ELLIOTT, KERR, WILLEY posted by Ft. Gibson Gateway to the West on Friday, March 7, 1865

Ft. Gibson Gateway to the West; C W "Dub" West; pg 76; The Cherokee Tomahawk Ft. Gibson CN (Cherokee Nation) Mar 13, 1865: At the residence of the bride's father, on Tuesday, March 7, 1865, by the Rev Mr. WILLEY, Mr. G W ELLIOTT to Miss Ann KERR, all of Ft. Gibson, C.N. No Cards. Another has been taken from the list of "old bachelors" and added to that of "Family men". While we deplore the loss of a friend, we concur in the many unanswerable arguments advanced by him to prove that the change was necessary. "Married folks" have gained a convert, and the writer has lost a bedfellow. May happiness ever attend the pathway of the young couple, and when age shall have dimmed their eyes and enfeebled their footsteps, may their love to each other be as fresh and pure as now. Baltimore papers please copy.

Mr Watts is on his way to Washington, where he will take up the questions pertaining to the interests of the intruders with the Secretary of the interior. On his way to the capital, Mr Watts will stop off at Memphis, and tomorrow in that city he will wed Mrs L J Maddux. The bride is an accomplished and educated woman, who for a year past has been the stenographer of Col. Watts. The prospective bridegroom was in a very happy frame of mind today and was shaking hands with his numerous friends in he city over the doming event. In talking with a representative of the News Record today Col. Watts said: "I shall probably be in Washington for sixty days. I have got with me a roll of Watt's claimants whose Cherokee blood is established, and I shall endeavor to determine just what can be done for them. We believe that we shall get fair treatment from the Washington fficials and from Congress. It is true that Congressman Curtis, of Kansas, who himself has Indian blood, has introduced a measure that is in some respects hostile, but we believe that Congress will look at the matter in the right light. "the town site questions ought to be settled without delay, so that while settlers in the territory can acquire property on which to make improvements, or on which improvements have already been made. Wagoner will make vast strides forward when this matter is definitely disposed of. Wagoner by the way is growing very rapidly. You will hardly recognize it when you go there again.
