quiet little village is kept alive with actual
occurrences in that line, and rumors of
others of which nothing positive can be as
certained, but which are occupying the at
tention of the natives Prominent among
the actual ones we may mention the mar
riage of one of our most popular young
ladies, Miss May G. Bryan, and Mr.. Jacob
Furnish. The ceremony took place at

church at this place, Elder w. w. Dor
man being the officiating minister The
