Here's where we get the opportun-
) ity to have our little say. We're glad
to tell about it the merriest we'd
ding, the jolliest time that we have
been able to chronicle yet. It's the
marriage OF Clara E Shelley to Will
lam d Welsh at the home of the
brides parents, Mr.. and Mrs. H. B.
Shelley west of town. The event trans
pired Wednesday eve. Miss Bertha
Shelley played the wedding march
which ushered the young people in.
Under bower of roses they took
their station and in few simple
words, Rev. Fleming united them for
life. 1t was beautiful ceremony and
the beginning Of a most joyous life for
the twain. After the rites an elaborate
wedding feast of several courses, such
as only Mrs. Shelley knows how to
prepare, was served. Clara has been
reared to womanhood in Gray. She is
one of those fortunate people so gifted
that she makes friends Of everyone she
meets. She has been teacher in the
J schools of the county for number of
years and her marked success in this
work shows all the palmer her splen-
did disposition and ability at endear-
ing herself in the hearts of her assoc
iates. Mr.. Welsh ah that sounds too
strange to us. We'll call him Just
Will is also a Gray product, being
the son ofO. S. Welsh, the prominent
farmer north west of town. Will is a
model young man, upright and
} ..good" in the fullest sense of the
word He has been one OF our m ost
popular young men and we are proud
) of him. Mr.. and Mrs. Welsh will take
up their new life on the old Craney
farm recently vacated by Chas. Ross
