January l1th, and received the cOngrat-
ulatiOns of the Dr.'s many friends in this

up their residence at the National Hotel
and it is to be hoped are to become per
manent residents of our town. We may
be little late in adding our cOngratula-
tions and good wishes, but it is not be-
cause they are not genuine, but on ac-
count of an inadvertence. The following
is an extract from the Dodgeville ChrOn-
icle. of the 5th inst: "The bride is one
of Dodgeville's fairest, most amiable and
accomplished daughters, and the regret
at losing her from our social circles is
naturally very general. But while this
is so it is satisfaction to know that she
has cast her lot with one who gives
every promise of making her happy,
being young man of irreproachable
character and well established in life
May joy and sunshine ever surround
their path is the wish of all"
