Robert Taylor and Miss Ruby Lipscomb, both of 1903 Maury Street, were married

Captain and Mrs. Lipscomb, practically all her life. The groom is from Petersburg, but has boarded in the Lipscomb household a long time. He is an employe[sic] of the Rountree Trunk Factory, of Richmond.
The first announcement that any such step was contemplated was a telegram
