I translated the following article from Der Carroll Demokrat, a German-language newspaper published in Carroll, Iowa, between about 1874 and 1920. It was originally published on 20 October 1893. Any information in brackets or notes at the end are my own explanations. It reads as follows:

Mr. Pastor G. Theiss and Miss Maria Hermann, daughter of Mr. Pastor Chr. F. Hermann of Arcadia will celebrate their marriage on the 24th of October. The wedding will take place at 10:30 a.m., in the Zion Evangelical Lutheran Church, and the father of the bride will perform the solemn ceremony of marriage. The Demokrat also wishes the couple happiness and blessings in their marriage.
