TOLBERT-PARRUM NUPTIALS

Last Wednesday at noon, the friends and acquaintances of Miss Pearlie Tolbert and Mr. Zedekiah Parrum were pleasantly surprised by the happy culmination of their romance in matrimony. The marriage of this popular young couple was quite unexpected. Miss Tolbert was attired in a simple travelling costume and is one of Lane County's most beautiful and charming examples of young womanhood, while Mr. Parrum is a prominent railroad man who played a leading part in the construction of the new Lane County Farmers' and Lumbermen's Railroad. May the Voice that Breathed o'er Eden never cease to wake to harmonious minstrelsy that divine tie of tenderness and yearning that writes across the firmament of this charming couple in letters of glorious emblazonry, that magic vocable, "LOVE." Now is the time to subscribe.

It must be stated here in defence of the editor's eloquence that this last phrase did not really belong in the wedding notice. The printer's devil accidentally mixed it in when he made up the form.
