A marriage of interest to relatives and friends in Oxford took place on Saturday evening at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Lucillus Chandler, near Durham, when the daughter, Mabel, became the bride of Mr. Hoy Fuller, son of Mrs. Dudley Fuller of Oxford. The ceremony was witnessed by only a few relatives and friends of the contracting parties. Rev. Williams performed the ceremony using the ring service.
The bride is an attractive young woman of sweet personality. The groom is employed by the Lassiter Construction company and has a host of friends who are congratulating him on winning so fair a bride. Immediately following the ceremony Mr. and Mrs. Fuller left for a tour north, after which they will be at home in Oxford.
