next winter. By the way, Rufus has
lost, right here in Pittsboro, his

their return Sunday night. They will
live in Sanford. The bride is a fine
looking young woman and should
make her husband a good wife. Her j
friends wish her well, but the next j
time she runs off to get married she
should be generous enough to leave
some hint —and this is a hint to
other girls who should play the same
trick.
