the marriage Of Miss Pauline Peters

Of the Peters family and has often

the handsomest man in Atlanta and
the greatest beau Of his time. He is
now a very successful railroad man
and a wealthy citizen of New York
and Of Garden City, where the fam

I think several Atlanta girl friends
tried to make lace. but none Of them

He is a good story teller, and as win
some as a girl at her debut party.
He has several big houses in Great

and that is the only word to use
royalty. He has a splendid steam
yacht capable Of taking large parties
on long cruises. and no expense is
ever spared to make these parties

Whether the matchmaking mann

OF course, if he should win the
