marry an Atlanta couple at the court
house, and he told the person who
asked him, "I'm not going in there and
marry that couple, l am tired of mar
rying people for nothing let SONS one
else marry them" Well, the Ordinary
performed the ceremony, and the gem
teel-looking fellow handed him $40
bill. The party went back and told the

the Ordinary got. He was perfectly
astounded, and exclaimed: "Just my

have gone and married them, and got
nothing"
