Warrensburg Pair Marry After Joking License Mixup
Blair Towhard and Lithe McLain, both under social pressure from a group of friends, jokingly proposed marriage. They consented believing the other was Justin. A license was drawn in Justin's name. The ceremony occurred at Roy G. Carey's residence with Pastor Carey officiating, but the couple behaved awkwardly and the event drew crowds. The couple reportedly separated that night and dissolved plans to wed.
