HERE'S ROMANCE
Trigg County Man Gets
Bride "Sight Unseen"

Edwardsville, ILL.,, Aug. 9.-Mrs.
William P. Cunningham is a mail
order bride. She slected her husband
from matrimonial catalogue, cor
responded with him for three years
and married him the first day she
saw him.
She was Miss Addison Roper, near
Edwardsville. When her brother,
William Roper, a creamery manager
received by mail a catalogue of
"elligibles" issued by a Chicago mat
rimonial agency he thought some Of
the advertisements were funny and
took it home for the family to laugh
over. Miss Roper sat up late that
night to read it. Before retiring she
wrote letter and mailed it.
The missive went to w. p. Cum
bingham at Cadiz., KY. 1t brought a
prompt reply and photograph of him
who described himself as a wealthy
tobacco grower. Miss Roper sent
her picture and after that exchanged
hletters twice a week.
A week ago a tall man in broad
brimmed hat rang the bell at the
Roper home. She hurried to the
door and the affectionate greeting
which she gave the stranger almost
took the breath of father and broth
er who were just leaving the house.
This, " she said, ''is Mr.. Cunning
ham my fiance. We are going to be
married to day."
They were, and are now in Ken
lucky.
