J. T. Preston and Miss Beatrice Richardson were united in marriage 
Tuesday evening, December 27, at the home of the bride's mother, Mrs.
E. A. Richardson, 1305 Eighth Street.  Rev. H. D. Marlin, pastor of 
the First Methodist Church, spoke the words which made the popular 
couple man and wife.

Guests at the wedding included:  Mrs. R. E. Crockett, Los Angeles, 
Calif., sister of the bride; Dr. and Mrs. A. S. Love, Miss Isabelle
Richardson, Milburn Harvey, Geo. Dougherty, Clyde Holliday, Mrs. H. D.
Marlin, Francis Holliday, Mrs. and Mrs. M. B. Webb.

The bride was dressed in a blue and white suit and carried an arm 
bouquet of pink rose buds with streamers of pink ribbons and sweet
peas.

Mrs. Preston is a graduate of the Ballinger high school, completing 
her course here with the class of '29.  She has resided here for several
years and is a popular member of the younger set.

Following graduation from Ballinger high school in 1927 the groom 
attended Baylor University, Waco, and Simmons University, Abilene.
Recently he has been connected with local business enterprises and has 
made a host of friends.

After a brief wedding trip the couple will be at home at Pearsall, 
Texas.
