Wedding bells were heard pealing merrily last Sunday even if the day was rather stormy, when Miss Hilda Bakken, youngest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Andrew Bakken, was united in marriage to Enoch Magnus. Miss Hilda is a bright, lovable girl. She has always lived in the vicinity of Ridgeway, and about three years ago her father bought the Refdahl property and moved into town. While her brother has been in business she has clerked in his store, winning many friends by her bright, happy disposition. The groom is the third son of ex-supervisor Sam Magnus and has always lived at home. He is an honest, industrious young man and will surely make a good home for his bride. The congratulations of the entire community go to this worthy young couple.
