I’ve had this clipping for some time and thought I would share
it today. The last line in this wedding announcements cracks me up and I can’t
help but wonder what the couple thought when they say the announcement in their
local paper.
Oakridge Indcator: “George
Smith (Little George) and
Birdie Byrd (nee Penny) were
married this morning in Central
hotel, Jackson, by Fred Weltecke,
Esq. The groom is a substantial
farmer about 60 years of age and
lives at Daisy. The bride is a
daughter of John Penny and is
about thirty years her husband’s
junior. Both are experienced
sailors on the matrimonial sea.”
Clipping from Jackson Herald, Jackson,
MO April 1907
