Pringle & Pracht
Married at the residence of the
bride's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Fred
Pracht, on Jan. 1, 1894, at 7 p. m. James
Pringle and Miss Stella E. Pracht, both
of Middle creek.
The solemn and impressive words
which joined two hearts together were
spoken by Rev. Henry Pracht, of Burns.
The bride wore a dress of pale blue silk
with silk lace trimming, no jewelry except wedding ring and watch, a gift from
the groom. The groom was attired in
the conventional black.
Forty friends and relatives who wit-
nessed the ceremony sat down to a feast
prepared by the hostess. The tables
fairly groaned with everything good to
eat, After supper the time was spent in
singing, playing games and telling old
stories. A happier crowd we never met,
every body at their best.
The bride and groom are among Middle creek's most popular and respected young people and will be
greatly missed by their young associates. They have the congratulations of
their many friends. A number of pre-
