A pretty home wedding took place at the E. C. Kaiser home Wednesday, Jan 11th, when Emma Kaiser became the bride of Alfred Hale Corlett. Rev. Bosholm officiated, using the impressive ring ceremony. The event took place at 1:00 o'clock, when to the sweet strains of Lohengrin's Bridal Chorus, played by Mrs. W. E. Kaiser, the bridal procession consisting of the bride and groom and their attendants, Helen Dettmer and Edward Kaiser, took their places under a large horse shoe suspended from an arch, where they were joined by Rev. Bosholm, who then performed the ceremony which made the worthy couple one. After the ceremony a bounteous dinner was served. The young people left on Thursday morning for Oskaloosa and other points in the state. On their return they will take up their abode in their new home on a farm near Farmersburg. The good wishes of their many friends go with them and all join in wishing them a long, happy and prosperous wedded life. The bride's brothers, L. H. Kaiser, of Smithville, Ark., and E. F. Kaiser, who is attending the Wisconsin Agricultural College, were in attendance at the wedding.
