among those numbered as pioneers,
her birthplace being the old home at
Clayton. the well-known Shier ranch,
and has lived in Emmons county all

with her parents in Linton, and it is
safe to say that no young lady in the
town can boast of more friends and
well-wishers than the lady who will
now be known az Mrs. Chas. Paul.
son.
Mr.. Paulson is q former South
Dakotan. having come here from
Dell Rapids a number of years ago
He is painter and carpenter by
trade, has Away been identified

The early hour set by the bride
for the wedding eliminated a large

tertainment waiting for them at the
hands of their friends.
