county, on Tuesday, evening, Dec.
Gath. Tie bride lS<s psstty, bjaek-
eyed daughter cf Mr. and Mrs. 8. N.
Bailey, Of 2 1-2 miles south OF Key
tesviIls. Her marriage MAS quite
surprise to her parents, who knew
that young Mcdonald had been
waiting on Miss BETTE, but it was
supposed they were only COED
friends. Cupid, however, 10 shy in
the capsrs be cuts, and fond parents
often wot not of the love that en-
twines young hearts. About
month ago Miss Bailey went to Stur-
geon to visit her sister, and while
there lisked her fate with the man of
her choice, which has rather shocked
her parents and her mother especial
ly is inclined to be rslsntle and un-
forgiving. But the COURIER hopes
the blessings of the brides father
and mother will SOON be pronounced
upon their daughters matrimonial
venture, and that the old adage,
"alPs well that ends well, may again
b. verified.
