HoBsON's MARRIAGE
Unites Two of the Oldest Families
in America.

Birmingham, Ala. May 9.-Ksen
social interest has been aroused In
this state over the announcement
that Capt. Richmond p Hobson. he
70 of the Merrimac, is to wed Miss
Grizelda Houston Hull of New York
on May %. The marriage will unite
two very prominent families, the
members of which have figured con
picuously in American history. Capt
IIobson's ancestors. the Hobsons. the
Pearsons, the Moreheads the Whites
and the Williams, Joined in helping
TO lay the foundations of North Caro-
lima, Tennessee and Alabama. With
them were the Folks, the Houstons
the Longs, the Joneses and the Ea-
ions, from whom Miss Hull is de-
acended on her mothers side, her
mother having been-oiMiss buoia
Houston. daughter of Judge Russell
Houston of Kentucky. Miss Hull is
also a great niece of the late Gov.
George S. Houston of Alabama, and
Is related to President James X
Polk of Tennessee. On her fathers
side she is descended from the ia
nous families of Hulls,. Strongs,
Farnhams and Doolitths of New
England. Miss Hull's father, George
II. Hull, is prominent business man
on Wall street, New York.
Capt. Hobson says that the we'd
ding will be very quiet affair be-
cause of the recent death of his
father, the late Judge j. NJ. Hobson
Of Greensboro, Ala. II is a singular
fact that Governor Houston of this
state, a great uncle of Hobson's bride
elect, appointed Capt Hobson's faith
er to a vacancy on the circuit court
bench of Alabama during Governor
Houston's term as governor in the
early seventies.
Capt. Hobson's friends do not pre-
tend to disguise the fact that the

stay. They say that for the present
he will continue his lectures, bu,
next year will take an active part in
Alabama politics. There is some talk
of him running for governor, but It
is regarded as more probable that he
will again run for congress in the
sixth district, where he made a close
race last year against Congressman
]. II Bankhead It is not improbable
that Col Bankhead will offer for the
United States senate, and perhaps
leave a clean field to Capt. Hobson
for his seat in the house OF repre-
sentatlyes.
