MARRIED — At the Latham House, on Tuesday last, at 3 o’clock, Mr. Chas. T. BIGGS and Miss Nora OLIVER, Rev. C.W. ROBINSON, officiating.

The couple drove in town in great haste, and on stopping at the hotel, requested the knot tied at once, which was done, thus ending another – the old folks object and the young folks don’t.
