The Standing.
Farrell Southard,

The many friends of Miss Theresa F
Farrell and Roy II. Southland, Jr., OF
this city were quite surprised to learn
few days ago that they have beer
married since Aug. 2, but the arrange
ments were so quietly made that nc
one knew of the happy event. The
ceremony took place on the above
named date at st. Mary's parsonage
Rev. Father McCabe officiating
Charles Meigs of this city accompanied
the groom, while Miss Nellie Carlin, al
so of this city, attended the Bride.
Both Mr.. and Mrs. Southland re-
turned to their duties the next day
and their friends had no idea of the
marriage until last Saturday, when
they became suspicious from the fact
that Mrs. Southland was wearing an
additional ring. Not even the parents
of the bride or groom knew of the
event until that time.
Both young people are well known
and many friends will extend hearty
congratulations. Mrs. Southland is a
former Lewiston girl, but has been
bool,ke eper at the H. G. Barker
Clothing store for the past two years
where she has made many friends
Mr.. Southard is associated with his
father, Roy H. Southland, Sr., IN con-
tract work. They will reside on Ban
gOr street.

fective Warrants Officers De Facto.

ate Justice Pird in the Hancock county

year and that such officers shall hold
their Offices during the ensuing year
and until others shall be elected and
qualified in their stead, an ordinance
| CT the mayor and aldermen providing
that such officers shall hold office dur
! ing good behavior is repugnant to the
Charter and void.
Where the returns upon the warrants
for an election of mayor and aldermen
are defective but the persons chosen
mayor and aldermen at such election
proceed to organize and to perform
their respective duties as such, under
color of title and claim of right, with
the acquicscence of the citizens, they
are officers de facto.
