Jackson Argus – Week of July 23, 1897
McLean – Crawford

A SECRET MARRIAGE

News was received from Abbeville last night of a marriage in which a young man 
of Macon plays a prominent part.

The report was current I that town yesterday that on the night of July 5th Miss 
Cullin Crawford, the beautiful and accomplished daughter of Dr. and Mrs. A. H. 
Crawford of Abbeville, was secretly married to Mr. Elvin McLean, who is 
operator at the Southern cotton yards in Macon.


It is said that only three friends of the couple witnessed the ceremony which 
made them husband and wife, and that the affair having been found out, Mr. 
McLean will go to claim his bride at once, and receive the blessings of the 
parents now instead of waiting until September, as was his original intentior.

Both these young people have a host of friends who will not only congratulate 
them, but  wish them a long life of happiness.

The above is from the Macon Telegraph of the 14th inst and is a pleasant 
surprise to the many friends of Elvin McLean in Jackson.   He went from here to 
Macon and his father and mother are among our most respected citizens.

The Argus offers best wishes.
