A DOUBLE MARRIAGE.
“The best laid plans of mice and
men aft gang agleo.”
In this particular case, however,
it is meir and women, who had
planned to surprise parents and
friends on Xmas day, but—some
how, some way, a little suspicion
was aroused, (whether from a guil
ty conscience we cannot say.) Any
how, the pesky little telephone
told the tale.
Sunday afternoon two couples
engaged a livery turn-out ostensi
bly to drive about town, and while
the evening away pleasantly, but
instead they made a bee line for
tho Ordinary’s office at Douglas
where they procured marriage li
cense. From there they started,
in search of the next requisite, a
minister, to weld the link, and
finding Rev. Kendrick mnstered
him into service. In his u anal
graceful manner he performed the
ceremony that united them for
life.
The parties to this little romance
are: Miss Bessie Newbern, Brox
ton, and Mr. H. F. Parks, Douglas ;
Miss Claudie Beard, Broxton, and
Mr. Will' Shettleworth, McDon
ongh, Ga. All parties, except the
latter, are well known and highly
esteemed by everybody in this sec
tion, and the Journal, together
with their numerous friends, join
in wishing for them a long, happy
and prosperous journey o’er life’s
rugged road.—Broxton Journal.
THe above notice in the Broxton
paper comes as a pleasant surprise
to the many friends of Miss Beard
and Mr. .Shettlesworth.
Both are splendid young people
of old Henry. The bride has been
in Broxton for some time. She is
the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. G.
B. D. Beard, who reside two miles
north of McDonough, and the
groom resides three miles west of
McDonough.
The Weekly joins their many
friends in best wishes for a long
and prosperous life.
Cheaper Than A Mail Order House.
A well-to-do man in this vicinity
went into the drug store and in
quired the price of snlplinr. “Ten
cents a pound,” said the owner of
the store. “Isn’t that steep?”
asked the customer. “Why, I can
get it from a mail order house
for seven cents.” “Yon can ge‘i it
in hell for nothing,” said Doc,
“and won't have to pay any
freight on it, either.”
