Sheriff SmallWOOd'S Daughter EIOpes

A marriage license was granted
in Washington Monday to Mr..
Thomas NJ. Reed, of Bluemont,
and Miss Nellie G. SmaIlwood, of
Berryville, the ceremony being
performed by Rev. j. +. Irvine.
The wedding was very much of a
surprise to Sheriff Smallwood, and
he was given no opportunity to
object to the match (even if he had
wanted toy.
Sunday evening at a late hour the
bride-to-be was at home, but when
the family arose Monday morning
the bird had flown.
After short honeymoon the
happy couple will undoubtedly
return for the parental forgiveness.
The COURIER extends best wishes
and congratulations.

a view to compromising any action
for damages that he might contem-

A Correction.

In our last issue we stated that
the Berryville Turnpike Company
would have the inspection and re-
port of MIR. j. +. Grciner, of the
Baltimore & Ohio Railroad, before
final acceptance of the Opequon
Bridge which had been criticised
by a Winchester paper.
We have since learned that we
were in error, and gladly correct
any impression which NAV have
been formed from that article.
1t seems that Mr.. Greiner. who
Is one of the most eminent engi-
neers in the railway world, and is
assistant chief engineer to the
Baltimore & Ohio Railroad Com
pany, was employed by the Berry
vile Turnpike Company to exam
Inc the plans submitted by the diff
ferent bidders on the Opeooon
Bridge. He rendered his opinion
on November 80, last, and has had
no knowledge or connection with
the work since December 5, last,
. We had been informed by the
Turnpike officials that Mr.. Greiner
had passed upon the plans and
specifications, and we presumed
upon that fact when we said he
would inspect the finished work be-
fore its acceptance.
