A TYPOGRAPHICAL ERROR.
The Times said yesterday that a mar
riage license had been issued in Wash

The family up 10 yesterday afternoon had
not heard from their daughter on the sub
ject and they think II a mistake. The
article was taken from the Washington
Post.
There was a license granted that day
TO Mr.. Edward NJ Wev and Miss Lille
Byrd. II is probable that from the sim
ilarity OF names this was a Topographic
cal error in the Post.
