-A QUIET WEDDING.
We clip the following from The Reporter, published at Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio. The groom referred to is a brother of Mr. JAMES of this place:
Rev. SMITH pronounced the words that united two of our favorite young people, Miss Sadie UPSON and George JAMES.
The marriage was celebrated on Tuesday evening last at 8:30, and occurred at the residence of the bride's parents, Julius UPSON and wife, of Fourth St.
It was intended to have a really private wedding, but relatives from a distance arrived just in time to witness the nuptials.
The young couple are well known in town, Mr. JAMES being a member of the American Machine Co., and his wife, for a long time, organist of the Methodist church. Good wishes for the future will be made on all sides.
For the present, their friends will find Mr. JAMES and wife at the home of the groom's parents. (4 Nov 1886)
