united in marriage by Rev. j. II. Earle,
at the lattcr's residence in Savannah
Township, on Sunday last. There was
touch of delightful romance in the
affair i'll which parental objection was
thwarted by two stout and determined |
hearts. The groom is n worthy and |
popular young man of this city, who
holds quite responsible position with
the firm Of }. ii. We'll & Co., and the
bride is one of Hartwcll's fairest and
lovclcst daughters. Our best wishes
attend the happy couple in their mo-
mcntOuS venture.
