of Bathgate, N. D. The groom appear
ed in the usual black, with George F
Klessig as best man. After the cere-
mony was concluded the wedding
guests, with the newly made man
and wife, were seated for the we'd
ding breakfast, prepared by the
brides mother, which is an ample
guarantee that it was a sumptuous
one.
Nothing that we could say would
add to the high standing of this we'll
known aud estimable couple. The
bride has resided in the locality for
nine years, coming here with her par
ents from Allison. Ia. She is lady
of accomplishments, of lovable ma
ture, and by her many womanly quail
tiles has endeared herself to all who
know her, and she numbers her
friends by legion.
The groom, known by everyone as
"Johnnie," was raised in the locality
and is possessed of those sterling
qualities that go to make respected
man aud valued friend. He has been
identified with the business interests
of this place f)r about seven years,
and is always ready to do one a favor
or kindness. His character is with
out blemish and any community is
the better for his daily example.
The newly welded pair will go to
housekeeping in the home recently
purchased at Reading, and will be at
home to their friends after Aug. 1st.
Their many friends join the writer in
wishing them happy and prosper
