HYMENEAL.
Keiser-Potratz Nuptials.
The following item we clip from last week’s Prairie du Chien Courier. The bride needs no introduction to young people of Decorah as she lived here a number of years. She will have the congratulations of many Decorah friends.
Lawrence Kieser and Olga Potratz sort of surprised their many friends last Saturday by taking a morning train to La Crosse, and while there were united in marriage. On their return Saturday morning they were given a rousing reception by their many friends who escorted them to their newly furnished rooms over Garvey’s dry goods store. The groom is a son of Mr. and Mrs. George Kieser and holds a responsible position in the employ of Uncle Sam at the city post office. The bride is a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Potratz and has those charms of womanhood that make a happy home. We join with a host of friends in wishing them a continuous honeymoon.

Transcriber’s Note: The groom’s last name is spelled two different ways.
