Romantic Wedding of the Daughter of Orrin J. Crane.
Marriage at Conneaut of Miss Lottie M. Crane and Mr. Homer L.
Smith - A Broken Engagement in Which a Theatrical Manager of
New York Figured - A Memorial Day Wedding Postponed Owing to the
Wife's Ill Health.
The marriage of a Cleveland girl took
place in Conneaut at 8'o'clock on the evening of June 4. It
was surrounded by some very romantic features and will be of
especial interest to people on the West side, where the lady was
born and reared.
When the Seventh regiment, O. V. I., marched out of
Cleveland destined to enact so noble a part in the civil war that
ravaged the country a quarter of a century ago Orrin J. Crane
marched with it, in command of company A. At the battle of
Ringgold, Nov. 27, 1863, he had been promoted to be lieutenant
colonel of his regiment. In that battle he was shot down and
killed by a rifle ball through the head a few minutes after his
superior officer, Col. Creighton fell a martyr to the cause
of his country.
About the time of his death his daughter Lottie
was born. Mrs. Crane continued her residence on the
West side where her husband had left her and reared her daughter
there. The latter grew up to womanhood greatly beloved for
many estimable qualities by her companions and neighboring friends.
Of late years Miss Crane, with some of her
friends, has been in the habit of spending part of her summers in
Conneaut, where she met Mr. Homer Lake Smith, a prosperous
merchant in that thriving little town and at the head of a large dry
goods establishment. Acquaintanceship ripened into affection
and and engagement was formed. It was one of those unlooked
for things in life for friends of Miss Crane had previously
anticipated that she would reside further away from home in the
metropolis, as it was at one time an engagement was generally
supposed to exist between her and a Mr. Myron Rice of New
York, the manager of the theater there. This engagement must
have been terminated by the lady, however, for that Mr. Smith
was destined to be the happy man was evidenced by the fact that on
May 29 Mr. J. W. Stinchcombe of this city took out a marriage
license for H. L. Smith and Lottie M. Crane. The
issuance of the license from the probate court here was a necessity
as Ohio law provides that a license must be taken out in the county
where the lady lives. Nevertheless, Miss Crane was in
Conneaut and the marriage took place there. The bride had for
some time been in ill health and indeed is in a very serious
condition even now, it is said. The marriage, which was
probably at first intended for Memorial day as a fitting occasion of
the wedding of the daughter of a brave officer who was killed in
action, was deferred until some time when she was able to go
through the ceremony. In the meantime no definite date was set
as no one likes a deferred marriage day, no matter how little
superstitious he may be.
Mr. Smith has fitted up a beautiful new home in
Conneaut for his bride and there they will live. A trip to
Europe will be take at once for the restoration of Mrs. Smith's
health. "Bon voyage" will be the speeding of a great many
Cleveland friends. |

SEEKS DIVORCE AND WILL BE EXAMINED REGARDING SANITY
ASHTABULA, Ohio, Feb. 26. - John Castler of
Conneaut got into more trouble than he knew when he blithely entered
court in the pursuit of a divorce. His first session on the
witness stand ended when Judge J. W. Roberts sent him to jail
for contempt of court. The grand jury thereupon indicted him for
perjury, who which charge he was arranged today. Now Castler's
counsel has asked that a medical examination be made to ascertain
whether Castler is insane. Castler therefore faces
a chance of a permanent retirement from the world, originating in the
fact that he could not get along with his wife. |
