SAN PEDRO
A Los Angeles Chinaman Marries an Anne rlca n

n Los Angeles Sninoman MoffieS an American n
Girl
SAN PEDRO, Feb. 1.-THE Southern
Pacific train this morning brought to
San Pedro a party of four, Charlie Guey
Chinaman, Mrs. Beaver, her 16-year-
old daughter Rachel, and another
younger daughter, all of Los Angeles
The party hunted up Captain A. P.
sen, who took them out to sea in steam
launch.
AS the Chinaman and girl sat side
by side, not even Joining hands
Captain Olsen asked: Charlie, do you
take this woman to be your wife?" to
which Charlie responded, YES" Then
the girl was asked the same question,
which received an affirmative answer.
The good and kind-hearted captain then
pronounced this ill-mated pair man and
wife, but there was no kissing of the
bride and groom as reported by an eye
witness. The party returned to Los An
geleS on the afternoon train.
Guey is a cook at the Lincoln hotel at
Los Angeles, and it was there he met
his American bride. or course the city
here is somewhat nonplused over the at
fair, but of late it's getting to be d
common thing, these marriages at sea,
but this one caps the climax
There is considerable sentiment on the
streets, and Captain P. A. Olsen did
not get much praise for the part ne
played. There is rumor current that
these parties applied some time ago to
the county clerk. for marriage license,
but were refused, hence the trip here
and the results.
