Crawfordsville Weekly Journal 4-8-1893 p 1 c4 -- At the residence of the bride's mother near Wingate, Montgomery County on the evening of March 30, Joseph L. Dunkin and Ida M. Coon were united in marriage by Rev. RJ Zuck. The rooms were handsomely decorated with flower and evergreens. Loving hands had transformed one corner of a room into a bower where the young couple stood during the ceremony. Above their heads the decorations consisted of two hearts blended together. A large number of guests were present and after the knot was securely tied all were served with a bountiful supper. The favors were daisies and rose buds tied with white ribbon. Many warm congratulations followed during the evening and all went merry as a marriage bell. On the following evening a host of friends were entertained at the hospital home of Mr. and Mrs. Edward Dunkin, parents of the groom in Fountain County. Here the young couple are to make their home. The groom is an industrious farmer and his bride is held in high esteem by her associated. Long may they live to enjoy happiness and prosperity.
