Bostock-Hunter.

Announcements were received last week of the marriage of Mr. Oscar Lee Bostock and Miss Anna Edith Hunter at Des Moines Wednesday, September 28, 1910.

Mr. and Mrs. Bostock are excellent young people, both Van Buren county products and both well equipped to build a happy home. Mr. Bostock is a son of Mr. and Mrs. John Bostock. He is industrious, honorable, and gentlemanly. Mrs. Bostock is a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. William Hunter and she is well prepared to become the “lady of the house” at “The Maples,” their new home west of Bonaparte where they will be receiving friends after November 2. The many friends extend congratulations.

Mr. Bostock has purchased the farm of his father-in-law, known as “The Maples,” and Mr. and Mrs. Hunter expect to move to Bonaparte soon as Mr. Hunter’s health will permit. He has been seriously ill for about two years and has only been to town a few times during that period.
