Dale of Chihuahua, Mex. were married some days ago at Los Angeles. The wedding has all the elements of a romantic love affair. Four years ago, when the young people first met, they were attending school at Southwestern College, Georgetown, Tex. and after an intimate friendship, they became engaged. A year ago Miss Dale went to her home in Mexico where her father is a banker, and Richey came to California. A desultory correspondence finally ceased altogether and the young couple lost track of each other. This year Miss Dale came by chance on a visit to California and learning of the presence of Mrs. E. L. Du Bose, a former schoolmate, in Santa Ana, went there to visit her. When she alighted from the train the first person she saw was Richey. They renewed their relations and in a week were married.
