A correspondent from Columbus to the Atlanta Constitution says: Captain 
Dinkley, of Nashville, Tenn., and Mrs. Carrie Jordan were married at Geneva, 
Ga., Tuesday morning.  The marriage it tinged with romance.  During the war 
Captain Dinkley was wounded and taken to the residence of Colonel Caldwell, 
then father of Mrs. Jordan, who was then a pretty girl of sixteen.  The young 
and gallant captain fell in love with Miss Carrie, who returned his 
affections.  Captain Dinkley recovered and returned to his regiment.  
Circumstances kept the lovers apart, and in due course of time each of them 
married.  The Captains wife died a year or so ago, and his thoughts wandered 
again to his first love.  He learned that she was a widow, residing at Geneva.  
He began a correspondence with his former sweetheart, which terminated in a 
happy marriage.
