Untitled, undated article; probably from the Monroe Appeal. A
handwritten note indicates a date of June 30, 1898. Extracted from the
newspaper article collection started in 1879 by Mrs. Nannie Brown of
Madison, Missouri.



"Daniel B. Halcumb, of Dallas, Texas, and Miss Ivy L. Curtright, were
married at the home of the bride, southwest of Paris, last Thursday
night, Eld. C.H. Strawn officiating. Miss Mary Curtright played the
wedding march, to the strains of which the bride and groom, accompanied
by K. Curtright and Miss Dolly Curtright and Miss Obetia Renick, of
Lexington, Ky., marched into the parlor, where the ceremony was
performed. After the vows had been spoken, and congratulations offered,
the wedding party and guest enjoyed an elaborate wedding feast.



The bride and groom drove to Paris and left on the 4 o'clock train for
Dallas, Texas, where the groom has a lucrative position as a telegraph
operator. Miss Curtright is a most lovable young lady - handsome,
amiable and well versed in those accomplishments that combine to make a
model wife. Mr. Halcumb is said to be in every way worthy of the prize
he has won. The Appeal wishes them much joy and prosperity."
