WRONG AGAIN.
We received a communication this week correcting a statement made in
DEMOCRAT of a previous issue. The DEMOCRAT stated that the Hansen-Mousel and
Konz-Mousel double wedding was the first double wedding performed in St.
Mary’s church. The letter admits that it was the first double wedding in
the new church but states that twenty-three years ago—February seventh,
1888—occurred the marriage of Peter Schnee and Miss Katie Eulberg, Greg
Umhoefer and Miss Emma Schnee. Rev. Father Luehrsman performed the
ceremony.
