MARRIED

At Farmington, Thursday February 23, 1882, Mr. James H. Fore of Clark County, Mo., and Miss Kate C. Barnett.

Miss Barnett is a daughter of J. Z Barnett, proprietor of the Farmington elevator, and sister of our former townsman J. B. Barnett. She is a highly accomplished young lady, and deservedly popular among her numerous friends and acquaintances.

Mr. Fore is one of the substantial and popular citizens and farmers of Clark Co. and for years the correspondent of the Clark County papers. He is a man that is fond of good "square meals" and knows where to go to get them. He is highly esteemed by all who know him, and is well worthy of the prize he has drawn.

The ceremony was performed by Rev. James Welch, who had the honor of solemnizing the marriages of
all of Barnett's children, seven in number.
