o'clock last night. They were
accompanied by Mr. and Mrs. C.
H. Todd, of Calumet, where the

McQUATTERS-CLEVENGER
At 11:30 Wednesday morning
August 18th,Mr. Otis R. McQuat-
ters of Elida and Miss Florence
G. Clevenger of Upton, were uni-
ted in marriage at the bride's
home, Pastor F. P. Alldridgeof
"the Baptist church of Portales,
officiating. There were present,
besides the bridal party, the fa-
ther and mother and brother of
the brid^. also Attorney Jim Hall
and wife, thr'ptter being a sis-
ter of the bride, also Mr. and
Mrs. T. M. Laster of Portals,
Mrs. Laster being a sister to the
groom; also E. P. Alldredge and
driver, Biilie Nesbit, of the
Vaughn Auto Company.
As is known to most of our
readers, Mr. McQuatters is an
excellent young business man of
Ellida, who hails from Hill coun-
ty, Texas, where he was raised
and some other members of the
family still reside. The McQuat-
ters are substantial, high-mind-
ed, energetic and successful peo-
ple; and we have no doubt that
Mr. Otis will demonstrate his ti-
tle to his father's good name and
his family's splendid record.
Mrs. McQuatters is the third
and baby daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. 0. M. Clevenger who came
here more than two years ago
from Oklahoma. Mr. and Mrs.
Clevenger settled near Upton in
the valley beneath the high mesa
which extends through the west-
ern part of Roosevelt county :and
throngh Mr. Clevenger has had
large experience in handling con-
crete building propositions and in
contracting in this and other
lines, he has enjoyed the less
strenuous life of home building
in the rich valley where he has
lived these two years and more.
Their daughter Mrs. McQuatters
is young, intelligent,leavel-head-
ed, womanly and beautiful.
The bridal party were driven
back to Portales where they will
be the guests of Mr. and Mrs. T. 1
M. Laster of this city, for a few
days after which they will be at
home to their large circle of
friends at Elida.—Portales (New
Mexico) Herald.
EARLY SETTLERS
Capt. and Mrs. H. A. Todd of
Calumet were in the city one day
this week. Mr. Todd does not
look much different from the
time we first met him about 34
years ago. Mr. Todd was at that
time government mail contractor
all over the country. It was
done by two horse buckboards.
They had relays of hoi-ses sta-
tioned about every 20 miles and
changed teams at each station.
Daring these times a man's scalp
wasn't any too secure at that
time, as there was considerable
feeling among the Indians caused
by the whites having killed off
the buffalo, but overything has
changed since then, then there
was nothing but a broad
expanse of wild prairie. Now
the country is dotted all over!
with homes and has proved to be
one of the most tertile countries
in the universe. All honor to the
early settlers of Ok'ahnhrm who
have made such thing's pos-j
