Captain Crissey May Take Steps to Annul His Son’s Marriage

Fairburn, Ga., Oct. 13 – The recent marriage of George Crissey, aged 17 and
Kinnie Matthews, 16 years old, in Atlanta caused a great sensation at their
respective homes when their parents learned of the affair. It was their
intention to keep the marriage a secret, and the bride and groom returned home
and resumed their studies, but before nightfall their parents have learned of
their marriage.

The groom has only recently discarded knee pants, while the general appearance
of both indicate a very youthful age.  George Crissey is the only son of a
retired naval officer who resided in Atlanta several years ago, while the bride
is the eldest daughter of R.P. Matthews, a well-to-do citizen.

Since returning home the youthful couple have been at their respective homes and
their parents have been puzzled to know what course to pursue.  The parents of
the bride decided to extend forgiveness and the girl bride wrote her boy husband
a note telling him all is well and bidding him come.  But it is said that the
parents of the boy are not reconciled and that Captain Crissey many take steps
to have the marriage annulled.
