L. C. Hubbard Ek., performed the
ceremony. Just a he hail finished
and congratulate! the !ride and
groom the editor of thi paper, by
request, stepped forward and read a
letter of congratulation from Ml
Margaret T. Matthl?, a sister, in
Monticello, Ark. The letter was a
happy surprise and very appropriate.
An abuudant supper was spread to
which each one paid "hes" enjoyable
respects. Music, dancing and rare
enjoyment foiiowed. We were re
luctantly forced to leave quite early,
and can imagine only how much we
missed by so doing.
But where does the romance come
in ? We understand that the bride
and groom were sweetheart play
mates when children. The tie of
affection knit stronger as childhood
budded into youth, and youth bloom
ed into manhood and womanhood.
But alas.the engagement was broken
by the miscarriage of an important
letter which is now supposed to have
been destroyed in che Clinton post-
office, which was burned about that
time. Thus two loving hearts were
separated for many years, each think
ing the other was untrue. In the
meantime one of the parties had
mairied and become single again.
An accident clears away the mystery
and the happy event last Thursday
evening was the result.
It Is More Than Worth the Money.
The newspaper is a great educator.
