BEALL-JOHNSON
Nanni», Ga., July 5. —Please al
low me spice in your columns to
correct the mistake iu regards to
the sensational wedding at Little
Row, Gordon county,
Mr. John L. Beall and Miss Lu
la Johnson were secretly married
on the night of last Nov. 20. instead
of March as you was informed.
The contracing parties are from
the first families m the county
and the greatest objection seemed
to have been on account of their
age. Mr. Beall is 20 and Miss John
son 17. Os course, it naturally
created a sensation when the se
cret was revealed to the public on
Friday afternoon.
Mr. Beall and his happy wife
met Saturday afternoon and went
to West Union Baptist church af
ter which he carried her to his
home.
Mr. Beall says if he had not
been where he could see his young
wife daily he would have been one
of the most miserable boys on
earth.
