MAUDE

"Miss Maude Leazenby, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Leazenby of near Kanorado, and Mr. Lester Bryan son cf Mrs. Bryan, were united in marriage Sunday afternoon at o'clock, February 12, 1911, at the home of the bride's parents. The Rev. Hutchins or the Kanorado Methodist church, officated. It is needless to speak of the fine wedding dinner, as such things are the height of perfection and abundance in country homes. We suspect, from our slight acquaintance of the circumstances, that this is a culmination of a little romance. No young man, nor old one for that matter, knows who will be his future wife, until the unsuspected goddess appears before his very eyes. Well, in due time, the Mrs. Bryan to be, appeared in the form of a pleasant school teacher in the Bryan neighborhood. For a time she boarded at the Bryan home. There being no children in the 3chool but those of Mr. Gatschall, it was finally decided to hold school at the home of the children, which was accompanied with a change of boarding place. With these meager circumstances our knowledge ends, and only the imaginative mind can picture the novel of rural life. But let It suffice to say that Mr. and Mrs. Bryan are likely young people, happy in youth, with the prospect of many years. They are domiciled in the comfortable country home on the Bryan ranch on the Smoky, where their many frinends will find welcome as chance and invitation lead them there "
