Weddings in Mississippi are lively
affairs sometimes. A young fellow
named Hubbard wanted to marry Miss

and mother of the young lady objected, ,
So Hubbard procured double barrelled

ner and his wife we're at work and
blazed away at the old man and missed
him. He then pulled down on the old
lady and wounded her severely. lie
was arrested and carried before JUS
lice of the peace and the old folks
were there to testify against him, just
as the magistrate got ready to proee' d
with the trial Hubbard asked to be al
lpwed to step into an adjoining roon
for moment In there he found Miss
Garner and another justice, and they
were married in double-quick time. The
parents finally relented, the case wa
dismissed and all were happy.
