Virginia Gentleman Weds Wilson County Woman—On Northern Honeymoon.

Wilson, N.C., Dec. 25—Miss May Paschall, the pretty and winsome daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J.W. Paschall of Contennea, some three miles south of Wilson, was united in marriage Wednesday evening at 10:30 to Mr. W.H. Tucker, a prominent young railroad man of Richmond, an employe of the Atlantic Coast Line.

Rev. Mr. Speigel, pastor of the Christian Church, united the happy couple, leaving with a party of relatives and friends for the home of the bride on the southbound shoofly, returning on the northbound. Both trains were late on account of the heavy Christmas traffic. The bride and groom left last night for Washington and other points north on their honeymoon.
