"Mr. and Mrs. j. o. Gillespie, whose
marriage took place in Louisville, KY,
some ten days ago, have returned to
Gulfport and are receiving the con-
gratulations of their numerous friends.
They are registered for the present at
the Great Southern and are accom-
panied by Mrs. Gillespies little daugh-
ter, Nancy. Admitting friends who
were advised of the somewhat unex-
pected arrival home of Mr. and Mrs.
Gillespie gave them very enthusiast
tic welcome last night at the Great
Southern. Securing the services Of
the Great Southern orchestra a bevy
of maids, matrons and men who knew
Mr.. Gillespie of old,made their way
to the Gillespie apartments and a
gladstone serenade took place followed
by handshaking and very pleasant
little social time afterward."
The news of Mr.. Gillespie's mar
riage will be of much interest here,
where he is well-known both in the
business and social world.
