ChristleY-Grimes.

Last Tuesday was a day of many
attractions to Columbians; two we'd
dings, and the celebration of gold
en- wedding, crowding the afternoon.
At the same hour that the Gresham
Rea marriage rites were being per-
formed at the Cumberland church,
the wedding vows of Mr.. b. Christ
ley and Miss Lula Grimes were con-
summated. 1t was a quiet but
pretty home wedding, the ceremony
taking place at the residence of the
brides father, Mr.. James Grimes,
in South Columbia. The house was
prettily decorated for the occasion,
and a number of friends of the con-
tracing parties were present. Rev.
j. F. Tinnon, of Lynnville, tied the
nuptial knot. The bride was becom-
ingly dressed in travelling attire, and
left, with her husband, on the north
bound train for Nashville to spend
the honeymoon. She is a most ex-
cellent young lady; intelligent, do
nestle, modest, and retiring, and
withal is good christian. She has
welded wisely; her husband being
noble, worthy young man, and is
doing business for the Peters & Com
pany firm in South Columbia. Best
wishes follow them.

The SAD, Found the Mare.

Some one stole Mr.. Gabe Houser's
mare last week, and after riding her
to the country, turned her into a
grass lot and left her. Mr.. Houser
made diligent inquiry, but could get
no trace of the mare. Last Friday
he inserted a small ad in the HER
AID, and of course that did the
work. The ad was read Saturday,
