He was 52 years of age and was the son of the late Mrs. Mary Ford Offutt Hunt. Mr. Offutt comes of one of the best known families of Kentucky and has many relatives in Louisville, Shelbyville and in Central Kentucky. The body will be brought here Tuesday for burial, Dr. J. D. Wallace. of the Georgetown Presbyterian church. will conduct short services at the grave in the Georgetown cemetery." Although the title says Died in Fort Worth, it states in the article that he was of Fort Worth. An article printed in the next day's issue states he died in New Mexico, so I've removed Fort Worth as the place of death. Mrs. Gadines I believe to be Mrs. Gaines, of Fannie Offutt Gaines.

The couple stood before the mantel, which was banked with palms and ferns, with fan-shaped bouquet of calla lilies marking the center. Flanking the altar, wrought iron candelabra held white tapers. Mrs. Vincent O'Connor of Dallas, playing her own accompaniment, sang "O Promise Me." The 9 and 10-year-old daughters of the bride, Betty and Virginia Cheney, entered immediately after the minister and took their places. one at each side of the altar. The children wore pink and blue taffeta frocks, made on old-fashioned lines with long skirts and puffed sleeves.

The bride wore a spectator sports ensemble of gray hammered satin, worn with a matching turban touched with a cluster of purple and lavender flowers. She wore purple satin sandals, and a shoulder bouquet of purple orchids. After the wedding a small reception was held, with refreshment served from a table laid with filet lace and lighted by green tapers in silver holders. The centerpiece was a bowl of white chrysanthemums and baby's breath on a reflector, which was surrounded by hothouse smilax. Out-of-town wedding guests included Mrs. A. W.
