Came From Chicago to Get A Good Hoosier Wedding Knot.

Miss Hazel Green, a trim looking little miss who stated to the license clerk that she was a bookkeeper, and Mr. Roy Dame, an equally nice looking young man, who stated that he was a machin, Ist, were granted a marriage license this Friday morning and were married at noon at the Presbyterian manse, Rev. J. C. Parrett performing the ceremony. The couple assigned no reason for leaving the fcity to be married and no questions were asked them except by a reporter at the depot, whose suspicions were aroused when he observed the extreme gallantry of the young man to his companion. He asked if they had come to visit here and they both said “No”. He then asked if they came on business and he said “No”, while she blushed just a litle bit, as though she imagined getting married was more or less a matter of business. With a marriage knot tied in proper Hoosier style Mr. and Mrs. Dame returned to Chicago on an afternoon train.
