The marriage of Joe O. Evans and Miss De Frances Madison occurred at the Christian parsonage last Sunday morning at 9 o’clock, Rev. I. H. Fuller officiating. None were present except Mrs. E. E. Lehenon, John Madison and the preacher and his family. This was a complete surprise to the Madison family and the near friends of Mr. Evans. They left at 9:35 for Creston where they will make a short stop and then proceed to a little town on the Diagonal railroad, south from Afton Junction, where Mr. Evans has a position with Elgin Creamery company. Both bride and groom are well and favorably known here.
