Luckett on bayou Rapides in Rapides Parish, Wednesday, Jan. 6, 1886, Mr. Jas. M. Rhorer, Jr. of Grant Parish to Miss Constance Luckett. A large gathering of relatives and friends were present to witness the nuptial ceremonies of the happy couple and every detail that goes to make such an occasion enjoyable was amply provided by the generous host. After a supper of good things fit to serve to the mythological gods, the hours were whiled away in music and the dance until the gray streaks of dawn warned the marry crew that Old Sol would soon be peeping over the eastern horizon. On Thursday the happy groom installed his new bride in the home he had already provided for her in Colfax, having rented and fixed up the Cunningham house for this purpose several weeks ago. We extend hearty congratulations to the newly made Benedict and his bonnie bride.
