Miss Brownlow Elopes

Article quoted from Barton County Democrat (Kansas), 1903: 

Miss Brownlow Elopes with a Liveryman

Bristol, Tenn., Sept. 8.—Miss Cloyetta Brownlow, daughter of Congressman W. P. Brownlow, of Jonesboro, Tenn., eloped with Mark E. Pritchett, a liveryman, of Jonesboro, and they were married at Bristol. The attentions of Pritchett to Miss Brownlow are said to have been opposed by the congressman, hence the elopement. The young lady was a favorite in Washington social circles the past season.
