M. c. Shakespeare, u farmer residing in the
northwestern part of the county, aud possibly
distant relative of tho renowned bard of that
name, called on the Rev. j. II. Richey, in this
city. at two o'clock yesterday afternoon, aud
said
"Parson, do you know all tho ladies in
Waco2'
NO replied Mr.. Richoy, 81 don't know
half of them"
"Do you know a widow lady named Mrs.
Ward who is employed in tho family of DIR.
McGTegorP
al have not said Mr. Richcy, the
honor Of her acquaintance; but why do you
ask %
WELL" said Mr. Shakespeare, 81 don't know
her either; never saw her in my life but
thinking as maybe you knew all about her. l
thought I'd come and ask you. I'm thinking
about marrying her"
81 should think" remarked Mr.. Rchcy.
that you would refer that matter to the lady
herself"
Il WILL so will, snid Mr.. s., "but not until
have first seen Dr. McGrcgor," aud so saying.
he turned aud walked away"
And three.quarters of an hour later in the
day Mr. Shakespeare again stood in the pres
ence of Mr. Rchey.
"Tvo seen DIR. McGregor," said he, "and ho
says he's known the lady sixteen years, and
Richey promise that he would wait in his
office little WHILE" Mr.. S. walked of, saying
he would "call OH the lady"
And he did. TITS all right, parson," said he,
on walking into Mr.. Rchey's office less than an
hour afterward. I've seen the lady and she
says it's all right. Quick as l can get a pair Of
licenses want you to 20 up aud tie the knot"
At twenty minutes past four o'clock NJ. G.
Shakespeare was married to Mrs. Nancy Ward,
Rev. j. II. Rchey officiating, aud the newly
welded pair left at once Tor their rural home.
Mr. Shakespeare has q good farm and is well
able to make bis wife com nlortable. Mrs. Shake
speare is n good housekeepcr and is otherwise
well qualified to make him good wife, Two
hours and twenty minutes, dating from the
moment the would be bridcgroom's first inqui-
ries were made is the precise timo occupied in
tho accomplishment of this alliance. The orig
inal Shakespeare never imagined anything

being:
