Messner- Myers

  Chaperoned by her brother, Walter, Miss Elizabeth Myers, the 
attractive young daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Asbury S. Myers, of 
Washington avenue, left Sunday ostensibly for a sight seeing trip to 
Pittsburg.  There, however, by pre-arrangement, she met Percy Messner, 
a former Bellwood young man, but now of Akron, O.  Giving her brother 
the slip, they hied away to a minister and were united in marriage.  
Word of the elopement was received at the Myers home yesterday.  Both 
young people have hosts of friends who wish for them a happy married 
life.  The bride was formerly employed as clerk in the Reiland store, 
Pennsylvania avenue, and later for H. M. Walker, on Tenth street.  She 
is a young lady of exceptional charms.  They will reside in Akron.
