Cupid has again made his rounds among the class of ’20. Lillie May Aycock, who has been the popular Demonstration Agent of Greene County for several years, was married on February 9 in the Baptist church at Louisburg, N.C., to Mr. Robert W. Isley, Superintendent of Public Instruction at Yanceyville, N.C. The editor regrets that the detailed account of this pretty wedding clipped from The News and Observer has been lost.
