Last Wednesday, at 4 p. m., at the home of the bride’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. Ole Sanderson, their eldest daughter Miss Ethel was united in wedlock with Mr. Fred Koch, the pastor of the Untied Lutheran church tying the nuptial knot that made these young people happy. Only immediate relatives of the bride and groom witnessed the event. They were the recipients of many costly gifts. The bride was beautifully dressed in white messaline, carrying red roses and was attended by her maids, Miss Leona Koch and Sarah Sanderson. The groom wore a suit of dark blue and his attendants were Roy Koch and Roy Sanderson. Miss Nettie Koch played the wedding march, a choice selection from Mendelssohn. After the ceremony congratulations and a three course supper followed, to which all did justice. They will make their home on the farm of the groom near Otter Creek, where all new buildings were recently erected. Here may they dwell together in health and happiness as they travel together along the rugged highway of life.
