In my heart 'tis June,
Shadows flee the sunshine,
All the world’s in tune.

THE CORDELE DISPATCH
ROMANCE RESULTS IN MARRIAGE
" LIEUT. RALPH RULE, WASHING.
TON, D. C., AND MISS BARTLETT
OF CRISP COUNTY.
Her picture, love at long distance,
courtship and engagement by mail,
a trip across several States to claim
the girl he loved but whom he had
never seen, and finally marriage,
constitutes the matrimonial affair of
Lieutenant Ralph B. Rule, Fort
Meade, Maryland, as one of the
strangest and most romantic love
stories ever told. Yesterday after
noon Lieutenant Rule Dbecame the
husband of Miss Gladys Bartlett,
daughter of J. T. Bartlett of Crisp
county, and this is how it happened:
Some months ago Lieut. Rule ac
cidentaly came in possession of a pic
ture of Miss Bartlett through a
friend on a visit at Fort Meade. He
immediately fell in love with the pic
ture, or rathep tke pretty girl which
the picture represented. He obtained
her address and wrote her a letter.
She answered it, little thinking at
the time that marriage would ever re
sult from such a correspondence. He
sent his picture and she fell in love
with the picture, or rather the hand
some young man which the picture
represerted. Then, for month after
month, it was a case of loving by
mail, the affair taking much of the
truth of the Bihlical teaching, ‘“bles
sed is he who believeth, yet hath not
seen.” And though they had never
geen each other and many miles
separated them, there could have
been no more striking demonstration
of the love axiom, “two minds with
but a single thought, two hearts that
beat as omne.” |
And, so the story ruus, they be
came engaged and the groom set
about to arrange plans when he
should claim his bride. Securing’ a
fifteen-day furlough from IFort Meade
he arrived in Cordele yesterday and
secured an automobile to take him
to the Bartlett home, eleven miles
southeast of Cordele. He found no
difficulty in securing the consent of
the young woman to have the mar
ringe ceremony performed at once
and little time necessary to convince
her parents that he was in dead
earnest and a young man of splendid
qualities and gentlemanly conduct.
When the couple came to the of
fice of Judge W. P. Fleming, Ordi
nary, they found the Judge out of
town, but after considerable diffi
culty :u;cure(l a marriage license
through P.. H. Greene, clerk of the
super#o)r court, and bis permission
for the ceremony to take place in his
office. ) !
The .superior court clerk happens
to be a lover of the things of nature
and beautiful flowers and he has a

Pitts arrived in Cordele last night with

he defeated several strong opponents.

at the corner of 17th {Avenue and
Tenth street, in the residence which Mr.
Pitss purchased some months ago from
My, D. W, Spires. The heartiest conarat
ulations and best wishes of their many
friends are extended them.
