Jennings-F
A pleasant event in the social circle
Of Monday, was the marriage of Miss
Maude Jennings, of Gdlfport, neice
Of Mr.. Walter Sampson, of the ILLUS
Jewelry Co., of this city, and Mr.. T.
M. Fortner, an enterprising young
business man, of Gulfport, which &C.
CURED at the home of Mr.. and Mrs.
Walter Sampson, on Elizabeth avenue.
The fact that it was in many ways a
surprise throws an added charm
about it to the lovers of romance.
Mr.. .Fortner came here few days
ago, to see his mother, who is the
guest of her daughter, Mrs. w. H.
Jennings, on Newman street, where
Mr.. and Mrs. Jennings are boarding
Miss Maud Jennings, after short
visit to her brother, on Newman
street was enjoying the hospitality of
Mr.. and Mrs. Walter Sampson, with
whom she spent last winter, during
which time she made many friends,
especially among the members of the
First Baptist Church, where she rend-
cred valued service in the choir.
Mr.. Fortner decided it would not
be the part of wisdom to return alone,
so the young couple were quietly mar.
ried at s p. m, in the presence of a
few friends, Dr. A. F. Watkins, pas
tor of the Main Street Methodist
Church officiating.
Mr.. and Mrs. Fortner accompanied
by the formers mother, left this
morning for their fture home in Gulf
port.
