The bride is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Adolph P. Heisdorf, Upper Falls road, route 2, Sheboygan, and she was given in marriage by her father.

Best man was Roland C. Skarda, Beloit, the bridegroom's brother, and Jerome A. Heisdorf, similarly related to the bride, was the groomsman. Guests were ushered by John Siegworth and Wallace Reding, cousins of the bride. During the nuptials, a trio, Miss Mary Kolbeck, Miss Mary Ann Braun and Mrs. Albert Ehren sang "Come Holy Ghost," "O Lord I Am Not Worthy," and a hymn honoring the Blessed Virgin. Miss Kolbeck presented "Panis Angelicus" as a solo. Mrs. Ehren played the accompaniment.
