STAFFORD - PARKER
On last Sunday morning, our senior was aroused from his refreshing slumbers to answer a knock at his door. On opening
it he found a young friend -- in fact two young friends -- accompanied by other friends, awaiting admittance. Their
wishes were soon made known, and Squire Prestwood was summond to unite two loving hearts. It is unnecessary to
state that this was done in the Squire's best style, and after receiving the congratulations of those present,
Mr. George Stafford and bride, nee Miss Adella Parker, returned to their home with "two souls with but a single
thought, two hearts that beat as one."
