The Schley County News  Thursday, February 7, 1895  
A ROMANTIC MARRIAGE
Ellaville people were treated to a genuine surprise Sunday afternoon in the 
quiet marriage which took place at the home of Mr. John Kleckly.  The 
contracting parties were Mr. Edward Stewart and Miss Minnie Lee Threlkeld and 
so well had they kept their secret that no one knew of their intentions until 
just a few moments before the ceremony was performed.  Mr. Stewart called in 
the afternoon at the home of his sweetheart and together they went for a walk, 
going to the home of Mrs. Kleckly, who is aunt of the groom.  Two or three 
friends were notified and Ordinary Taylor summoned.  By this time the affair 
had leaked out and a number of gentlemen dropped in just in time to witness 
the interesting event.  Judge Taylor officiated in a very dignified and 
impressive manner.  It was not exactly a runaway marriage, but as there was 
some opposition the young couple decided upon this course.  But the bride and 
groom are very deserving and popular young people, and they begin life with 
the hearty good wishes of hosts of good friends.  With these the News joins 
most sincerely, and trusts that their united lives may be one long dream of 
bliss.
