MISS MINNIE MAE SPRADLEY ADOLPH CHANCEY'S BRIDE
A marriage which proved a pleasant surprise to many friends was that
of Miss Minnie Mae Spradley, of this city to Mr. Adolphus Chancey, of
Hartford, but formerly, of Troy.
The ceremony occurred at the home of Dr. R. J. Bateman, pastor of the
First Baptist Church, at 4 p.m. Sunday afternoon.
Accompanying the contracting parties were Mr. Jim Tom Wilson and Miss
Valetta Rutland, the party motoring to the pastorium in Mr. Wilson's
handsome and luxuriant McFarland car.
Following the ceremony the party enjoyed a pleasant motor trip to the
country, after which dinner was served to the party at the Spradley home
on Montgomery street. Later Mr. and Mrs. Chancey departed via the Coast
Line for thier home at Hartford.
The bride is a charming and accomplished daughter of Tax Assessor and
Mrs. Chas. Spradley, and is a young woman of a congenial disposition
which has won and held for her a large circle of admiring friends. The
groom, a native of this county, and for many years a Trojan, is now a
prosperous and progressive business man of Hartford, Ala.
