| Text | Elison Fly of Verona and Miss Florence Thomas of Monett have surprised their many friends by announcing that they were married at the home of the bride's sister, Mrs. Emory Smith, on Wednesday evening, Feb 15, 1912. The ceremony was solemnized by Rev. W. M. Wainwright of Monett in the presence of Mr. and Mrs. Emery Smith. The happy couple managed to keep their marriage unknown from their many friends by the bride accepting a position in a millinery store at Fairview, Newton County and the groom by going to Tulsa, Okla. Mrs. Fly is the accomplished daughter of Mr. and Mrs. D. R. Thomas and is popular among her many associates in this part of the county. She is very prominent both religious and social circles. Mr. Fly is a son of Rev. and Mrs. C. A. Fly and is known as a successful business man. He is a young man of ambition and admired by a host of friends. The happy couple left Monett Sunday morning for Garden City, Kan., to reside. |
