Hanford Journal Hanford, Kings Co., California Tuesday, 21 APRIL 1896 ************************************** [from Grangeville column] -- The home of Mr.&Mrs. STACEY was the scene of a very pretty wedding Wednesday evening, when their only daughter, Miss Katie, was united in marriage to Harry HORLOCK. Their home being rather small and their immediate relatives being numerous, the invitations were limited on that account. The wedding had been set for 8 o'clock and shortly after, the bride, leaning on the arm of the groom, came into the room and stood under a canopy of roses, suspended from which was a large floral horseshoe that had been arranged by Mrs. J.B. NEWPORT. The ceremony was performed by Rev. H.W. WALTZ and was very impressive. The friends of the bride and groom had scarcely commenced to congratulate them when sounds of pans and kettles were heard in the distance and as the sounds came nearer it was evident that they were a party of charivariers. It proved true and the bride and groom had to go out on the porch and treat the boys. At half past 9 all sat down to a bountiful suppe r, prepared by Mrs. STACEY and Mrs. NEWPORT. A very pleasant hour was spent discussing the menu and the bright prospects of the young couple. Shortly before the time set for the couple to leave for Goshen, some 15 of the young friends of the bride and groom came in to congratulate and wish them "Bon voyage." It was altogether a very pleasant affair and the couple left amid a shower of rice and old slippers, one of the latter being the identical one used to chastise the bride when a little tad. The bride was attired in a very pretty costume of cream colored Nuns veiling, trimmed with deep lace. She wore white roses and orange blossoms and carried a bunch of Marechal Niel roses. The room was attired in the conventional evening suit. A number of useful and pretty presents were received from their relatives and friends. The young people left for Los Angeles by the midnight train, which city is to be their future home and where they will be very pleased to see any of their friends . DEATH -- KURTZ -- In Lemoore, April 9th, infant son of Mr.&Mrs. J.E. KURTZ. DEATH -- SHIEL -- in Lemoore, April 18, 1896, Mrs. Jane SHIEL, aged 77 years. [from Lemoore column] -- Chas. CALISTO, an Indian who has resided in and about town for a number of years, died at the Rancheria south of Lemoore on Sunday night last of pneumonia. For a week or 2 previous to his death he had been doctored by some fellow Indians. They had evidently sought to cure him in true Indian style by drawing a hot iron across his breast from shoulder blade to shoulder blade a half-dozen times, as the burns were plainly visible to the physician who was called to attend him during his dying hours. They had also, by means of a hot iron, made scars on his person resembling a star. [from Grangeville column] -- One of the saddest affairs that ever occurred in our little town took place Thursday evening, when Mrs. Mae DOGGETT, after a short but fearfully painful illness, died at 11 p.m. Deceased was taken sick Wednesday evening and medical help was at once called in. Drs. DUNCAN and BOND stayed all that night and the next morning, but in spite of all that the best medical skill and the loving efforts of her friends could do, she grew gradually worse until death at last relieved her of her intense suffering and robbed the husband of a loving and devoted wife, and a father of his daughter. The funeral took place from her late home, just west of town, and was attended by hosts of friends. The services were conducted by Rev. H.W. WALTZ, and in the pretty little Grangeville cemetery the mother and her little child were tenderly laid away, surrounded by a wealth of beautiful roses. The sincere and heartfelt sympathy of the whole community is extended to the str icken husband, Marshal Ney DOGGETT, who has so suddenly been bereft of both wife and child, and to her loving father, S.A. ROBERSON, of Hardwick. Mrs. DOGGETT was 20 years, 11 months old at the time of her death. LOST -- Between Lemoore and Hanford, on Monday, April 20th, a package of valuable papers, which are of no value to any one except the owner. Finder return to Mrs. L.D. COPELAND, Hotel Lucerne, Lemoore, or to this office, and receive reward. ------------------------------------------------------- 26 YEARS TOGETHER -- On the 19th day of April, 1870, in the city of Nashville, Tenn., Isadore S. LOVENTHAL and Jeanette Independence JACOBSON were united in marriage and last Sunday quietly celebrated the 26 anniversary of that event, at the Hotel Hanford in this city. Mr.&Mrs. LOVENTHAL are the popular host and hostess of the Hanford house and their many friends congratulated them on their anniversary. Mrs. LOVENTHAL is a daughter of Dr. JACOBSON of St. Louis, Missouri, and is a native of that state. Her husband says that in the long journey they have traveled, hand in hand, he has never found but 1 cause for regret in the choice he made and that is the fact that she is Missourian. Mrs. LOVENTHAL declines to enumerate the defects she has found in the man she took "for better or for worse," but says she has managed to live with him for 26 years and hopes that the dissensions in the next quarter of a century may be as few as they have been in the past. There have been many changes during the time they have lived together and they have seen life in many of its varied phases, but in all the hours of trial and prosperity life's burdens have been easier for the help they have given one another. Their anniversary was spent with