w. n. Reece and Ines Latson, prominent
and we'll known Iowa Falls young folks,
eloped to Webster City and were married
last evening. Their secret might never
have leaked out but for the confusion OF
the groom and his most embarrassing at
tempts to keep the matter quiet.
He appeared at the office of the county

for the license. Being a stranger here he
was told he must bring someone with him
or get a statement that both he and his
brlde-to-be were eligible to marriage. The
young man returned to Iowa Falls on the
afternoon train and brought Miss Latson
back with him in the evening, together
with a statement from one OF Iowa Falls
prominent citizens that the couple could
legally marry. The license was secured
and the ceremony performed. The groom
confided to County Clerk Lund that he and
his bride expected to keep their marriage
a secret for five months, after which they
would announce 1t to their friends.
