CHILDREN MARRIED
James Carrick and Lulu Spencer of
near Sickles were granted a
license and were married
yesterday by Judge Crum. And
hereby lies
a tale. When the youthful couple
applied the day before and asked
for a license the Judge refused
to grant it on account of the
extreme youthful appearance of
the bride. She insisted she was
15
and produced a written order from
her papa granting her
permission to become Mrs.
Carrick. Judge Crum informed her
that
it was necessary to have her
mama's consent also and furnished
her a blank to have her mother
fill out granting her consent.
They returned yestrday with the
permit properly signed up and the
Judge granted the license and
proceeded to marry them. The
groom
gave his age as 21.

FOOLED AGAIN, BY THUNDER
Floyd Royer of Apache Review fame
was a caller this morning and
we supposed he was visiting the
capitol of the county on
important business and
incidentally called on us
fraternatly. We
thought that Bro. Royer was
looking a little pale and had a
far
away, longing expression of
coutenance and acted nervous, but
we
attributed it to the fact that he
probably felt strange in a
large place like Anadarko. But we
were fooled entirely. It wasn't
that at all that made him nervous
The rascal was simply talking
to us in order to kill a little
time and gain sufficient courage
to apply for a marriage license.
He went direct from our office
and did the act, and we would
never have guessed the truth had
not the lynx eyed reporter for
the Tribune found the record of
the affair at the proper
official's office. Well Bro.
Royer,
here's hopin', etc.
