Jasper County Democrat, Volume 4, Number 40, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 11 January 1902 — CORRESPONDENTS WED. [ARTICLE]
CORRESPONDENTS WED.
Mr. William R. Foster, son of Mr. and Mrs. A. Foster of Hanging Grove tp., and Miss Mable McDonald, daughter of James McDonald of McCoysburg, were united in marriage Wednesday morning at the home of the officiating clergyman,Rev. J. L. Brady. The marriage seems to have been something in the nature of an elopement. The groom is 21 and the bride 18, and the bride’s parents, we understand, objected to the marriage on account of the youth of the couple. A peculiarity of the marriage was the fact that the groom was The Democrat’s McCoysburg correspondent, and the bride acted in like capacity for the Journal. We are not advised as to the future plans of the young couple, but unite with their large circle of friends in extending hearty congratulations. In the language of Rip Van Winkle, may they live long and prosper.
