Did as Parents Did . . . Mount Airy--Following the example of his parents who 30 years ago were married under the giant oak trees near Crooked Oak church, Frank Colson of Round Peak brought Miss Bobbitt of Galax, Va., to the same spot so that he might be married uner the shade of some ofthe same oaks that sheltered his parnts during their nuptials. The groom is a well known farmer of Round Peak, who served his country with honor during the world war. (From the Roanoke Rapids Herald, September 17, 1920.)
