Married.
A large number of friends and relatives gathered at the home of C.
L. Hillebrand last evening to witness the ceremony which united in holy
matrimony his daughter, Lillie, and Mr. Will Becker, Rev. Mr. Dulitz
officiating. Mr. Becker is the popular tinner in Pew Bros'. store and
his bride is a beautiful and accomplished young lady, beloved by a large
circle of friends.
The home was becomingly decorated and immediately after the
ceremony a delicious supper was partaken of. The band of which Mr.
Becker is a member, appeared on the scene and rendered a charming
concert on the lawn as a token of goodwill and friendship for the young
couple. Before going away the band boys were treated to the good things of the house.
A large number of useful and ornamental presents expressed the
goodwill of many friends to the young couple who will immediately take
up their residence in town.
