Flat Creek.
Flat Creek is all joyous this
week. Wedding bells are ringing
glad tidings to many, for while our
older inhabitants have been think
ing of the past our younger ones
are matrimonially inclined, and
Cupid, the cunning little fellow,
has been shooting his shafts pro-
miscuously and they have pierced
the hearts of several. Several darts
have proved fatal, and then there
are others who are mortally wound
ed and ere many moons will have
Joined the numerous band of bene-
diets and matrons. Since time be-
gan he has and through all ages
will Cupid play hide and seek with
young and tender hearts, and few
men are brave enough to not sue
cumb to dimpled cheeks and saucy
smiles. Nor is it meet for woman
to 50 harden her heart as to say
No" to time who pleads on Bonded
knee so eloquently for his happiness
at her HANDS. So on Flat Greek
instead of having two souls with
but single thought We have four
whose destinies are linked together
and who are now passing and will
forever pass through life in paths
strewn with roses, whose pleasures
will be multiplied and whose sor.
rows lessened by sympathetic life
partners. Those so fortunately and
appropriately joined together were
Robert Oakley, whose moral equal
is not easily found ,-son of that
clever gentleman and good citizen
John Oaklay,-and Miss Ruth
Darneil, youngest daughter of ev-
erybody's friend,-good- natured.
jolly "Billie" Darnell. than whom
there is no better man. Miss Ruth
is one of that class of young ladies
so fast becoming extinct,-pless-
ant, bright, domestic and altogeth-
er charming, and is certainly an
appropriate help-mate to her wor-
thv young husband; and be in
I whom she puts,nrr hap
piness is worthy the Prize lie has
won. Bob's morality, business IN
tegrity and perfect manhood is not
to be questioned, but instead is to
be initiated. So to Mr.. and Mrs.
Robt. Oakley We tip our beaver,
and may your pathway through
life be strewn with roses, and the
sweetest perfumes of new-mown
hay greet you as together you glide
pleasantly down the river of life.
and old age still find you enjoying
the honeymoon as you are today.
Also was welded William Gopher,
eldest son of that prince of gentle
men John Gopher. 1t is useless to
speak at length of Will Gopher, as
everybody knows honest, upright
John Gopher, and Will is chip off
of the same old block-good habits,
industrious and worthy. The fair
young bride he has won was Miss
Harriet, oldest daughter of our
neighbor and esteemed friend BENZ.
Dragoo. Mr.. Dragoo was formerly
from Mason Co. and is a whole
souled, accommodating gentleman
of the old school. strictly honest
and splendid citizen. Miss Har-
riett, now Mrs. Gopher. has for the
last two years been the acknow-
lodged belle Of Flat Creek-pretty
and captivating and is splendid
type of our charming kentucky
girls. She has made for herself
many friends, who join us in wish
ing that the clouds overshadowing
their pathway may ever be lined
with silver lining and that love,
prosperity and happiness be their
constant companions through life.
