Atchely-McGill
A wedding to occur during the Christmas holidays, the news elicited unusual interest
in this city where the bride is most favorably known and truly admired, was that of
Miss Katie McGill to Mr. James F. Atchley, which occurred Christmas Day at 3 o'clock
p.m., Rev. R. L. Mason performing the ceremony at his beautiful home on Lindsay Street
in Chattanooga. Immediately after the marriage the contracting parties boarded the
train for points in the south where they will spend their honeymoon.
For some time the bride had held a nice position as teacher of the Chattanooga Commercial
School, where she made a world of warm friends who regretted deeply to give her up, but
who rejoiced with her in that she was happily married to one of her fondest affections.
She is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. R. McGill of this city. She having taught several
successful terms of school in Marion County, is widely known to the younger people who
hold her in the highest esteem for her traits of Christian character and for her sweet
disposition.
The groom is a prosperous young attorney with offices in the Temple Court Building at
Chattanooga.
We join their multitude of friends in extending every good wish.

Troxell - Rowland
A wedding that created quite a bit of interest in our city Christmas Day in that it was
performed in the middle of Cedar Avenue with the contracting parties seated in a buggy, and,
too, because of the popularity of the bride and groom, was that of Mr. George Rowland to
Miss Ada Troxell, of the town of Bridgeport, the ceremony being performed by Elder J. G.
Woodfin, of the Primitive Baptist Church. This happy couple drove up from Bridgeport early
in the morning of Christmas Day in search of some minister who would mold their hearts,
which had completely melted, in one that they might go on their way rejoicing and live
together happily ever afterwards. Elder Woodfin's form of ceremony was short but beautiful
in its simplicity. Immediately after the wedding the two drove through the country and
joined their friends at Bridgeport where they will reside.
