The ceremony was pronounced by Esq. Market in LaGrange at 5 o'clock last Thursday afternoon (10 Sept 1914). Mr. and Mrs. Neely came to Roanoke the following day to spend a few days with the latter's home people, returning Sunday afternoon to their future home in Antioch, Ga. There is an element of romance in this affair of the heart. The couple met two years ago when Miss Widner visited relatives in the Antioch community. This summer she went to teach a summer school there, whereupon the friendship of the former years developed into a love affair which culminated as above related. The bride is the estimable daughter of Mrs. S.V. Widner of this city. The gentleman she married is a successful farmer of the Antioch neighborhood in Troup County. (Transcribed by C.
