The Forney (Texas) Register, of the 11th inst., contains the following: “Married, at the M. E. Church, on last Sunday night at 8 1/2 o’clock, Mr. T. J. Wideman and Miss Delia Lindsey, Rev. C. I. McWhirter officiating.  The Church was filled with friends and acquaintances to see the happy couple united in the bonds of matrimony.  Messars. J. T. Rhea and Laf Lindsey were the gentlemen and Misses Lewers Stevenson and Annie Hartman were the lady attendants.  The bride, one of Forney’s prettiest young ladies, looked lovely in a dress of some white fabric, and the bridegroom, in conventional black, looked as happy as if he owned the whole world, and together they presented a very handsome appearance.”  Mr. Wideman has many relatives in Anderson County, and the INTELLIGENCER joins them in extending congratulations.
