"The Kansas City Journal" (Missouri) Saturday, December 12, 1903 MARRIED BESIDE A COFFIN. Toledo, O., Dec. 11.--Miss Hettie GILES and Mr. A. C. NORRIS, of Rockford, Ill., were married today beside the bier of the bride's dead mother at Bowling Green, O. Just prior to the funeral service, Rev. Frank ESSERT performed the wedding ceremony for the daughter and then conducted the mother's funeral. The latter was killed last Monday by being struck by a stone thrown into the air as the result of a blast in a sewer. ====================================================== (I have no connection with these people but I'd appreciate knowing if you found this posting helpful.) ======================================================
