We put up a* our chain pkm Col. Nadir dome, you West Sid era, trot out your man. If there is one thing more than an other that McHenry village needs it is a street sprinkler, as the dust new almost unbearable* It has been suggested that if the village would furnish the sprinkler the business men thruout the village would hire a man and team to run it. It is a good sug­ gestion, therefore we move that a com mittee of two be appointed by the chair to procure a good street sprink ler at once, at a cost not to exeeed $75. Who seconds the motion? Our public school closed on Friday last with appropriate exercises. On aeeount of other business we were pre vented from being present, as we had intended, but we are informed that the exercises were of the most interesting character. At the close the principal Mr. Jack in an, was presented by the scholars of the higher department with Shakespeare's Works, in three vol­ umes, a beautiful volume on mythol­ ogy and other handsome remembrances. At the West Side school appropriate exercises were also held and the teach­ er, F. L».

VflfflNG-HAYES MirriAlS Milder, the bride, accompanied by her sister, Miss LaNette Whiting, as bridesmaid and Ray McGee of Wood­ stock, a friend of the gro^m, came down the aisle of the clmrch and marched to the foot of the altar, where they were met by the groom and the ceremony was performed. The bride could not have looked sweeter. Gowned in a white suit of Bedford cord and wearing a white Pan­ ama hat trimmed with bld£k velvet ribbon and large pink roses, she easily won the admiration of all who wit* nessed the marriage. The gown of the bridesmaid was a tan French serge suit. She also wore a tan hat to match which was trimmed with varied roses. After the ceremonies at the church, the bridal party, together with 100 in­ vited guests, gathered at the home of the bride's parents, where a sumptuous six-course dinner was served, Mrs, John Niesen of this village catering. The Whiting home presented a scene that was a treat for the eye, the dec-; orations used for this special occasion being white tulle, white roses, snow­ balls, carnations, ferns and spiraea. The bride is the accomplished daugh­ ter of Mr. and Mrs. D. A. Whiting, who reside northwest of town. She lias always lived at home and has the acquaintance of hundreds of admiring friends. The groom is a son of Mr. and Mrs. John Hayes of Woodstock. He is a popular employe of the Oliver type­ writer factory, where he has been dur­ ing the past five or six years. The happy pair left that same even­ ing for a short honeymoon and will be at home- after June 25 at 928 Irving Ave., Woodstock, wh^re a newly fur­ nished home is already awaiting them. Congratulations. ^ MARSHALL W. MERRMAN •m PASSED AWAY AT HI* BORE HERE LAST PIUSAY MORMDIQ WEMHNG SOLEMNIZED- AT PATRICK'S CHURCH HERE A wedding that was probably o«4 of the prettiest and most impressive ever solemnized in McHenry took place at St. Patrick's Catholic church here at nine o'clock on Wednesday morning of last week, June 4, the happy principals of this impressive event being Miss Edith May Whiting of this place and Mr. Edmond L. Hayes of Woodstock. The ceremony was performed by Rev. D. Lehane of this place, who had the assistance of Revs. Conway and Keen an of Woodstock. James Gannon, John Conway and John Hayes of Woodstock and Raymond Whiting of Lake Geneva acted as ushers. To the beautiful strains of a wedding march Marshall W. Merriman, one of our best and most highly respected citi­ zens, passed away at his late home in this village at one o'clock last week Friday morning, after having been confined to his home and bed for six long, weary weeks. All that loving hands could do dur­ ing the time, of his illness was done. His passing out was like his life, quiet and peaceful, with his wife, daughter and her husband at his bedside. The deceased was born in the village of Greene, ShenangO county, N. Y., on March 22, 1831. He came west in 1853, settling on a farm near Wood­ stock. He was a carpenter contractor by trade, but jfter coming west took up farming. On our nation's birthday in the year of 1857 he was united in marriage to Miss Louisa Terwilliger, the ceremony having been performed at Lake Geneva, Wis. To this union two children were born: Elmer E., who died at the age of twenty, and Cora L., now Mrs. I. E. Mason, who resides southwest of this village. Mrs. Terwilliger passed away in March 1894. On May 13 of the following yeai* he married Mrs. Maggie Newell. At about the time of his second mar­ riage he left the farm and moved to this village, where he has continued to make his home up to the time of his death. Mr. Merriman was a member of the Masonic Lodge, No. 158, of this place. Uncle Marshall was known for his kindness and sterling qualities, which constituted his religion. The funeral took place from his late home on Elm street at one o'clock on Monday afternoon. All who knew the * < ' : ' 1 - ^ > , deneed by the large attendance of old friends • and neighbors of the county and the beautiful floral offerings at the funeral. The services were conducted by Rev. McHenry, formerly pastor of the Universalist church here, but now of Oshkosh, Wis. The pastor was very much beloved by the deceased and it was for this reason that Mr. McHenry was brought here to perform the last sad rites over the remains of our esteemed citizen. The pastor in his sermon gave loving and comforting words to the bereaved relatives. The remains were interred in the Holcombville cemetery beside those of his first wife and his son. He leaves'a Moving wife, one daugh­ ter and several grandchildren, besides a large circle of friends and acquaint­ ances to mourn. By the death of Mr. Merriman the community has lost and will miss a most respected neighbor and friend. •ar CLASS POEM (BT AGNES TISCH) DEBRECHT m QUALITY SERVICE RIGHT PRICES mm -Phone 6a5-M-j> ' Johnsburgh, IlK mm 300 yards of Lace. and Insertion, at pet' Mii yardl^' V-,, .< • . ;-v. .v4.- ,;pfep 'r-'l 2P0 yards of Laces, Insertions and E)m- * broideries, ^t per yard. .4 v • }i£'• bolt of regular Cors<et: |?oy^ per 1 0 c " IM'-ipi: Handkerchiefs i&v Schoal Children* twQv f o r • • • * • « • • • • • • • • » * » . • • • • • • • • • • • • • « • • OH SALE OilLY ONE DAY," WEDNESDAY, JURE 18 Listen to my simple story Of these seniors bright and happy.
