MARRIED IN CHICAGO
Mr. O.P. Doyle and Miss Laura Severna Mulry



Mr. O.P. Doyle and Miss Laura Severna Mulry were united in marriage at St.
Ambrose church in Chicago Tuesday morning, September 14, the pastor, Father
Foley, officiating. Miss Marie Mulry, sister of the bride, was
bridesmaid,and Mr. Oscar Doyle, brother of the groom, was best man. Mr. and
Mrs. Doyle intend spending ten days sightseeing in Chicago and neighboring
points and they will visit friends at Dubuque on their way to Emmetsburg.
They will reside with Mr. Doyle's mother in this city during the fall and
winter months.
The bride is a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas J. Mulry, who lived in
Emmetsburg about a quarter of a century ago. From this city they moved to
Chicago, where they subsequently resided. Miss Mulry has on various
occasions visited with relatives and friends in this locality and she has
impressed all who met her as a lady of pleasing personality and of true
worth. The many friends of the family will, we are sure, be glad to welcome
her to Emmetsburg. The groom is the second son of Mrs. O.P. Doyle, one of
the esteemed ladies of Emmetsburg. Mr. Doyle grew to manhood on the farm and
moved to this city with his mother something over a year ago. He is a
carpenter by trade and is one of the most exemplary young men of our
community. The Democrat unites with the many relatives and friends of the
newly-wedded couple in extending hearty good wishes for their future
happiness.

Visited Several Localities
Patrick JOYNT and his daughter, Miss Lottie, arrived home from eastern Iowa
last Wednesday. They left Emmetsburg several weeks ago. They spent some time
at the home of Drs. Robert and Martin JOYNT of LeMars. Dr. Robert JOYNT has
one of the finest dental offices in northern Iowa and Dr. Martin JOYNT is
equipping a fine office adjoining his brother's quarters. Both have good
practices. From LeMars Mr JOYNT and his daughter went to Marcus, the home of
Dr. Michael JOYNT. He was finishing a fine new residence and was about to
move into it. He likes his location and is kept very busy. Later Mr. JOYNT
and his daughter visited Mr and Mrs. L.J. MURPHY and other relatives at
Sioux City. They were royally entertained and it was with great reluctance
that they took their departure. They next enjoyed a trip across the state to
see relatives and friends in Dubuque county. They spent a couple of weeks at
the home of Mr and Mrs. Thomas DUNN. Mr DUNN is a brother-in-law of Mr
JOYNT. Mr JOYNT does not think that eastern Iowa land is as good as the soil
of this section. In the vicinity of Farley and Dyersville and at neighboring
places the frost of a short time ago did a great deal of damage to the corn
crip. The losses between New Hampton and Charles City were also quite
numerous. Mr. JOYNT says he would like to tell the Democrat about the many
interesting things he saw while away, but fears our space would not allow
him to go into detail.

picnic being held there, and had made one flight before the one in which he
had met his death...
