Maude Thompson-Ransom Evans Wedding, Oct. 31, 1922

A Surprise Marriage Saturday Afternoon

A marriage which will be learned with a great deal of surprise by a host of friends here of the bride is that of Miss Maude Thompson of this place and Mr. Ransom Evans of Granite Falls, which took place last Saturday afternoon at 4 o’clock at the Methodist parsonage, the bride’s pastor, Rev. W.E. Poovey performing the ceremony in the presence of only a few friends.

The bride is the popular young daughter of Mr. and Mrs. O.C. Thompson of this place and commands a host of friends. The groom has been spending some time in Shelby where he holds a splendid position with the Abee Construction company. He and his bride expect to leave in a few days for Concord, where they will make their home for the present.
