HUBERT HAYLEY AND RETHA HENSLEY, Coke County, TX

HAYLEY-HENSLEY

Mr. Hubert Hayley and Miss Retha Hensley greatly surprised their many 
friends Sunday morning by being quietly married, at the Methodist 
parsonage, Rev. W. E. Anderson officiating.

The surprise to their friends was not in the fact of their marriage, 
for their friends had believed for a long time that they would marry, 
but did not expect the cosummation of the happy event so soon.

The bride is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Walter Hensley and is admired 
by all who know her for her beautiful graces of mind and heart which 
qualify her for presiding with grace and dignity over the home of the 
one to whom she has given her heart and hand.  She was a member of the 
graduating class of the Bronte High school and it was only last week 
that she was a light and happyhearded graduate of the school, hence 
that was the reason for the surprise to her friends, that she so 
shortly became a happy bride.  Therefore her many friends wish her a 
double portion of happiness in her now and happy relations as a bride.

The groom is a Bronte boy having been reared here.  He is one of the 
foremost and most progressive business men of the town, and enjoys 
the confidence and esteem of all our people.  "Hubert," as he is 
known to all is congratulated by his friends upon his good fortune 
in the winning of the affections of one so fair and charming to be 
his life companion.

With the hosts of friends of these fine young people the Enterprise 
joins in wishing them von boyage as they set sail upon the seas of 
wedded life.  May the sunshine always be golden for them and the 
shadows but few; and as they journey towards life's sunset may they 
grow in the love and confidence and esteem of each other and may 
their hearts ever beat as one.

(Bronte Enterprise, Coke County, TX, May 1923.  This clipping was 
found in Ethel Pearce Hayley's scrapbook.  A note in her handwriting 
says they were married 20 May 1923.)
