AIHAMBRAN STILL
TALKS ABOUT THAT
GROTTO GATHERING

Echoes Of the national Prophet
meet continue to sound in the vari-
Gus papers published under the
auspices of the grottoes represent
ed at the convention.
The Alhambran, st. Louis. in its
September issue refers to quick
service rendered to a visitor in
Rock Island by W. K. Clark, route
agent, known as the official guest
greeter.
1t is related that a Prophet
wearing the fez of West Vir-
ginia grotto stepped up to Clark's
desk and remarked: "Yo' sure
can do me favah if you will in
form me as to which l can get nv
favorite brand of chewing tobacco
as All have done looked this heb
town oven and All can't find it
anywhere"
The question was a poser for the
route agent, the Alhambran says,
but the latter did not lose his sense
of direction and referred his in
terrogator to cigar store not far
away.
Ten minutes later the Prophet
returned with a smile on his face
and bulge in his cheek, and am
bling over to Mr.. Clarks desk he
remarked: Brother, All done
heard of express service but All
neveh understood just what il
meant, but All does now, and All
want to thank yo' ALL"

FIRST WEDDING
LICENSE SHOWN
Deputy County Clerk Fred Graf.
lund Preserves Unique Record
Of Early Days.

When Rock Island county was
in it's pioneer days, ornamented
marriage licenses were unknown.
Usually a plain piece of writing pa
per served the purpose. This is
shown by the first marriage license
ever issued in the county, which is
now carefully preserved by Fred
Graflund, deputy county clerk.
James L. Burtis and Angelina
Beardsley appeared before County
Clerk Joseph Conway, July 10, 1888
and applied for the first license
ever issued in the county.
Since then 1888 couples have
followed them to the county clerks
window, but the first license is
still intact. 1t has the appearance
of a piece of ordinary wrapping
paper, but the words which Mr.
Conway wrote are legible. After 3
general salutation to all judges
commissioners and justices in Hi
nois, Mr.. Conway wrote as follows
these are. to license and permit
you to join together in the holy
bonds of matrimony, James l.
Burtis and Miss Angelina Boards.
ley and for so doing this will b.
your justification"
Today, the happy prospective
groom who approaches the mar.
riage license window, receives il
return for his dollar a finely EN-
bossed certificate.
