THE sCHEME ORKED
of the Valley, to Miss Mary Tur-
ner, of Madison County, Mo.

NJ. Waugh has been a resident of
Beaver Dam Valley for about eight
years, during which time he has cor
responded with Miss Mary Turner, a
worthy lady of Madison county. Var
ious dates had been set for the we'd
ding, but the consent of all concern
ed could not be had, thus the mar
riage was postponed. On Sept. 18th
MIR. Waugh received the following dis
patch:
"Meet me in Fredericktown."
He at once left for Mexico where
he took the first east bound passen-
ger train, arriving at Fredericktown
Sunday at 1 O'Clock and on account
of this being the Lords day a mar
riage license could not be procured.
Here and at this hour we imagine
we see a few old people in private
council around the corner, discuss
ing the question as to "Who are
your John says his heart would
palpitate SO he could not tell wheth-
er it was his heart beating or the dis
tant church bell sounding a death
knell. Thinking thine to be travel
ing westward they took the train for
Pennington, a distance of 20 miles,
where, on Monday at 0:3O O'Clock,
the nuptial knot was tied, arriving
| at Mexico at 2 O'Clock Tuesday
morning.
The reception which took place at
the residence of Mr.. and Mrs. l.. K.
Crockett was beyond doubt a rare
treat. The neighbors and friends of
Mr.. Waugh, hearing of the event, all
came in with baskets well filed
with the dainties Of the great Valley,
that her ladies know wellhow to pre-
pare. One hundred persons here
met to give the bride and groom a
greeting which was quite a surprise
to the happy pair, which made them
feel o~verjoyed, as they were sur
rounded by friends on every side.
While at supper we noticed the
| table decorations were flowers of al
most every variety. While we were in
sympathy with the table, which
groaned with the dainties prepared,
surely we did our utmost to give ii
relief but of no avail.
Mr.. and Mrs. L. X. Crockett, as
sisted by Mr.. and Mrs. Irwin Calhoun
and Mr.. and Mrs. T. M. Ford, made
it very pleasant for all and saw that
no one was neglected while dining.
Mr.. James Crockett, assisted by
Miss Mary Reagan, in behalf of the
many friends of the happy pair, pre-.
sented them with a beautiful china
set Of sixty pieces, a handsome
dresser, a lovely parlor lamp and SC
in currency. After the presentation
Mr.. Waugh responded as follows:
My FRIENDS: There is a time
when the mind can paralyze the ton.
que; there are thoughts too deep fol
u~tterance, and nthis occasion / am
subjected to those feelings, but amid
all and on this occasion for tokens
of regard | can surely say, MANY
thanks.n
The happy couple win go to house.
