Among the Hills

Alt--Hays Nuptials
William Alt of near Audubon and
Miss Nina Hays, daughter of Frew
Hayes and wife of Greeley township
were united in the holy bonds of
wedlock at the beautiful home of the
bride's parents, Wednesday, February
26, 1908, Rev. Cross of the Union
Baptist church officiating.

The bride is an accomplished young
lady, loved by all. She was born
and grew to womanhood in the
wholesome atmosphere of Rose Hill
Farm, which was also the scene of
her union with Mr. Alt. She has
done much good in this world as a
successful school teacher and an active
Christian lady. When this
stalwart tiller of the earth leads her
away to be his helpmate in one of
the noblest callings that ever occupied
man, there will be a painful
vacancy in east Greeley society. It
is sufficient to say of the groom that
reports make him in everyway worthy
of this flower he has plucked
from Rose Hill Farm.

This happy couple will begin their
wedded career on the old Alt homestead
in Hamlin township.
We saw them follow hand in hand,
Into the battle smoke;
This ensign floating in the breeze--
"Upon you take my yoke."

Note: Parents of Nina Belle Hays were Frew Hays, Jr. and Louisa Maria Reed.
Parents of William Charles Alt were William Alt and Elizabeth "Lizzie" Lang. He was married 1st to Nina Belle Hays, 2nd to Alice Mae Turner and 3rd to Rose C. "Rosie" Axelsen.
