Congressman Alksn 10 Wed.

An interesting announcement con-
cerning Hon. Wyatt Aiken, repre-
sentative in Congress of the Third
District, appears in the papers OF
Louisville, Ky. Mr.. Aiken is to be
married to Miss Adair Monroe Tay-
lor, of Louisville. There was a
rumor to this effect in Washington
just after the adjournment of Con-
gress, but now the positive announce
ment has been made by the yonngg
lady's brother, Thos. III. Taylor, of
Louisville. The wedding will take
place in the First Presbyterian
church at Louisville AT an early date.
Miss Taylor is we'll known in Ken
tucky, being from one of the old
Kentucky families which, before the
war, was wealthy. She is the
youngest daughter of Gen. Thomas
Hart Taylor, who lived for many
years in Frankfort, KY, and was a
general in the Confederate cavalry.
He and his wife, who was Miss Adair
Monroe, both died about six years
ago, since which time Miss Taylor
has lived with relatives in New
Orleans and Washington. She ia
thus an orphan and she comes to Mr..
Aiken without any treasure except
herself, which, from all reports, ia
one of priceless value, for every
where she is known she is reputed to
be q lovely Southern girl.
Mr.. Aiken met Miss Taylor in
Washington last winter, where she
spent the season with her aunt.
Mr.. Aiken, while he was in Ander-
son the other day, coufided to some
of his friends that he was engaged
and would be married sooli, but gave
them TO understand that the date
had not been definitely settled
