The Athens Messenger
Athens, Ohio
9 October, 1902

   Mr. Fred Gillilan of Martin’s Ferry and Miss Mary White of Chauncey were married Thursday and came here Friday to visit Mr. and Mrs. Reuben Gillilan and other relatives. In the evening the young people treated them to a serenade. Refreshments were served to the crowd and all went home happy except one woman who lost her dishpan and made herself hoarse trying to help with the noise.
