the Philippines, and on his return home
with an honorable discharge resumed hi
trade, that of carpenter. Shortly after this
he married Amanda Bunker. the only child
of William Bunker, who was reared on
farm near Walnut. Later he took the civil
service examination at Omaha and abou
two years ago went to Washington, wher,
he entered the census bureau.
After marriage Mr.. and Mrs. Copley live
here about a year and their married lif
was so harmonious that the admission tina
they had quarreled comes as surprise t
