Middle Ga. Argus – Week of November 8, 1894
Jolly – Ham

We merely mentioned the marriage last week, of Mr. Wm. Jolly and Miss Menla 
Ham.  Mr. Jolly is too well known in our town to need any commendation or 
notice at our hands, and to simply state that he is one among the very best of 
our young farmers, is sufficient, for everybody knows him.  Mr. Jolly is a 
direct descendant from such ancestors as Sandford, the arithmetic man and the 
Whitfields, and therefore has royal blood in his veins.  Miss Menla is of the 
best families in the land.  Her father, our next Tax man, is known by all our 
people.  Her mother is daughter of “Uncle Billie McMichael” as everybody called 
him, and while Dr. Gardner was pronouncing the ceremony we noticed a life sized 
picture of Miss Menla’s grandfather, “Uncle Billie”, overlooking the solemn 
proceedings, whose lips almost seemed to move an approbation of the noble step 
his grandchild was taking.  Immediately after the ceremony Mr. Jolly and his 
bride drove to the home of Mr. Joe Jolly for supper, and then boarded the train 
for Macon and other places on a tour.  We tender congratulations.
