Nashville, Term.— Thos. H. Joy, eld- 

 est son of Thos. C. Joy, and Miss Mon- 

 ica McGinnis, also of this city, were 

 married at 6 a. m. on Sunday, October 

 15, and left about an hour later on 

 their wedding trip, which was to in- 

 clude a call at St. Louis and Chicago. 

 A number of friends made elaborate 

 preparations for showering the couple 

 with rice and old shoes and making 

 other active demonstrations of their 

 good wishes, but were entirely out- 

 witted, for the bridal party eluded 

 them. Both the groom and his father 

 are members of the Joy Floral Co.
