To the average masculine person
his wedding is about the most palnfui
|nerformance thru which he ever
wishes to pass. but a former Topeka
man and Washburn student, now in
california. responded to his marriage
VOWS with the added pain of broken
leg a dislocated wrist and with cuts
and bruiseseovering ms entre pody.
The man is Mr.. hilbert Walker
Ouisenberry of San Francisco, son of
Mrs. Virginia Quisenberry, 1905 Blu
chanan street and his bride was Miss
Athol Grace Bradbury, daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs H. C. Bradbury of San
L-andro. Cal.
The Rradb1rys are old Kansas resi-
dents and on their removal from Kan
sas City to California several years ago
Mr. Quisenberry drove them overland.
From the trip out west developed a
romance. The young couple had
planned their wedding but the war in
terfered. Then after Uncle Sam
men had helped end the war, the To-
peka man arrived in California and
again Clans were made for the we'd
ding to take place this time last Oc-
tober. But as women Will, the bride
changed her mind and decided that
the ceremony must be performed on
her mothers and fathers twenty-fifth
wedding anniversary, and besides. then
their lovely new California home would
be completed. So the wedding date was
set for Dec. %.
Several days before the affair, as
the bridegroom was driving to the sta
ton to meet some OF the out-of-to"n
guests a limousine, a slippery Oakland
street and a heavy truck became en-
tangled with the result that that nom
important factor in most weddings. the
bridegroom, was hurled in the air via
the route OF the wind shield of the
limousine.
Despite the inc nvenience of being
married while covered with adhesive
tape and bandages and being very ill
in the bargain, the former Topeka
boy and his fiancee were married on
the day set, Dec. %.
Mr.. Quisenberry has been quite. i'll
but is now slightly improved.
