The marriage of Mr. Peter Muir McRoberts, of this place, to Miss Jean Steele Shelby was celebrated at high noon at Arcadia yesterday. Rev. Cooley, an Episcopal minister of Cincinnati, performed the ceremony. After an elegant breakfast by Glenn, of Lexington, Mr. and Mrs. McRoberts left for a short trip. They will return Saturday and take rooms at the St. Asaph Hotel. The magnificent and historic old home was beautifully decorated by Honaker, the Lexington florist. There were no attendants and while the wedding was a quite affair, it was a most elegant one. The bride is a daughter of Col. Isaac Shelby and is an exceedingly bright and lovable woman. She is highly accomplished and very popular. Mr. McRoberts is one of the leading lawyers of the Stanford bar, an excellent christian gentleman with a legion of friends. He has spent his entire life in Stanford and no man in this community stands higher. Mr. and Mrs. McRoberts were the recipients of many handsome presents, including a silver tea service given by the Stanford bar.
