Atlanta constitutional
During the holidays of last week the
little town of Talbotton was visited by a l
couple, composed of one gentleman and |
lady, for the purpose of getting married. |
About 10 o'clock they entered our eff |
cient ordinary's office and made their |
business known, and at once Mr.. r. Fl. |
Leonard made them imam and wife, |
After the ceremony they at once pro-
ceeded to their conveyance, one-horse !
wagon, and partook of their food, which |
they had prepared for the occasion. Dur
ing their stay of about an hour, the town
was attracted by their afectionate love
to one another. 1t was an enjoyable oc-
casion, and the young and old enjoyed
hearty laugh. Seeing that their animal
was not hitched to the vehicle they oc-
cupied, some of our kind young men
rendered their services and finally got
them off. As they started the lady raised
from her rosy cheeks large veil and
threw her arms around her husband, and
he Immediately let 60 the reins that
guided the animal, and such another
kissing and hugging never was seen in
an uproar Of laughter that the large
number of guests at the Thornton house,
ladies and all, were attracted, and soon
the large portico was lined with people
full of laugh, but that did not stop tho
newly married couple.

| A romantic story is told here about a
newly married couple that will bear re-
\ peating. A wealthy young Englishman,
named Henry Clifford, met at Niagara
Falls, young English lady, daughter
of agentleman named Thomas Bell, who
had been brought from England to
America by her mother and brother to
escape the opportunities Of Mr. Clifford.
The mother and father preferred very
wealthy and very aged person for hus-
band for their daughter. The brother
sided with his sister, and when the lover
arrived at Niagara he was taken in hand
by the brother. The result was an elope-
ment and marriage. The young pair
went on to New York, and thence took
the steamer to Florida. Mr.. Clifford
bought an orange farm on the Indian
river. Mrs. Bell, with her son, arrived
here recently and found her daughter
and son-in-law at the hotel. For time
, there was a prospect of a lively scene.
But the young mans whats the use,
: motherT' made it all right. Daughter
2 and husband were forgiven. All four
! are going to the orange farm on Indian
: river next week.
