Christopher a. Buckley the Democratic

A short telegram received last night an
nounced that MIR. Buckley was married at

to Miss Annie Hurley, young lady whom

a visit to Mr. Rainey at his home, 1109
Golden Gate avenue. elected the facts. Mr..
Raney, when questioned about the matter.
said:
THE NEWS BY WIRE.
THE first announcement that had that
Mr.. Buckley was married was in telegram
received by me at my office tonight. l
have known for two weeks that it was the
intention of Mr.. Buckley to marry Miss
Hurley, but l had no definite information
S to the day on which it was to take place.
l met Mr.. Buckley in New York two
weeks ago to-day, and at his request
1 wired Miss Hurley, asking her to meet
him at the depot on his arrival at Boston.
AT that time l can say positively there was
no engagement of marriage existing be-
tween Mr.. Buckley and Miss II uIley, but it
was my understanding that the form er's
object in going to Boston was to make an
offer of his hand to the lady in question.
HE WAS ACCEPTED.
Before my departure for the East l
learned that Mr.. Buckley had been accepted
and that tile wedding would take place at
an early day. | presume that this event
was uppernost in his mind when he lett
home for the East few weeks ago, and the
matter is not surprise to those nearest
him.
Ever since the death of his late wife Mr.
Buckley has felt the need Of such COM
panion. As you know, he is peculiarly
situated, and no man needs a wife more
than he. Not only in his social relations
did lie feel the need, but in his financial
and political affairs as well. His blindness
made it almost indispensable that he should
have the help of vile. Feeling this, he
had made up his mind before leaving San
Francisco that if Miss Hurley would con-
sent he would lead her 20 tile altar. How
well he succeeded with his suit the result
shows"
Mrs. Rainey was greatly pleased over the
news of the wedding and spoke in highest
terms Of Mr.. Buckley's bride.
A CHARMING BRIDE.
81 have just returned" she said, from a
visit to Boston, where l saw great deal
OF Miss Hurley, ana can assure you
that she is charming lady. She is about
20 years of age and is very pretty. Her
parents are well-to-do people and Miss
Hurley was given liberal education. She
is talented and accomplished and will make
model wife. Iregard Mr.. Buckley as a man
possessed of good judgment in all things.
but no act of his life shows it more plainly
than his choice of wife. Mr.. Buckley has
known her eighteen or nineteen years, and
has always had high regard for her
wOmanly qualities. He met her often while
she was in San Francisco two years ago on
a visit, and often referred to her in terms of
praise.
HIS RETURN,
when will they come to San Francisco?
Well. l cannot say quite positively. 1t was
Mir. Buckley's intention to return about the
10th OF July, but it is highly probable that
he will hasten his departure from the East.
| can assure his friends that they will find
his wife all that could be desired"
