Holmes - Gray

The many friends of Mr. Robt. Holmes and Miss Nellie Gray, of Barnesville were 
surprised to hear of their marriage which occurred at Forsyth Tuesday evening. 
Mr. Holmes and Miss Gray left presumably for a drive. The next news from them 
was a telephone message which said they had gone to the home of Dr. Hollis, a 
relative, where they had been married. It had been generally supposed that they 
were to marry soon, but they completely surprised their friends. Both of the 
parties are quite popular, Miss Gray being one of Barnesville’s loveliest young 
ladies, while Mr. Holmes stands high, being clerk and treasurer of the city and 
assistant cashier of the Barnesville Savings Bank. They are receiving 
congratulations from all their friends.
