Many OF our young people were in
yited to the wedding of Miss Victoria
Pysell to Mr.. Farley Deal, on Satur-
day last, 9th irst. This youthful
couple was attended as bridesmaid
by Miss Bessie Deal, sister of the
groom, and Mr.. Gay Wheeler as
groomsman. The bride is about sew
enteen and the groom some nineteen
years, the bridesmaid less than six
teen, the groomsman in his eighteenth
year. All the parties are petite in
stature and report says it was one of
the cutest little couples and the most
youthful they had eyer seen united
in the holy bonds of matrimony.
They are all deserved'y popular and
we wish them all the bliss of this life
and more abundant joy in the life to
come. Rev. Manages officiated and
reports a pleasant time and a sump-
tuous feast.
We were glad to meet our brother
in church fellowship on last Sabbath.
Mr.. p. J. Lohr and wife, who has
purchased the Friend farm near town
and he and his good wife will be quite
an acquisition to our little church
and we extend fraternal greetings and
hope they may at all times feel at
home with us and by their presence
cheer the heart of the good pastor.
We were made happy during our
attendance at court by meeting many
friends from different parts of the
county, and more especially glad on
Sabbath night (25th) at the Oakland
Evangelical church in meeting Mrs.
Mitchell, of Pennsylvania, whom
had not seen since we stood at the
death bed of her loving brother, the
late Wifam Hinebaugh, a man
loved living and mourn dead. 1t made
me sad asI looked the audience over
and but seven of all that congrega-
ton of twenty years ago were familiar
to me. Oh, what changes twenty
yeas can make.
But l pause, and say
