News of the Week as Tersely Told by the
Society Editor---

       Who should get married but our own preacher boy, Willie Holloway, on February 12th to Miss Nellie Dewberry.  We were not surprised for gentle breezes were constantly coming our way, and then you know boys will marry.  A visi(tor) to the little is convincing evidence of the wonderful love bestowed upon this bride.  As we cross the threshold, an(d) pass on, every where do we see a touch given by the hand of affection.  The pretty and useful presents speak in no uncertain terms of the esteem in which the young couple are held by their many friends.  We extend our hand with the greatest feeling of love and friendship, and a wish that your happiness may increased with years if God so wills it.
