MR. D.F. AVERY and MISS EMMA LOE were united in marriage last evening at the home of the bride's mother in south Leon, the ceremony being performed at 8 o'clock by Elder H.H. Hubbell, Pastor of the Christian Church. It was a quiet home wedding, only the relatives being present, but many friends of the contracting parties will extend hearty congratulations. They have both resided in this city for many years and enjoy the friendship of a large circle of friends who wish them every joy. MR. and MRS. AVERY will go housekeeping at once in the groom's cozy home in southwest Leon.
