"Fairfield Ledger Weekly", October 14, 1869, Marriages

HOOPS---MOUNT--- Oct. 12, 1969, [sic] in Buchanan tp., at the house of the bride’s parents, by Rev. Orville O. SHELTON, Mr. John HOOPS and Miss Lida MOUNT.

So they go, and joy go with them, as it undoubtedly will; for a better pair seldom commence together the matrimonial voyage. By the above notices it will be seen that our old friend, Mr. Jeddy MOUNT, loses two children or gains two, one or t’other – but in either case, two good men get two good wives, and two good girls get two good husbands, so that the balance is largely in favor of the matrimonial side of the ledger.
