Decatur County Journal

May l2, l898

MR. CLEM JENKINS and MISS ELLA ONEY were married Sunday morning by ELDER

STEVENS of the Christian Church.

MR. JENKINS had his home prepared for his bride and there the ceremony

was performed in the presence of the groom's brother and the bride's

sister. The happy couple stood under a canopy made of the stars and

stripes while the knot was tied.

These young people are deservedly popular. The groom is a prominent

stock buyer and is associated with his father as a brick contractor. He

owns a well-stocked and well-improved farm in Center Township.

The bride is one of Decatur County's best teachers, being a graduate of

the normal institute.

The JOURNAL joins their many friends in felicitations and hopes for

future happiness.
