Jackson Argus – Week of May 28, 1897
Peterson – McQueen

Secretly Married

The following from the Macon Telegraph will be interesting to Jackson people 
because it relates to a young lady who visited this place last winter as the 
guest of Miss Myrtle Pound:

Tifton, Ga.  May 25           A sensation was caused this morning when it 
leaked out that Dr. N. Peterson and Miss Edna McQueen had been secretly married 
last Sunday night about 10 o’clock by Rev. C. E. Crawley, the Methodist 
minister, the ceremony taking place at the Methodist church, Justice E. E. 
Youmans witnessing the ceremony.

Miss McQueen is from Nashville, Tenn., and was employed as a teacher by 
Professor J. H. O’Quinn, the principal of the Tifton Institute, some time last 
year and has given satisfaction as a teacher and has made scores of friends.  
She is a beautiful cultured and attractive young lady.

Dr. Peterson graduated from the Louisville Medical College several years ago, 
standing high in his class, and now enjoys a large practice.  It was not the 
intention of the couple that their friends should know of their marriage until 
fall of the year, but in some mysterious way it leaked out.
