"The Kansas City Times" (Missouri) Thursday, June 28, 1917 "SIR, LET ME SEE YOUR CARD!" A bridal party, amid a shower of rice and popcorn, entered the Union Station shortly before 11 o'clock last night. The bride and groom rushed through the lobby and down the waiting room to the far end to their train with a group of shouting friends close behind. The bride kissed her friends good-by and the groom shook hands with his pals. All was joy and then ------ Two cops halted the newlyweds just as they were about to pass through the gate to their train. "Just a minute," said one sternly to the young man, "have you registered?" The laughter ceased, the bride's smile faded, the groom reddened, stammered an apology and asked the policeman to step aside as he had no time for trivial matters. "Nothing trivial about this," shot back the gruff policeman. "You produce your registration card or you go to the station with us." Heated argument followed in which the groom pleaded to be permitted to call Chief FIAHIVE and explain, and then threatened to sue the patrolmen; the mothers interceded and the bride started to cry. Then the "rude" cop laughed, the groom "registered" consternation, the friends shouted, the crowd in the station which had gathered around to see the excitement smiled, and the couple hurried through the gate. It had been a frameup. The bride formerly was Miss Mary Kathryn McKENNA, 3341 Baltimore Avenue, and the groom was John NANGLE, formerly of this city, now a lawyer in St. Louis. The wedding was yesterday morning and Mr. and Mrs. NANGLE were on their way to Chicago for their honeymoon before "settling down" in St. Louis. ====================================================== (I have no connection with this family but I'd appreciate knowing if you found this posting helpful.) johnobrien@kc.rr.com ======================================================
