Madisonville Soldier
Captures A Trigg County Bride
Captures A Trigg County Bride
Another romance has resulted from the stationing of troups in Trigg County. Two or three months ago, a Middlesboro Soldier married a pretty girl at Golden Pond. Amos Winstead, a Madisonville soldier, lately on duty at Cerulean, is the next of the military boys to capture a Trigg County bride. On Sept. 2 he eloped with Miss Sarah Nabb, a pretty daughter of C.T. Nabb, and they were married in Nashville. Parental objections made the elopement necessary. The couple met first a year ago, while the bride was a schoolgirl at Georgetown.
The Cadiz Record says the groom is an electrician in Madisonville, and is said to be a splendid young man and of a good family. He has been given a discharge from the State Guard and is now out of the military service.
The Bride is a very beautiful girl of sixteen and very popular.

Today he would be in jail and labeled as a sex offender.
