George and Monroe Tucker, 23 year old twins, were married in Frankfort last week, under amusing circumstances, to Warnie Dickey, aged 16, and Mattie Dickey, aged 18, sisters. The couples reside at Millville, and had gone to Frankfort for holiday shopping, when Monroe and Mattie decided to get married. They went to secure the license while George and Warnie went in search of a minister. While looking for one they, too, decided to get married and while the ceremony of linking Monroe to Mattie was going on, they slipped out and got a license and were married immediately afterwards.
