Article Text:
Hylon L. SKINNER and Annie B. CURRY, daughter of the warden of the state prison at Eddyville, Ky., have been married under peculiar circumstances. SKINNER was received in 1892 for seven years for killing Martin BIGWOOD, and came near dying in prison. The warden's daughter nursed him, and interceded after his recovery with Gov. BROWN for a pardon, after which the couple eloped to St. Louis. The warden and Mrs. CURRY have forgiven them, and they will return to Kentucky.
