The church was most beautifully decorated, and the ceremonies were beautiful in every particular. Monday night a reception was tendered the happy couple in Barnesville by Mrs. S. Reeves. Quite a large number of young people were present. A most magnificent supper was served, and every thing added to the pleasure to the evenings entertainment. The presents were numerous an handsome.
