The Daily Dispatch: February 7, 1861., [Electronic resource], Penalty for marrying a minor. (search)
Penalty for marrying a minor.
--In April, 1859, George Fairfield and Elizabeth Bobinson were joined in wedlock by Alderman C. W. Lewis, of Elizabeth, Allegheny county, Pa., and have since lived together as man and wife.
Abraham Robinson, father of the lady, recently sued the Alderman for marrying a minor, she being at that time "just 19 years old." The jury found a verdict for the plaintiff in the full amount of the penalty, which is 50 pounds, Pennsylvania currency, or $133,33.
