Six Thousand weddings in One Lit.
tie Town.

From an article in the Washington,
Pa, Examiner we condense the following
on the question of marriages in West
Alexander.
Squire Mayes, the famous magistrate
who ties the connubial knots in this lit
tie town, is singular character. He is
q happy, merry man, sixty years old, and
assumed his position as Justice of the
Pesce IN 1862, and has been regularly
elected every year since. In his sixteen
years of office ne has married 1858
couples, and fees received for his services
in this direction have amounted to 81, 100
Couples whom he hiss married have hall
ed from Pennsylvania, West Virgins,
Kentucky, Louisiana, Missouri, Wash
lngton, ID. c., and Vermont. He has
been called upon at sill hours of the day
and night by all sorts Of people, who, re-
CURED his aid. The 'SeuIre's father also
was kept pretty busy in this business
and sphced $50 couples during
his term of Office, which extended over
thirty-fve years. The total number Of
marriages in West Alexander by the vs.
rious clergymen and magistrates foot up
5000 This is big showing for one little
place, and is due to the fact that no
licenses are required in Pennsylvania and
no questions are asked by the officiating
clergyman and officer of the law.
