George Coleman and Miss Grace Nicholson were married at the home of the bride's parents, two and one-half miles east of Calmar, on the evening of the 5th inst., Rev. C. A. Parkin officiating. Next day the happy couple started for Ashton, S. D., where they will probably establish their home. Mr. Coleman is well and favorably known here, where he has been in the employ of the railway company for eight or ten years, and the young wife is the adopted daughter of Supervisor M. J. Nicholson and is an estimable young woman. Their many friends here wish the young couple a safe and prosperous voyage in life.

A Quiet Wedding,
Calmar Courier—Last evening, April 5th, at about six o’clock, a quiet wedding took place at the home of M. J. Nicholson, east of town, when Miss Grace Nicholson and George Coleman were united by marriage, Rev. C. A. Parkin performing the ceremony. The young pair are both very worthy people and well mated. The groom has for many years been employed as fireman on the switch engine here. The bridal couple took the early train for the west this morning to Elk Point, S. D., to visit friends, and thence to Ashton, where George has business interests, with a brother. We wish them much joy.
