Jordan and Miss Louise M. Graves, both of this parish, were joined in holy wedlock. Justice W. H. McFarland performed the ceremony in his usual happy style. Only a few relatives and intimate friends were present. The bride is a young lady of many accomplishments, and is highly esteemed by all who know her. She has been a resident of our parish for several years, and her large circle of friends will wish for her a happy future.
