The many friends of MR. F.M. ROSENGRANT, of Garden Grove, and MISS ETTA M. PARIS, of Leon, will be greatly surprised to learn that they were quietly married last Monday evening at 7 o'clock, Rev. Waller officiating. The bride's costume was a beautiful cream colored lansdown trimmed in lace and ribbon to match and she carried a beautiful bouquet of white lilies. The groom wore a conventional suit of black.

The bride is the second daughter of MR. and MRS. W.H. PARIS, of near Leon, and is a young lady of many noble qualities, being one of Decatur County's most popular school teachers and will be greatly missed in that line of work.

The groom is a refined young man, and resides near Garden Grove. May peace and happiness go with them in their journey through life is the wish of the writer.
