CARTER CRAWFORD
Handsome Sheriff Of Citrus County
Succumbs to the Inevitable


Well, we'll, well, Sheriff George r.
Carter is at last benedict. For sew
eral weeks past Miss Mamie Craw-
ford, "a young lady of charming per-
sonality, from Chattanooga, has been
here on visit to her aunt, Mrs. A. II.
Bethany. Miss Crawford and Mr..
Carter met, and it was a case of love
at first sight. He 3t once laid siege
to her heart and was a persistent
lover, finally, winning her. On Thurs
day last she started for home, and Mr..
Carter accompanied her. When they
reached Palatka he prevailed upon her
to get married then and there, and they
repaired to the Arlington Hotel, where
the ceremony was performed. They
then visited st. Augustine and jack
sonville, and at the latter place they
separated, the bride continuing her
journey home on a visit to her mother,
and the groom returning to Inverness
to resume his official duties, which
were pressing, as circuit court was in
session. Sheriff Carter is one Of the
most popular men in Citrus county,
and needs no recommendation from
us. His bride is a very popular young
lady in her home city, handsome AMI
of rare accomplishments, and will add
grace to the social circles of our town.
Mrs. Carter will return to Inverness
in a few days accompanied by her
mother and will be heartily welcomed
here.-Citrus County Chronicle.

Allen Stevens, one Of the most sue
cessful farmers and truckers Of Spar,
was in town today and said his neigh
bors and friends were so insistent on
his running for county commissioner
from the fifth district that they have
almost gotten the notion into his head
TO make the race against Mr.. j. w.
Crosby, of Citra. If Allen comes out
he will no doubt have strong follow
ing and make creditable race. His
candidacy would give competition IN
this district as Mr.. Crosby, the other
candidate, Is man and citizen Citra
