Last week at the home of the bride's parents Mr. and Mrs. J.W. Mieras
of Monroe S.D., occurred the marriage of their daughter Minnie to Arie Raak
of Orange City. The newly weds are both well and favorably known in this
community. The bride was born here and spent her early girlhood days here.
The groom is a son of Mrs. Martin Raak of near Carnes. They will make their
future home on the home place of the groom's mother 1 mile south and 5 miles
east. We wish them much joy and happiness in their married life.

The newlyweds arrived here Tuesday and on Wednesday evening a surprise
party was planned and successfully carried out at the P. Vander Wel home by
relatives of both the bride and groom.
