On Feb. 18th, Miss Maude |
Reynolds, daughter of Mr.. L. R.
Reynolds, of Roberdel, was mar
ried in Gastonia to Mr.. H j.
Chaffee, of Cleveland, Ohio. Mr..
Chaffee was a soldier at Camp
Greene, and it was in Charlotte
that the young people met. Mr..
Chaffee has returned to Cleve-
land, and Mrs. Chaffee to her
position in the Office of the
Mecklenburg Clerk of Court;
she expects to join her husband
about May LIST. She spent the
weekend at home at Roberdel,
returning to Charlotte Sunday
night.
The following concerning the
marriage is clipped from the
Charlotte Observer of recent
date:
Another Camp Greene romance in
which many in this city and county
will be very specially interested, be-
came known yesterday. This was the
marriage of Miss Maude Reynolds,
clerk in the office of c. c. Moore, clerk
OF the superior court, to Mr.. Howard
Judd Chaffee, of Cleveland, Ohio. The
marriage took place in Gastonia, We'd
nesday, February IL, 1920. 1t was the
intention of the young couple to keep
the marriage a secret for the present.
but friends in Gastonia as well as
Charlotte, learned of the wedding. so
the Charlotte papers are announcing
lit this morning.
"The bride is daughter of Mr.. and
MRS. Linden R. Reynolds, and for two
years has held the position in the
clerks office, and has been so efficient
las to win the admiration of every
member of the Charlotte bar, as we'll
las of the court house officials. And it
has not been her ability alone that
has won the court to her side, but her
beauty. A self-constituted jury long
Isince returned verdict to this effect,
lit being recorded on the docket.
Mr.. Chaffee was at Camp Greene for
about year being stationed at the
Ibase hospital. He is a young man d
lime presence, and fine traits, and is
Iwell established in business. He and
his bride will make their future home
in Cleveland"
