WILLIAMS - SELL.

  A wedding was solemnized at Plattsburg, Clinton county, Missouri, last week, 
which will be of interest to many Blair countians, the bride having many 
relatives here and her father being a scion of one of Blair county's oldest 
families.  The bride is a first cousin of J. C. and D. E. Sell of this city.  
For the following account of the nuptials, the Times is indebted to the 
Plattsburg Leader:
  Oliver Perry Williams, jr., and Miss Lucie Sell were married Wednesday 
evening at 4 o'clock, at the home of the officiating minister, Rev. H. M. 
Brubaker of this city.  Mr. and Mrs. Williams were unusually tactful in 
keeping their secret until the date of the wedding day and in keeping with the 
wartime simplicity of these occasions this year in a quiet way were wed, being 
accompanied only by Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Hoover, who were close friends.  Miss 
Lucie is the daughter of Rev. and Mrs. D. D. Sell of this city, and has been 
in the employ of the New York stores for the past three years where she has 
won many friends and acquaintances throughout the country.  She is an 
accomplished girl in an unusual way, for besides her business ability, she is 
possessed with practical domestic ideas which go to make a good home maker and 
housekeeper, as well as being very studious and artistic and will make a most 
helpful companion for Mr. Williams.  The groom is the son of Judge and Mrs. O. 
P. Williams.  He is a most reserved, refined, studious young man with sterling 
qualities of heart and mind having the most high ideals of life.  He has spent 
much time in college since his graduation from Pittsburgh [sic] schools.  They 
will make their home on the O. P. Williams farm six miles north of Plattsburgh 
during the winter months, while a house is being removed and remodeled on the 
building site just opposite Victory school.  Many friends of this worthy 
couple wish for them a bright and prosperous future.
