Middle Ga. Argus – Week of November 24, 1891
Elder – Lindsay

Married, at the residence of the bride’s father, November 10th Miss Leila Elder 
to Mr. M. A. Lindsay.  Miss Leila is a charming young lady, the eldest daughter 
of Mr. And Mrs. W. A. Elder Jr.  She is possessed of many beautiful 
accomplishments and fine traits of womanhood.  She was an ornament of society, 
but she shone most conspicuously, and adored most beautifully her home circle.  
Never was there a more dutiful daughter or more affectionate and loving 
sister.  Mr. Lindsay is too well known in Butts county to need an 
introduction.  Perhaps the most popular man in the whole county.  As Passenger 
Agent of I. S. & F. R. R. and Florida excursion fame he has endeared himself to 
all they kindness, affable and genial maters.

The marriage ceremony was performed by Mr. Tumlin a solemn and impressive 
manner.

The bride was attired in a lovely dress of cream albatross in princess style 
with flowing train.  The groom in conventional black.

After partaking of an elegant repast the wedding gown was changed for a 
handsome traveling suit and “The two hearts that beat as one” went on their 
bridal tour to Cincinnati, Chicago and other points of interest.

They were the recipients of many gifts useful and ornamental

The ceremony occurred at 4 o’clock p.m.  The parlors were beautifully lighted 
which gave a soft glow and mellow radiance.

As the bride was leaving the room she tossed back her handsome bouquet, which 
was eagerly scrambled for, as the fortunate scratcher was to be the next 
bride.  Miss Minnie Parham was the winner.

The host of friends of Mr. And Mrs. Lindsay wish for them long life , health, 
wealth and happiness.
