Hymeneal.
The residence of Mr. and Mrs. Funke, on the County Farm, Freeport, Iowa, was the scene of a very pretty wedding on Thursday, Oct. 7th, when Miss Barbara Peely was united in the bonds of matrimony to Mr. John Flueck. The nuptial knot was tied by Rev. Henry Grant of Decorah. After the usual congratulations the large company sat down to a sumptuous dinner. The bride and groom were the recipients of many useful and beautiful presents, testifying the high esteem in which the young couple were held. Their many friends join in the expression of good wishes. We understand the groom has secured a small farm in Pleasant township where he and his bride will make their home after Mr. Flueck’s time as day man at the county farm expires.
