Spending Honeymoon IN Lex
ingtOn

Sundays Richmond Times-Dis-
patch: Mr.. and Mrs. Edmund Rar-
dolph Preston are spending their
honeymoon quietly in Lexington,
Va, at the home of Mrs. Thomes
l.. Preston on Washington street.
Young Mrs. Preston could find
no spot in Virginia more entirely
filled with memories of her Illus
trious grandfather, General Stone
wall Jackson, than Lexington,
where bis life was spent previous
to the War between the States,
where he is buried, and where lis
former home has been purchased
as a men orial hospital by the Lex
ington Chapter, United Daughters
Of the Confederacy.
AS Mrs. Preston has been
brought up in Charlotte, N. c.,
and educated there and in Wash.
ington, d. c., it seems fortunate
that the Confederate reunion of
last June, and her present visit,
should come in quick succession
and enable her to realize how large
a claim Visginia has on her through
her descent from its great Con-
federate leader.
Mr.. Preston is a son of the late
Rev. John A. Preston, d. d., and
grandson of the late Colonel
John T. L. Preston of Lexington.
He is a graduate with b. A. and
B. l.. degrees, of Washington and
Lee Universlty, and is rost highly
thought of in Charlotte, n. c.,
where he and his bride will na\ e
their home with Mrs. Stonewall
Jackson.
