out Sunday that Charles Wright. who
was soldier in the late war. had
been secretly married at jefferson
vile by Magistrate Hause TO Miss Ad-
die Lamasters. Wright was recently
divorced from his first wife and
thereby hangs a tale. Years ago he
was engaged to marry mis- present help
mate, but the course of love did not
run smoothly and they had a quarrel.
Miss Mamie Lancaster. a sister OF
Adde'S, appeared on the scene as a
peacemaker. Wright was so charmed
with the intermediary that he at once
began wooing that knew no failure.
The other sister was forgot.
Finally he was successful and mar
ried Mamie. They lived together I'M
til Wright joined the army. When he
returned from Cuba his wife was wait
ing for him and they seemed to be
perfectly happy. Suddenly squall
arose and a suit for divorce was fled
by the husband. 1t was granted and
week later he was joined in the tie
that binds to his original sweetheart.
What caused this remarkable sequel
can not be learned. Strange to say.
the sisters have always remained good
friends Wright when he applied for
enlistment in the army, was refused.
