COUPLE VOYAGE
FROM FAIRBANKS
10 MARRY HERE
_
In the presence of a few intimate I
friends. Miss Irene Roadruk and Cor-:
poral Durwood Hocker, both of Fair- j
banks, were married on Saturday'
night at the home of Mr. and Mrs.
W. H. Gilcher, at the corner of
First and C streets. The ceremony
was performed by Rev. Robert
Joseph Diven, the bride being at
tended by Mrs. Gilcher and the
groom by Mr. Gilcher. The others
present were Mrs. Sweatz, Mrs
Katherine Sholseth, and Mr. and
Mrs. R. G. Southworth.
The affair was very much in the
nature of a surprise, the plans of
the young people having been kept
secret until the last hour, and then
only a few being let in on the secret.
Both Corporal and Mrs Hocker
have a wide acquaintance in Fair
, banks and Nenana. Corporal Hocker
i has been attached to the Fairbanks
! office of the signal corps for a
number of years and is at present
acting in the capacity of cashier at
\ the station. Mrs. Hocker has held
| a position for several years at the
! Fairbanks telephone exchange.
The newly weds came to Nenana
early last week, the bride arriving
1 several days in advance, presumably
| for the purpose of spending a few
, days with friends, and during her
! stay here was the guest of Mrs.
i Sweatz. Corporal Hocker followed,
j arriving in town a couple of days
in advance of the date set for the
j wedding. They returned to the up
! per town yesterday by launch, and
! will make their future home in the
Roadruk cottage on upper Wicker
sham street.
