 Hospital Employees Marry. A romance came to light at the State Hospital for Nervous Diseases, Little l Rock, when theannouncementw was made of the secret marriage of the atten- dants on the evening of June g. The principals were MT. B. F. Greene and Miss Dorcas Bryan. The wedding oc- cured at the county court house, and was performed by Justice T. w. Will son, in the presence of Deputy Clerk H. o. Vogler and one or two others as witnesses. The marriage was kept secret because under the laws governing the institution, it is not permissible to em- ploy married attendants. Soon after the wedding MT, Greene left and se cured a place in the state insane asy- lum at Parsans, Kas. Mrs. Greene left for the same place to join him, as the law permits the employment of mar ried persons at the Parsons hospital. Mrs. Greene's home is at Blocton, near Birmingham, Ala, and she came to Little Rock a year ago to accept Q place in the asylum. Mir Greene came from Chattahoochee, Fla, about six months ago, and also became an at tendant. They had never met before but soon a mutual attachment deyel- oped and on June they were married.
