mr.. sTApLEToN DIED TUESDAY
Valued and Esteemed Resident Of
Webster Dead

A telegram received here yesterday
morning conveyed the sad intelligence
of the death of Mr.. ). f. Stapleton,
which occurred the night previous at
his home in Webster county. Mr..
Stapleton was one of the oldest and
most highly esteemed residents of
Webster, and had resided there the
greater part of his life. He was more
than eighty years of age and the father
of Mr.. James r. Stapleton of Preston,
and of Messrs. George and Lawson
Stapleton, of Americas. He was a
man of strict integrity and high sense
of honor, and no one was held in great
er estimation by the people of his
county. Mr.. George Stapleton, with
Mr., and Mrs. Lawson Stapleton, went
to Preston yesterday to attend the
funeral services,

COUPLE MARRIED BY ROADSIDE
Cupid Again Triumphs Over Parental
Objections.

News has reached the city of quite a
romantic marriage which occurred a
day or two ago in Stewart county. Miss
Ida May Armour, the daughter of Mr..
William Armour, a well-to-do farmer
and merchant, and Mr.. Sam Wood
were the contracting parties. There
was parental objection, and so the two
young people met at an appointed
place half mile or so out of town
They were met by Justice of the
peace and were married on the spot,
the bride-to-be remarking that that
would be the safest plan, as her father
was probably looking for her then and
might come up at any time. Mr..
Wood is popular young farmer of
that community.
