The estheable young bride needs no introduction as she has resided in this vicinity since girlhood, and is beloved by all for her kind disposition and rare womanly qualities. The groom is well and favorably known as an industrious and progressive young man and has the esteem of all. Many and valuable presents testify to the popularity of the bride and groom. They left via the Great Northern for a sojourn at Winnipeg, after which they will be at home on their farm near the new end town.
