MARRIED

BRIGGS-GILLEN At the residence of the bride's parents, Lamoni, Iowa, Wednesday, November 28th, 1894, at 7:30 p.m. by Pres. Joseph SMITH, Mr. Damon BRIGGS, son of Mr. and Mrs. E. C. BRIGGS, to Miss Nora GILLEN, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. W. GILLEN. A large concourse of relatives and friends witnessed the ceremony and after it partook of a sumptuous wedding feast. A large list of wedding presents from far and near, give evidence of widespread acquaintance and warm friendship for the wedded pair. The list will be presented next week. To one as a former pupil, and both as friends, we extend hearty congratulations.
