Most of our Mayfield people intend to celebrate the Fourth at Mr. Burches' grove south of Mayfield.

Miss Jennie Foose, one of Mayfield's most esteemed young ladies, was united in marriage to Hon. Judge Martin, of Otonga O.T. (Oklahoma Territory), June 20th at Wellington. May joy and peace attend them in the sentiments of the entire community.

Ernest Parker met with a serious accident yesterday while trying to get a hat which had blown away and lodged near a horse's heels.  The animal kicked, breaking his leg just above the knee.  Dr. Neel was summoned and he is getting along as well as could be expected.

Married at the Cumberland Presbyterian Church at 4 p.m., Mr. E. P. Freeman and Miss Stella Greathouse. Both are prominent young people in the community. The church was handsomely decorated with evergreens and natural flowers. Mr. Jonas Evans acted as groomsman and Miss Lula Nunn bridesmaid. The ceremony was performed by Rev. J. W.
