The announcer next introduced to
the crowd, the groom and the groom's
cousin who had made all arrangements
for the ceremony. For this service,
the cousin was to receive several
horses, cattle and other property from

The groom then seated himself on
one of the rugs and his blushing gig
Cling bride seated herself beside him.
A bowl of nlush was placed before
them and the medicine man, or preach

lated sugar syrup. Or use clarified
molasses, honey, or corn syrup, instead
of sugar syrup. if desired. Thus YOU
make q full pint-a family supply-but
costing no more than a small bottle of
Teady-made cough syrup.
And as 6 cough medicine. there is
really nothing better to be had at any

messed by large crowd of curious
spectators and an announcer with a
megaphone told the onlookers the
stages of the ceremony
Gaudily dressed Indians first carried
in two rugs and placed them on the
ground. Spectators craned their necks
when a small key was brought in and
placed beside the rugs.
Entered then the bride with a group
of friends. From another angle stalk.
