MARRIED
Wednesday evening, at 8 o'clock, February 7, 1912, at the home of the bride’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. Henry Rethamel, occurred the marriage of their second daughter, Anna, to Mr. L. W. Fingalsen, of Nora Springs, Iowa; Rev. A. F. Damraw performed the ceremony, and the Wedding March was played by Miss Inez Evans, of Mason City, Iowa.
The bride was beautifully attired in a gown of lavender crepe de chine with pearl trimming and carried a bouquet of white roses. The groom wore the conventional black. The bride was attended by Miss Ada Reinhart, and Mr. Severt Knutson acted as best man.
After the ceremony, a most bountiful supper was prepared for all who were present and a most enjoyable evening was spent by all. Those who witnessed the ceremony were: Mr. and Mrs. Fred Heimerdinger and family, Albert Reinhart and family, Frank Dreckman and family, Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Clynch, Mr. and Mrs. John Brophy, Mr. and Mrs. Michael Norton, Mr. and Mrs. Thos. Hooper; Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Price, Mr. and Mrs. Mike and Fred Derr, Arthur Hoppie and family, Fred Decker and family, Wm Shafer and family, Wm. Rethamel and family, Mr. and Mrs. Fred Rethamel, Lew and Wm. Moravec, Mike Derr, Jr., Henry Knutsen, Joe. Drahos. Those from a distance were: Mr. and Mrs. Orvine Smith, Hazel Haefner of Volney, Ia., Anna Kleinow of McGregor, Ia., Inez Evans of Mason City, Mrs. Alice Furnass sister of the groom of Nora Springs, Ia., and Miss Mary Foley of Elma, Iowa.
At a late hour they all departed for their homes wishing the newly wedded couple a prosperous married life. The young couple were the recipients of very many beautiful presents.
The bride will be missed by all her friends who spoke nothing but good of her jolly and kind hearted ways.
We are sorry to state that they will not make their future home among’st their many friends. Mr. and Mrs. Fingalsen departed for Nora Springs Saturday afternoon where they intend to make their future home.
