Update for events from Anne of the Island.

A friend of Philippa in Bolingbroke, Alonzo became one of Phil's many suitors interested in marrying her. After considering her own personal extravagance, Phil decided it was necessary that she would have to marry a rich man and narrowed her choices down to Alonzo and Alec, the only two beaux she deemed wealthy and handsome enough to satisfy her conditions for a husband. However, during her studies at Redmond College, Phil met Jonas Blake and married him instead.

In 1890 he wasn't married.
