Last Monday evening, at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. D. F. M. Perkins, Central Avenue, was celebrated an event of more than usual importance, the occasion being the marriage of Mr. Wm. Kennedy and Miss Helen Boyes, both of this district. Mr. Kennedy is local manager of the Wm. Blair Stores here, and is well and popularly known through the whole Cariboo district. Miss Boyes has been a resident of Fort George since last June. The ceremony was performed by the Rev. C. M. Wright, pastor of the Fort George Presbyterian Church, and was witnessed by only a few friends of the contracting parties.

Unusual interest attached to the occurrence in that it is the first marriage ceremony solemnized in the Fort George district, not including native contracts. The happy couple are the recipients of the heartiest good wishes of the whole district, in which the Tribune joins.

Only eight months ago Mrs. Fetrow, wife of Mr. T. Fetrow the Nechaco rancher, was the only white woman in Fort George. Today there are at least fifty of the gentle sex, who by their helpfulness and cheerful society have made life here as comfortable as in the older and more thickly settled regions. Though mere man outnumbers the superior sex at least four or five to one, the unattached male majority are living in hope of a vast influx of embryo companions and helpmeets the coming spring.
