Miss Marion Fay Whitaker, Of this
city. The marriage will take place.
Dec. 8, and only the immediate friends
will be present. They will leave for

and will be at home after Jan. Ist, at
GAINESVILLE, Va.
The courtship was extremely roman
tic. Two years ago Mr.. Crudup saw
Miss Whitaker's picture in the Courier
Journal, and being much struck with
its beauty and with the fact that they
were both named Fay, he began a
correspondence which ripened into
love. While Miss Whitaker was attend,
ing the Centennial this summer, they
met for the first time at the house Of a
friend, and shortly afterward he visited
her here, from which their engage
ment followed. Miss Whitaker is the
third daughter of Mr.. w. H. Witaker,
of this city, and is universally admired
for her beauty, modesty and gentle
ness. and is IN the truest sease wo-
manly and loveable.

will be remembered by some of the
citizens of this place, that, on that
September day in 1876 when he came
tie town then upon the eve Of leaving,
that he had his large revolver strapped
to his side as his protector in time Of
emergency upon the long journey that
he was about to make.
When he left for his western home
he was then an old man and many Of
his relatives thought i, very foolish

earthly existance and was asked how
many years longer he expected to live
than if he remained in this country, to
