A very beautiful home wedding was celebrated last Saturday evening, Sept. 13, at seven o’clock at the home of the bride’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. Henry Goocher, 220 Third Ave. East, when Miss Gladys E. Goocher was united in marriage to Robert J. Mack, of Minneapolis, Minn. in the presence of a few immediate relatives, Rev. E. G. Copeland officiating, using the beautiful ring service. Following the ceremony, the company sat down to a splendid three course dinner served in the dining room. The bride is well known to the people of Cresco. She graduated from the Cresco high school, from college in Peoria, Ill., and also from the art Institute of Minneapolis, Minn. She has successfully taught in the public schools of West Union, Iowa, and Plainview, Minn., and is at present attending the collegiate Business Institute of Minneapolis, where she will graduate next January. She is an accomplished young lady, and has many very excellent qualities.
The groom is coxswain on the Battleship Charleston, which is now in day-dock at Bremerton, Wash. He enlisted in the U. S. Navy two and a half years ago, has been twenty-two times across the Atlantic and has had three encounters with German submarines. He is at presently on an extended furlough. Their large circle of friends extend congratulations and hearty best wishes.
Mr. and Mrs. Mack left on the early morning train for Minneapolis and will reside for the present at Curtis Courts, Minneapolis, but will later in the year make their home at Seattle, Wash.
