MILTON G. IRWIN WINS A BRIDE
MERRILL POSTMASTER AND MISS MARIE HORTON UNITED IN MARRIAGE

Merrill Record: Thursday morning, May 1st, at the home of the groom’s mother, Mrs. Debbie C. Irwin, at 7 o’clock, occurred the marriage of Miss Marie Landis Horton and Milton G. Irwin. Rev. J. E. Hill performed the ceremony in the presence of a few intimate friends and relatives of the contracting parties.

Both of the young people are too well known in this vicinity to need an introduction here. The bride is the daughter of Mrs. S. A. Horton, of Merrill. She is a young lady of pleasing personality and has a host of friends in this vicinity. For a number of years she has been a successful school teacher.

The groom is the son of Mrs. Debbie C. Irwin of Merrill. He is a graduate of the Merrill public school and a veteran of the World War. He was appointed postmaster during President Harding’s administration, which position he now holds. He is popular in Merrill business and social circles.

Immediately following the ceremony at the home, Mr. and Mrs. Irwin left by auto for a two week’s wedding trip to Wessington Springs, Pierre, and other South Dakota points. On their return about May 15th, they will make their home at the Irwin residence where they will be at home to their friends after May 15th.
