From Thursdays Daily.
Wednesday, Feb. Sd, at high
noon, at Gallipolis, Rev. d Argent
pronounced the words that united
in the bonds of wedlock Mr. JAS.
B. Shiyely, of Apple Grove, this
county, and Miss Emma Pollock,
of the firm of G. b. Hanson & Go.
The marriage was soIemnized at
the home of Mrs. Capt. John Hol-
loway, ON Front street, in the pres
ence of the immediate relatives and
few particular friends. TWAS a
quiet wedding and the ceremony
was the impressive words prescr1b-
ed by the Presbyterian church that
bind together man and wife in sa-
cred vows of love and fealty. Inn
mediately after the ceremony they
left via Point Pleasant, over theK.
& NJ, for Apple Grove. where a
handsomely furnished house await
their arrival. They go to house
keeping at once and make that
place their permanent home.
The Gallipolis Journal in speak
ing of the affair says:
The bride is the third daughter
of the late Thomas and Elizabeth
Pollock, of Bush's Mill. She came
to this city in 1885 and accepted a
position in the dry goods store of
Montgomery & Smith, subse-
quently with Hanson & Williams,
e. A. Jack, of Huntington, and @.
A. Smith & Bros. By her perse-
verance and industry she saved
quite a little sum, which two years
ago she used to become member
of the firm of @. b. Hanson & Co.
She was Jealous worker and by
her many admirable traits won a
legion of friends. Until Saturday
last she retained her interest in
that establishment, when it was
disposed of to q. b. Hanson, Miss
Maud Summers and Sidney Cow
den, who have always been identi-
fed with that firm and viii strive
to maintain it's present good repu-
tation as one of our leading dry
goods stores. Mr.. Shivley is a
young man of sterliug habits and
worthy of the estimable lady he
has captured. His vocation is that
of postal clerk and in this capacity
he has served on the Ohio River
Railroad ever since President
Cleveland's first administration.
May their future be bright is the
wish of the journal.
