CAME TO MEET
HER PROMISED HUSBAND.
The arrival of Miss Lillian Clark
from Tillsonburg, Ontario, mentioned
in Tuesday’s Independent, was an
item of more significance and import,
than could be supposed from the few
lines which told of her visit, for upon
Tuesday evening at 8:15 o’clock at the
rectory, she was married to Mr. Wm.
C. Farmer of this city by Rev. Geo.
D. Norton.
The groom was formerly of Tbam
esville, Ontario, but left Canada over
three years ago and has for the past
year and a half been the bread fore
man at Huffman’s bakery. The uewly
wed were to have been married a
year ago, but sickness of the young
lady’s father caused a postponement.
They will go to house-keeping at
the corner of Fourth and Ash streets
and the Independent to-gether with
many friends the groom has made
here, extend congratulations and best
wishes for long lifes of happiness.