their children. Several delicacies were added to the already sumptuous bill of fare of the hotel, to commemorate the day. The 'Journal' wishes them many future anniversaries, and health and prosperity through the remainder of life's journey. ------------------------------------------------------- LOCAL PARAGRAPHS -- -B.A. FASSETT has returned from an extended trip East. He went back to the Atlantic seaboard, visited Maine and then came south down through the New England states, and thence on home through Pennsylvania and the old Western states. He enjoyed the trip and is in fine health and spirits. AMBROSE SUFFREEN, brother-in-law of Olof MASTROM, who married here and went back to Sweden, has returned to Kings County to remain. The compulsory military service of 3 months out of the year, required in his native country, did not suit him. He had to go over into Denmark to purchase tickets for himself and wife to return to America. STEWART RICHMOND celebrated the 50th anniversary of his birth last Sunday at his home near Armona by giving a dinner to several whose birthdays fell on the same day. Seth SMITH, of Visalia, who is just the same age, less a few hours, as Mr. R., was there; also E.J. GIBSON, of Lemoore, aged 47, and Ralph HITCHCOCK. The latter is a bachelor and so we will not publish his age. A good time was had feasting and discussing reminiscences of early days. PHILIP McRAE left last Tuesday for Toronto, Canada, where he will spend 5 or 6 weeks on business and pleasure. He took samples of fruit back with him to show his friends and relatives what California dried fruit is like. ------------------------------------------------------- GRANGEVILLE -- -Miss SCHULTZ, who came from the East to spend the winter here on account of lung trouble, returned home last Thursday, it is to be regretted very little better for the change. Her friends think that consumption has too severe a hold on her for any place to benefit her. -Scott SAMPSON, who has gone to the hot springs to try and get relief from rheumatism, writes that he is feeling some better. -Mrs. RUSSEM is the guest of her son-in-law, J.N. HOYT, this week. ARMONA -- -Beach HAYTER is expected home in a few days with his bride. May peace and happiness attend them along life's journey is the wish of the writer and his many friends. -Oliver SELLERS, of San Luis Obispo county, on his way to Fresno, stayed over night with Nes. HANSEN, and on his return, stayed 2 nights and a day as a guest of the DICKINSON families, being an old acquaintance of theirs. -Mrs. Chas. SULLIVAN is yet quite sick. LEMOORE LOCALS -- [Lemoore 'Leader' of April 18] -Mr. W.A. FAIR, who has resided near Lemoore for the past 3 years, accompanied Mr. STERLING and family on their trip to Washington State on Tuesday of this week. Should he be favorably impressed with the new field upon his arrival, he will likely make his home in that State. -A very pleasant and successful surprise party was tendered Will SUTHERLAND by his young friends at the residence of his brother, Mr. J.C. SUTHERLAND, on Friday evening, the 10th inst. The evening was spent in games and singing. At 12 o'clock refreshments were served, after which the young people departed for home, declaring they had spent an enjoyable evening. -Mr. WEDDLE, who some 6 weeks ago had the misfortune to have his left hand punctured by the horn of a cat fish while out fishing, was in town on Monday of this week. Blood-poisoning set in within a day or 2 after the mishap, and it was thought for a time that amputation would be necessary. The hand has caused him no end of pain and trouble during the past 6 weeks, though at the present time the affected member is improving and amputation will probably be avoided. Though able to get out and around he is compelled to carry his arm in a sling with the hand resting on a board. As this is the season when a great many pleasure seekers hie themselves to the streams hereabouts to hook the finny tribe, they should be careful how they handle the cat fish lest they meet with an accident similar to that experienced by Mr. WEDDLE. -Mr. Geo. STERLING and family, who have resided for some 20 years in this vicinity, left on Tuesday of this week for Washington State, where they will permanently reside, Mr. STERLING having traded his home place 2 1/2 miles north of town to Mr. BAY of Hanford for property in that State. Mr. STERLING and family will make the trip to Washington by private conveyance, and expect it will take them some 5 or 6 weeks to make the trip. It is expected that a son of Mr. BAYs will take up his residence on the home place formerly occupied by Mr. STERLING and family. -On Monday evening of this week a party of choppers consisting of J.G. MARTIN, W.P. WEBSTER, Theodore PARK, P. CARRASCO, L. BROWNSTONE and Charles KELLER left Lemoore by private conveyance to attend the meeting of Willow Camp, Woodmen of the World, at Hanford. They report that they were well received and royally entertained by that Camp. After the meeting they were banqueted by their Hanford brethren. -Mr. G.E. SHORE has just returned from a trip to Kettleman plains and Sunflower valley. He was accompanied on the trip by his daughter, Mrs. A.B. MERRILL, who has a homestead in Sunflower valley. While there they visited C.S. MERRILL and family. DALLAS ITEMS -- -Frank McCORD has recovered sufficiently to be out about the yard on crutches, as his many friends will be glad to hear. -Henry MOFFIT has 3 of his nephews from Visalia, named MOFFIT, visiting him, and croquet games and fishing parties are in order for the week.
