On Saturday afternoon at the home of the groom's sister, MRS. LAURA ARTT, in East Leon, occurred a happy wedding, the contracting parties being MR. SAMUEL GRAYSON and MISS JENNIE O. MOORE, the ceremony being performed by Elder Stevens, Pastor of the Christian Church. Only the immediate families of the contracting parties were present.

After the ceremony the happy couple drove to Decatur City, where a bounteous supper was served at the home of Squire W.D. MOORE to the entire GRAYSON family. On Monday MR. and MRS. GRAYSON departed for Des Moines where they are attending the State Fair.

The groom is the popular young steward at the County Farm, one of the steady and progressive young farmers of Decatur County. The bride is the daughter of MRS. PERLINE MOORE, of this city, a handsome young lady and one who has many friends.

MR. and MRS. GRAYSON will reside at the County Farm.

The Reporter joins their many friends in extending congratulations to this worthy young couple.
