Such an occurrence is not out of the ordinary at the court house, but the apparent variance in the ages of the two parties made the recorder hesitate when the prospective groom requested a license.
‘Put your ages here,’ said recorder Randolph to the cooing couple and in obeyance to the instructions, the figure 45 opposite the written name of the groom and 60 next to that of the blushing bride.
‘Now brush the confetti off your clothes if you wish we will proceed with the ceremony.’ This from Judge Umphalbaugh, whose long experience in affairs of this sort, made his advice sound doubly assuring. The toilette process concluded, the two joined hands and were made one by the words of the judge. Mr. Taylor gave his promise to watch over and protect his wife and she in her turn took the responsibility of his welfare on her shoulders.
The happy groom is a well known farmer living in the south part of Chillicothe township. Mrs. Taylor is one of the most prominent lady residents of Ludlow, which has been her home for the past few years.” The Chillicothe Constitution, October 16, 1903
