Hammond of Griffin will officiate. The marriage will be a quite affair, and at the same [time] quite a surprise to the friends of both parties. After the ceremony and the congratulations of their well wishing friends, Dr. Owen will return to Hollonville with his beautiful bride where a royal reception will be given them at the Dr.’s elegant home. These two people are too well known for [many] comments to be necessary. The bride is well known for her beauty and many other personal charms that have made her so popular among her associates. While the groom is a very prominent physician of this county and also one of the counties most popular and influential citizens. May they both live long and enjoy life’s richest blessings.
