MARRIED.

THEOPHILUS--THOMPSON--Hon. William Theophilus to Miss Minnie A. Thompson, at the residence of the bride's parents by the Rev. Mr. McConnell of Cresco, at 10 a. m., June 7th, 1888.

The ceremony, which was very impressive and interesting was performed by the bedside of Mrs. Gray, the bride's grandmother, who is very ill.

Quite a number came from Cresco, among whom were Mr. and Mrs. C. K. Berg, Miss Beadle and Miss Mason also Miss Anna Jones of Lime Springs.

The bridal party took the noon train for St. Paul yesterday. They will go from there to St. Louis by water, and expect to return about the 16th.

Many beautiful presents and good wishes were showered on the happy couple.--LeRoy Independent.
