Right there he stopped, scratched his official head, and said the scriptures must be fulfilled. Straightway he took a boat for Proctorville, where at 9:15 a.m. at the bride’s residence, J.W. SAYRE and Miss Fannie MARKS were made one, ‘Squire I.W. OLLUM officiating.
John left for Huntington, West Va. to take the 10:55 train for Ironton, to be in his official capacity in the Courtroom, Monday morning, but before going he showed great nervous excitement. He breakfasted at the Metropolitan hotel, and, on leaving, was careful to get a better hat than his own. The mistake was not discovered until about the time of his departure. It was too late to correct the mistake. So, Mr. Editor, if he has a difference in his countenance, it is not all due to his getting married, for the hat has something to do with it. Mr. SAYRE has won a pearl of a great prize in Miss MARKS. She is one of our best young ladies with a kind and amiable disposition.
