Record Shows License
Was Issued May 11..
Judge A. G. Harris, ordinary of Hen
ry county, said today that the records
in his office at McDonough show that
a marriage license was issued to Wil
liam Lee Popham and Maude Miller
Estes on May 11. 1912, and that he
marired them the same day. He said
at .the time they requested that In
keep the wedding" a secret.
There Is a discrepancy In the date
of the marriage as given to The Geor
gian by Rev. Popham and the ordinary.
Rev. Popham said the wedding was
May 4. while Judge Harris says the
record shows the license was Issued
May 11. However, Rev. I'oplia.m ap
parently was so excited by his arrest
that he probably forgot lite exact date
of the ceremony.
