Miller and her mother went to the coun-
| try and the two have seen little of each
other since. When the fall term opened
she began her senior year at Occidental
and he went back to Pomona to con-
tinue his course with his class.
Hoped to Keep Secret
| Miss Miller was not at all pleased last
night when she learned her little secret
had leaked out. She was just preparing
to leave for Occidental college to attend
the reception Of the senior class to the
freshman when reporter called.
1--WE do not want anything at all said
about our wedding" she said ''Mr. Boil
| Ter is still in college and 1 am also at
tending college and we hoped to keep
the wedding a secret until he gradu-
ated Neither Mr.. Boiler or myself
want to be known about it, for we do
not intend to keep house for three or
four years. We are both very young
and are ambitious to get the best possi-
BILE education"
Mrs. w. R. Miller, the mother of
the young bride, said:f
ct had no objection to the wedding of
Leah and Phillips except that they
were both so young Phillips is splen-
did young fellow and is doing well in
college. 1t did not seem best for him
or for Leah either that their wedding
should be made public, as it might
hamper him seriously in getting his
education. They have been fast friends
ever since they first met and they were
engaged for some time before the we'd
ding"
If young Mr.. Boiler hunted California
over he could hardly find a prettier or
more attractive young bride. She is a
bright girl with quantities of curly
hatr II ff,xI
clear complexion. Since going to Occl-
dental she has been most popular with
the students though it was noticed she
did not bestow her favors on any par
ticular one. and no one ever guessed
that her heart was in the safe keeping
of a student in another institution.
Wins Honors as Athlete
Just before college opened, in order
to be near her daughter at school the
mother moved from the west end of
town where they were living at the
time of the wedding to Highland Park
where she has an artistic new bungalow
in Abbott place.
The home of Rev. and Mrs. Boiler is
at 1859 West Washington street, and
there the young man lived until he
went to Pomona.
During the two years which Phillips
Boiler has been attending the Congre-
gational college he has won honors as
a brilliant student and on the athletic
field his presence has been in demand.
He plans to spend two years more at
Pomona and to go from there to Har-
ward as soon as he receives his degree.
Rev. Mr.. Boiler Regrets Publicity
Rev. e. p. Boiler said last night:
Il am sorry the affair has been made
public, as It will seriously hamper the
young people.
"It was a pure love affair and we do
not regret the marriage of Phillips and
Leah and they do not regret 1t. but we
do regret the publicity which we natur-
ally sought to avoid. The young peo-
pie have known each other for two
years.
Mrs Miller and her daughter were
members of my congrega tion and they
are excellent people. There was no oh
lection to the marriage other than that
they were young and wanted to con-
tinue their educational courses. we
hesltated about announcing the mar
riage because II would interfere with
their social life"
Remember Couple at Hotel
Andrew s. Lee, chief clerk Of the
Lankershim. recalled the visit of the
bridal couple to the hotel
"Yes | remember Mr.. and Mrs. Ed
gerton," said he, They were fine
looking couple and one would not soon
forget them She was a beautiful girl
and they both seemed modest and
quiet. | thought them very young to
be married, but / did not realize that
she was a bride for she seemed ouite
self possessed and not at all embar-
rassed"
