Close-Garver
March
19, 1891
At the residence of the bride's
parents, Inwood, Iowa, by Rev. Fracker, Sunday, March 15, 1891, T. I. Close and
Miss Eugenie Garver.
The balmy air of our pleasant March, was made to vibrate by the chiming
notes of "wedding bells," when Rev. Fracker stepped into the residence of Mr.
and Mrs. D.C. Garver, last Sunday morning, about half past eight o'clock. None
but the members of the family knew that the ceremony was to take place so soon,
but when the reverend gentleman stepped upon the threshold, vague suspicious
flew to our minds eye, and we guessed the sequel.
Tom and Eugenie were among the first of our young people and have been
active members in society circles here, and though the knot has been tied, we
are happy to state what they will remain with us. As they now, full of hope and
promise, "launch out together in life, we would wish them nothing but a calm and
silvery sea, wafted by balmy zephers into paths of prosperity and peace. But,
sometimes adverse winds will blow, and there are rocks and reefs to shun, as
well as paths where profit is shorn of all but promise. However this may be
with them, they have the heartfelt wish, of the HERALD, for long lives with much
happiness.
