SOON WILL Be MARRIED.

"Of all the actions of a mans
life, his marriage does least
concern other people; yet of all
the actions of our life it is the
most meddled with by other
people. Such, no doubt will
be the diction of G. N. Harrison,
when he sees that The News

his contemplated marriage as
an abstract and brief chronicle
of current events on the map of

being harbinger of glad tidings
to our friends is novelty that

So in announcing the coming
event of this truly worthy
young mans marriage, we do so
with all due respect to the said
young mans modesty of this
reverred act of mems lives.
