I iqas married Sunday, Nov. 8, at 7 o'clock p. m , to Miw Fidelia Halev, in the city of Lillington. Harnett county. It was quite a new business to me, and my friends have persuaded me to give the details of my trip to the pub lie, so here it goes: I left Raleigh on Saturday last to go to my mother's in Harnett county to get married, as I knew the old lady would like to witness the matrimonial scene in her old age. I had employed a man to secure license and have them in read iness for me. On my journey I met an old coloredJ woman whom I had known for years. I told her that I was going to get married, and she dropped her head and drowned her wrinkled face in tears and told me of the "cross eyed bear.'' I soon reached my place of destination and called for my license which I thought was waiting for me. but I was informed that the party I had employed not being able to qual ify to age, did not get it. I then re membered well my old colored friend aud the "cross eyed bear.'' Then fur Lillington I was bound. I bad wait ed 37 years and 1 determined to wait no longer. After a long journey over sand hills, and at the hour of sunset, I reached the place where I hoped to be soon made a married man. It was my pleasure to meet Mr. 8 A. Salmon, one of Lillington s largest merchants. He gave me a welcome grip and seemed to realize my situa tion and invited me to his home at Col. Shaw's. He was kind enough to secure my license and had all ar rangements made at Col. Shaw's for the marriage, which was to take plaoe the following Sunday morning. The beautiful and talented daugh ters of Col. Shaw and visiting lady friends, and quite a number of young men, gave us a musicals which we very much enjoyed, and wish again to tender our thanks to those who rendered it. Sunday morning at the hour of 7 tbe J. P. came, and you bet I was ready. No time was lost and he soon wound up his remarks with: "Con sider yourselves man and wife." I again remembered the "cross eyed bear." Miss Lina Shaw, assisted by Mr. S A. Salmon, gave us some vcal and instrumental music which was highly enjoyed. As I was a long ways from home I left early. I bid friends goodbye and started for home. At 8 p. m. we reached the "City of Oaks" aud found friends waiting for us, and all exclaimed, "Are you married?" and my answer being yes, made me think of the "cross eyed bear." Very respectfully, .
