A Happy Affair at Oak Hill, Ohio.

! To the Editor of the Standard:
On Thursday morning. June II, 1885, the bright,
oriental sun rose in his splendor and magnfcence,
emitting his radiant and respondent rays till the
vast expanse of nature seemed smiling with beauty
| and loveliness. The birds twittered and warbled
their matin song of gladness till the whole welkin
seemed filed with their sweet melodious music. As
| the pleasant June morning advanced, the maioriny
of the young ladies and gents of Oak Hill began to
semble at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. W. W. Nor
gan, to witness the union of their daughter Miss
Maggie s.. to Mr.. John Webster Jones, of the above
named place, in the holy bonds of matrimony. When
all the relatives of both bride and groom had also
| sembled, and everything being in readiness, the
young pair marched to the presence of the vast
Der present, and were soemnized in the nuptial tie
| by Rev. Caleb Samson.
After the usual congratulations &C., customary on
such occasions. all repaired to a convenient place to
have group picture taken; the necessary
arrangements had been made, Mr.. Mink took pic
ure Of the group. This picture speaks highly of Mr.
Minx's photographer. This being over, then came
important part of the of well set
table, loaded down with all the eatabes and Injuries
imaginable We would say in connection with this,
that all did ample justice to the many good things,
in partaking freely of them, until their keen appe
titles were fully appeased.
In the evening the newly pair were sere-
naded by the Oak Hill Cornet Band-the Band play
ing some of their finest pieces of music. After a
bountiful repa.t, and more music, all dispersed to
their homes wishing the pair long and happy life,

spent.
