In Highland, March 31, by O. P. Carpenter, Esq.
John J Miller, aged 18 years, and Rachel Elizabeth Davis, aged 15 years, both of Lloyd.

When they appeared before his Honor, Justice Carpenter, demurred, but Miss Davis said she was bound to be married, and if he didn't do the job, some one else would. After the ceremony, they departed, happy as two children would be over a lot of molasses candy. Miss D. was dressed in a neat calico dress, while her affianced had some how outgrown his wearing apparel.
