home was noticed, and the father informed. He immediately went on the war path, and the squire had hardly concluded counting his fee, when the irate parent burst in upon them, furious with anger. But it was no use--the union had been consummated. The couple took a bridal tour on foot to the house of the groom's sister, where they remain, and the father went home and loaded a shot gun, as we are informed, and still nurses his wrath at the outrage practiced on him.

Charles & Alice had one child: Anna. They were later divorced and both remarried. Charles married my greatgrandmother, Sarah L. Striker. - [Mary Lou Sackett]
