CENTENARIAN’S ROMANCE.
The New York American makes an interesting announcement of a unique love match between a gentleman living at Tatesville, Tennessee, and a lady of Preston, England, both of whom can claim to be centenarians. The bridegroom is Mr John B. Bnndren, who has reached the ripe age of ioi. His bride, Miss Rose M'Gniie, has passed her hundredth birthdav. The wedding which, the American says, is the first that has ever taken place between centenarians, is to be celebrated on August 26 next. Miss M'Guire was engaged in her youth to the gentleman who is now to become her husband. Her parents, however, in those early days parted the lovers, and the engagement was broken off. Recently, however, the parties discovered that each had survived the ravages of time, and the various letters which passed between them terminated in an engagement.
