MARRIAGES:

JOHNSTON - WAYNICK. -- At the residence of the bride's father, DR. D.W.
WAYNICK, of Chariton, Iowa, Thursday, Dec. 28th, 1876, by Rev. J. Stuart
Reed, MR. ABNER JOHNSTON and MISS LOUISA G. WAYNICK.

Tis said that "matches are made in Heaven," but this one was made in
Oskaloosa, where GERTA was keeping books, and she kept them so well that the
gentleman concluded to place his happiness in her keeping. And he has
chosen well, as GERTA possesses the high attributes of the true woman, and
will make his home a "well-spring of joy." MR. JOHNSTON is one of the
prosperous young business men of "proud Mahaska." We hope the attachment
may be as enduring as time, with nothing to ruffle feelings or tucker them
out, but that everything may be nice and easy running along the road of life
