MR. WM. F. GHORMLEY, of Des Moines and MISS FRANCES E. GARDNER were united in marriage at high noon, Dec. 25, at the home of the bride's father in Leon.
MR. GHORMLEY is engaged in the insurance business and resides at Unviersity Place, Des Moines, where the wedded pair will make their home for the present. MISS GARDNER is the youngest child of W.A. GARDNER of this city and has many friends who regret to lose her presence. She has been an earnest teacher in the Sunday School of the Christian Church of which she was an exemplary member and where she will be greatly missed.
The best wishes and friendly interest of a host of friends go with them.
