A singular double marriage occurred,
on the 18th inst, at tho residence OF
Capt. II. y. Wilkes, of Marshall county,
on which cccasion his two Oldest daugh-
tiers merged into married life. The par
ties in full arc as follows: Mr.. J. ID.
Calvert to Miss Matte Wilkes, and Mr..
Jonas Kellman to Miss Duck Wilkes.
The attendants we're Mr.. Isaac Jones
and Miss Mamie Woods, and Mr.. l.. A.
Woods and Miss Mamie Bryant. The
crowd was exceedingly large, and the
scene and ceremony were 80 solemn as
to extOrt tears from several. Probably
the most remarkable feature in the mar
riage was the diversity of religious to-
nets as maintained by the parties. One
OF the brides is Methodist, while the
other is a Cumberland Presbyterian
one Of the bridegrcoms is Campbellite,
and the other of the old Baptist persua-
sion. Truly religious union. Now to
cap the climax, and to compromise in the
matter, Rev. w. r. ussery, Of Column
bla, WAS chosen to sOlemnize the rite of
rnatrimony between the diverse parties,
being Missionary Baptist.
