In our issue of last week We announc-
ed the marriage of Mr.. Spencer Palmer
and Miss Rose Wilhelm at Hill City a
short time ago. 1t seems that the item
was premature. The lady IN question
has sent word to this Office asking us to
retract the statement or she will get
after us with a sharp stick. as there is
no truth in the report The Keystone
Miner was responsible for the item, and
we would suggest to Miss Wilhelm to
first interview the editor of that
paper before invading the sanctum Of
the CHRONICLE. However we gladly
make the correction, although we still
wish it were true, as it struck US as be-
ing an excellent match.
