Decatur County Journal
April 5, l894

Yesterday morning at ll:30 o'clock MISS KATE SANKEY and THEODORE SMITH,
of Lamoni, were married at the home of the bride, on north School
Street, in the presence of a number of friends and relatives, by REV.
GEORGE HUGHES.

The bridal costume was pink.   The decorations of the room were smilax
and lillies of the valley.

The young couple is well known to our readers, the bride being a
daughter of E.J. SANKEY and prominent in the social circles of our city.
The groom is a son of J.R. SMITH, a leading farmer and stock raiser of
Lamoni.  They received many elegant and useful presents.

They left on the afternoon train for Kansas City and other points, where
they will enjoy a brief honeymoon, after which they will make their home
near Lamoni.  Our best wishes go with them.
