Popular Young Newspaper Collector Takes Unto Himself a Bride
and Then Announces His Engagement.
----------
MARRIED BY REV. MR. SPEAR
----------
Ceremony Was Performed Two or Three Weeks Ago
and County Clerk Hid Papers.
----------
"Secrets will out" sooner or later, and
it is now up to Mr. Martin Griffin and his bride, who was formerly Miss Della Young, to announce
their marriage, which occurred between two and three weeks ago, the ceremony being quietly performed early in the
evening at the home of the Rev. H. N. Spear, pastor of the First Baptist church, the Rev. Spear performing the
ceremony, after which he was pledged to secrecy.
Two weeks ago Mr. Griffin and his bride announced their
engagement through the Democrat, Mr. Griffin being employed during the past year as a collector on that paper.
At the time of the announcement the statement was made that their marriage would occur the latter part of August.
They were at that time, married, or were making final preparations for their wedding. When they first applied
for a marriage license, they wished the matter kept a secret until November. When the evening came to secure
the license, the groom-to-be did not appear at the clerk's office but called there a few days later, secured the
license and the marriage took place shortly afterwards. Both the marriage blanks and marriage return are
locked securely in the big iron safe in the county clerk's office and they will probably remain there until Mr.
Griffin asks that it be made public.
Mrs. Griffin is the beautiful and accomplished young
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Matthias Young, west of the city, and has endeared herself to a legion of
friends by her accomplishments. Mr. Girffin is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Patrick F. Griffin, of 465 West Mechanic
street, and by his integrity, honesty and sobriety numbers his friends by his acquaintances.
Congratulations are now in order.
