Street—Moreland

Wednesday afternoon at 5 o'clock in the marriage parlors, Justice Hendryx officiated at the wedding of Miss Carrie V. Street, of Pontiac, and Mr. Harper R. Moreland, of near Secor. They were accompanied by a number of friends, and after a short honeymoon trip, will go to housekeeping on a farm near Secor adjoining that of the groom's father.

This wedding was of more than ordinary interest to Justice Hendryx, owing to the fact that thirty-five years ago, he united in marriage the father and mother of the groom, and eight years ago he officiated at the wedding of the groom's brother, Mr. Homer Moreland, also of Woodford county.
