John RANKINS - crazy marriage
Source: New Richmond Record 27 Dec 1900 p 1
Fearful of spending 20 years in prison and expecting to escape punishment if he took a bride, John Rankins of Crawfordsville married in much haste last Thursday. Several men charged with selling their votes were discussing the matter among themselves and two or three brighter than the rest bent on a practical joke, gave it out that the punishment for selling one’s vote was 20 years in prison. They said that if the accused was a married man, however, he was exempt from imprisonment in order that he might support a wife. Rankins, who was a single man became considerably excited and declared that he knew where he could get a wife on short notice. He secured a license and hastened to the home of a young woman named Bennett, followed by the jokers. The young woman was somewhat surprised but was perfect willing to keep Rankins out of prison. A justice of the peace was secured and the nuptials were celebrated amid great hilarity.

Hubert Rice and his sweetheart, from New Market, Montgomery County, Indiana, planned to surprise their friends by slipping over into this city and getting married, but were themselves shocked when Deputy Clerk Current informed the young man that he could not get a license until he furnished consent from his parents or guardian. Rice said that he was twenty years old, but spoke before he knew the trouble telling the truth about his age would cause him. It did not take him long to properly diagnose the situation, however, and he made some overtures to Mr. Current that surprised the popular deputy. He first suggested that the clerk “mark him up to twenty one,” and this being refused, he said, “I will go into the hall and come in again, and when I get back you be gone and let there be another clerk in your place. I will tell the other man that I am twenty one and that will do the business all right.” Mr. Current informed him that it would be impossible for him to get a license here after having admitted that he was too young, unless he could furnish the necessary consent of parents or guardian. The clerk asked Rice if he did not have to pass through Covington on his way home, and he replied that such was the case, and he and the girl hurried out of the office and made a rush for the Big Four depot to head off the first east bound train that came this way. Such perseverance deserves success.—Danville, (Ill.,) News (*Hubert Rice & Clara Johnson April 21, 1902 in Fountain County marriage records)

A foam-flecked hope over which James E. Rosenbarger of Veedersburg held the lines was driven up panting to the home of County Clerk Hulett about 5 o’clock Sunday. He wanted a license to marry Miss Mary E. Bunnell of Waynetown and he wanted it bad. He was to be married at Waynetown at 7 p.m. and Mr. Hulett kindly consented to issue the license even though it was Sunday. It was then learned that Supt. Zuck was the only man in town who could make affidavit as to the prospective bride’s age. Unfortunately he was out of the city and Mr. Rosenbarger drove sadly back to Waynetown and dismissed the minister and waiting guests. At 4 o’clock Monday he was back to Crawfordsville with the bride’s brother for a witness and the muchly desired document was issued. The friend on whom the groom had depended to get the license Saturday caused all the trouble and delay by failing to perform that duty – Crawfordsville Argus News.
