MARRIED.
Tuesday morning, Jan. 16, at 10 o’clock at the M. E. parsonage occurred the marriage of Mike A. Derr and Miss Anna Dusheck, Rev. Kirwin pronounced the words that made them man and wife. The bride was charmingly gowned in a white satin dress with wreath and veil and carried an arm bouquet of pink and white carnations. She was attended by Clara Omacht, a niece of the groom, who wore a dress of white silk crepe and carried white chrysanthemums. The groom wore a suit of dark blue serge with a button-hole bouquet and was attended by John Dusheck, a brother of the bride. The bride is the oldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. James Dusheck and is a prominent young lady whom makes friends wherever she goes. The groom, the youngest son of Mr. and Mrs. Michael Derr, is a capable young man and no doubt will make an ideal husband for the lady of his choice. About fifty relatives and friends gathered at the bride’s home which was prettily decorated for the occasion to help them celebrate. The day was spent in music, songs and dancing later in the evening. The happy couple left Wednesday noon on their wedding trip to St. Cloud, Minn., for a week’s visit with relatives there. A long and happy married life is the wish of their many friends.
