There was wedding ceremony, and


happy bride and bridegroom, atwood
bine cottage in Lyle township, last week
Tuesday evening. A large company OF
invited guests we're present, participating
in the pleasures and hospitalities OF the &C.
casion. Rev. Spafford was master OF cere-
monies, Rev. Belden assisting. The bride
was Miss Dante E. Kilgore, and George W.
E. Hill the groom, and he was, to all ap-
pearances, just little the happiest man
in all Mower county. Mr.. and Mrs. Hill
are both very highly esteemed in our

are extended to them by large circle OF
friends. May the coming years bring

Mrs. Henry Baudler, one of Austlns
earliest settlers, left our city Wednesday
for the home of her son-in-law. Chas.
Bornitz, of Sprague, Whitman county,
| Washington Territory. Mr.. and Mrs.
Baudler came to Austin in 1866, and have
been residents ever since that time.
Their children are going further west'
and the parents will go with them. Three
daughters go with the mother; the re-
naming children will probably follow
with the father next year. The journey
is long and tedious one, via. San Fran
cisco, then to Portland by water, from
there to Wallawalla up the Columbia
river, and from there to -Sprague, in
Washington territory. We wish them
all health and prosperity in their new
home. The TRANSCRIPT, meanwhile,
will tell them of Austin friends and Aus
tin interests.
Prof. Phelps of Winona, has been
visiting WELLESLEY College, the popular
school for young ladies near Boston,
Mass. Miss Jennie Ellis is attending this
school, therefore her many Austin friends
will be interested in reading the following
extract from a letter from Prof. Phelps to
the Winona Republican:
| We found the Winona representatives,
Miss Lizzie, Miss Gertrude Staples and
Miss Ellis in most excellent health and
spirits, and of course happy to see their
friends from home. They were able to de-
vote most of the time of our visit to con-
Quoting their guests through the buildings
and to conversation in the reception room.
The West, I was glad to observe, is well
represented here as to numbers, and Miss
Freeman Informed me that as a class the
Western girls rank among the best. They
bring with them dcfiniteness of aim and
an earnestness of purpose that give assur-
ance of the highest achievement.
