- Barnesville Enterprise
Thursday, January 8, 1885
Editor Enterprise. - It is with pleasure that we proceed to chronicle the marriage of Miss Emma Barlow, daughter of Mr. Amos Barlow, of this vicinity, to Mr. Chas. Crew, of Chesterfield, Morgan County, Ohio. The wedding occurred Thursday evening January 1st, 1885, at the residence of the bride's father, and was quite a novel and pleasant affair. The guest were ignorant of the fact that a marriage was to occur, having been invited by Miss Emma to a party on New Year's evening. They were received by the young lady herself, who, with her pleasant ways and ready wit, started the ball of social enjoyment rolling at such a rate that she managed to slip away unnoticed, and by the time the guest began to note her absence, she returned arrayed in a tasteful bridal costume, leaning upon the arm of Mr. Crew. They were preceded by Elder Paine, who in a very impressive ceremony pronounced them man and wife. After congratulations were over, the assembly was served with refreshments, which were pronounced first class by all. A general good time was indulged in, and the guests paid their final compliments to the wedded pair and retired. Mr. Crew is certainly a very worthy young man. Coming here a stranger, two years ago, he has won for himself a long list of friends. Mrs. Crew is one of those rare women, who combine talent and social accomplishments with practical every day wisdom, and we venture to predict that her husband will find in her a true helpmate in climbing the ladder of life. We are sorry to lose Emma from our midst, but our loss is certainly Mr. Crew's gain. They will remain here a few weeks, when they will leave for their future home in Morgan county.
