The wedding of Catherine Deitermann and Bernard Niehus was solemnized at St.
Mary's church in Remsen on Tuesday morning at 9:45 o'clock, Rev. Father
Fisch officiating. The ceremony was performed in the presence of the near
relatives and many of the friends of the couple. John Deitermann, a brother
of the bride, acted as best man while Miss Theresa Niehus, a cousin of the
groom, was maid of honor. The bride wore a gown of white messaline trimmed
with silk overlace and wore a veil. The young couple entertained a few of
the near relatives during the day, and will leave in about a week for
Geddes, S.D., to settle on the farm owned by Mrs. Elizabeth Niehus, the
groom's mother.
