EVANSVILLE: (Special Correspondence)
A very pretty wedding took place at the home of the bride's parents
three miles northeast of Evansville Thursday, when Miss Mary Onken was
united in marriage with John Tonjes. Rev. C.D. Nuaffer tied the knot
which bound these two young people together for life. The ceremony was
witnessed by a large number of invited relatives and friends. The bride
is the eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Hiram Onken and is a young lady
of many accomplishments. The groom is a young man of excellent
qualities. Mr. and Mrs. Tonjes will reside on the Renchler farm. We
extend congratulations.
