OCONTO FALLS -- Levi Lane, who has been sojourning this past six months at Boot Lake, returned home last week, and on his way down stopped at Mountain to witness the marriage of John Hind.  The marriage ceremony was performed by A.C.

Francis Lamson of Coleman, and Margaret C. Bowers of Pound, were united in Marriage at the M.E. Parsonage, on the 18th.  Rev. W. D. Cox officiating.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Mr. and Mrs. Walter H. Grunert, who were married at the residence of the bride’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. R. W. Orr, at Akron, Ohio, Wednesday of last week, arrived in the city Tuesday night and are temporarily sojourning at the residence of Mrs. Grunert’s uncle and aunt, Major and Mrs. E. Scofield.  Mr. Grunert has leased the DonLevy cottage which was built last summer on the corner of Stand and First streets, and is having it furnished and otherwise made ready for occupancy.  A card accompanying the marriage announcement states that the happy couple will be “at home” to their friends Tuesdays and Thursdays in April, and as Mr. Grunert and his estimable wife, formerly Miss Agnes Orr, are both popular young society people, there is little doubt that their legion of friends will avail themselves of the opportunity to extend cordial greetings and welcome.  The Reporter tenders congratulations, accompanied with the hope that they may experience all the bliss it is permitted mortals to enjoy on this earthly pilgrimage.

Abrams – We were notified to-day of the marriage of Jerry Crane and Miss Maud Greenman.  How is it Jerry?  If so, are not cigars in order.
