The bridal couple were attended by Joseph Walton, brother of the bride, and Miss Mabel Pollett. The wedding march was played by W. J. Mead and Mrs. Pearl Mead.
Every preparation had been made for a good time, and following the ceremony the guests were seated to a most sumptuous repast, dantily{sp} served at flower decorated tables. As soon as all were served the tables were cleared and the young people enjoyed themselves in dancing until the morning dawn.
Those from a distance attending the wedding were Mr. and Mrs. Richard Cahl and daughter from Minneapolis, Miss Eva Conway of Oelwein, and Lloyd and Lottie Christen of Decorah.
The wedding presents were very numerous, useful and valuable.
