Miss Ruth Riley Weds Lieut. Caton At Pastor's Home
Mr. and Mrs. Everette Clay Riley announce the marriage of their daughter, Ruth Imogene, to Lieut. Frederick Wilson Caton of Providence, R. I. and Maxwell Field, Montgomery, December twenty-fifth, nineteen hundred, forty, Northport, Alabama.
The above announcement will be a distinct surprise to the friends of Lieut. and Mrs. Caton since the wedding was a very quiet event, solemnized at 4 o'clock on the afternoon of Christmas Day in the home of Rev. and Mrs. B. F. Atkins in Northport. The Rev. Mr. Atkins served as the officiant and only the closest friends witnessed the ceremony.
The bride of Lieut. Caton belongs to an old and a well-established Tuscaloosa family and she has been prominently identified with the business and religious circles of the city since graduation from high school. Mrs. Caton is a member of the Tuscaloosa Chapter, Business and Professional Women's Club, and other local organizations and is both attractive and cultured.
Lieut. Caton served for a few months as an instructor at the local airport, was later sent to Kelley Field for graduate instruction, and is now stationed at Maxwell Field, Montgomery, as an instructor in the Aviation corp. After a brief honeymoon Mrs. Caton will return to this city to resume her work.
