JONES -
HENRY
WEDDING
~~~~~
An Arkansas
editor reports a wedding in his town as follows:
"Miss Jennie Jones and Rob Henry were married
last night at the Jones mansion. The bride is the daughter of our Constable
Jones who has made a good officer and will undoubtedly be reelected next
spring. He offsets a fine horse for sale in another column. The groom runs a
grocery store on Main street and is a good patron of our ad columns and has got
a new line of bargains this week. All summer he has paid 2 cents more for
butter than any other store in town. The happy couple left on the 10
o'clock train for Milwaukee to visit the bride's uncle who is reported to have
lots of money and Bright's disease. Bob certainly has an eye for
business."
