The Chariton Leader, Chariton, Iowa Thursday, March 29, 1906 LUCAS LEDGER ITEMS: O.T. SKIDMORE and wife have been entertaining a baby boy at their home since Saturday morning. We notice by the Creston Advertiser that M.E. COOK, formerly of Lucas but lately of San Antonio, Texas, contemplates moving his family back to Creston. At the home of CHAS. WAUGH and wife, of Norwood, March 21 at 7 p.m. occurred the wedding of their daughter, MISS JOSIE WAUGH to OTTIS MASON. Esq. John Crawford performed the ceremony that made them man and wife. F.B. HALL received word today that his son ALVA who is working in a lead mine at Duenweg, Mo., had the misfortune to fall in the shaft last Saturday injuring his back and cutting an ugly gash on his head. The doctor pronounced no bones broken and that he thought ALVA would get well. Last Tuesday morning Messrs. J.D. BEAMAN, C.A. WILLIAMS, N.F. BAKER and W.E. BROWN started on their annual trip to Mexico to look after their mining property there. They will go by the way of Pueblo, Colo., thence to Parral and Mesa Sandae, Mexico. At the latter place they leave the railroad for a three-days journey on mule back. They will be absent about a month. On March 21st occurred one of the most beautiful home weddings of the season, when MISS GRACE WALLACE and J.R. MANLEY, both of Norwood were united in marriage. The ceremony was performed at the home of the bride's parents, GEO. WALLACE and wife at high noon. Rev. Wm. Wallace performed the impressive ceremony which thus happily united the lives of two of the most popular young people of Norwood. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Copied by Nancee(McMurtrey)Seifert October 4, 2004 [email protected]
