Georgia Enterprise, January 8, 1891
HAPPY MARRIAGE
     The marriage of Mr. Grier Q. Livingston and Miss Minnie L. Downs was 
solemnized at Bethany Church, Newton County, on Christmas eve. The ceremony was 
performed by Rev. J. L. Rogers, of Atlanta, in the presence of a large number 
of relatives and friends. The bridal couple entered the church to the strains 
of a wedding march played by Miss Jennie Fox, of Ohio, and took their places 
under an arch of evergreen, trimmed with holly, where they were met by the 
officiating clergyman, who performed the ceremony in a very impressive manner. 
The bride in a lovely suit of dark blue Henrietta, trimmed with tulle _______ 
________ appeared more charming, while the groom in the conventional black 
impressed all with his manly bearing. The groom is a son of Hon. L. F. 
Livingston, the newly elected member of Congress from the fifth district. The 
fair bride has grown from childhood to womanhood among the friends who 
witnessed her marriage and stands high in the estimation of all who are 
fortunate enough to enjoy her acquaintances. After hearty congratulations the 
newly married pair, together with the entire company repaired to the town hall 
where the remainder of the evening was pleasantly spent in rifling a beautiful 
Christmas tree of its precious contents, and listening to entertaining speeches 
and delightful music.  B.
