Bowen. As there seemed to be no question but that he froze to death while drunk, it was deemed unnecessary to hold an inquest. A religious service was given by Rev. F. R. Harding. The body was then taken in charge by Henry Flagg, overseer of the county farm and buried in the cemetery at the county farm. The New Lisbon Argus, dated 11 Mar 1914

Surnames: Dix, Ball, Macomber, Barlow Classification: Marriage Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/wEC.2ACE/1273 Message Board Post: Hymenial - At Elroy, Thursday, Sept. 15th, 1887, Mr. Judson M. Dix and Miss Gertrude E. Ball, both of Elroy. The nupitals took place at the home of the bride's father, Mr. Albert Ball, at 8 o'clock p.m., in the presence of a goodly number of guests. The bride was attended by her sister, Mrs. Horace Macomber, Miss Nettie Dix, sister of the groom, Miss Jennie Macomber, and Miss May Barlow, cousin of the bride, all of whom were most becomingly attired in white. The bride looked her loveliest, as all brides do. She appeared in a suit of one of the latest shades of brown, the silken folds of which clung to her person in graceful folds and drapings and her personal appearance was a fit study for the leading modiste to follow. As ornaments she selected the favority, Tea rose buds, cut flowers, in the delicate pink tint intermingled with those of the bride's color, white. The groom wore a suit of the conventional black, and as the wedding group arranged themselves under the floral canopy, designed for the occasion, they filled the soul with a spectacle of beauty and sense of unassumed! simplicity. The bride is a lady who is capable of commanding the entire respect of all who know her, and for the past two or three years she has held a position of trust in the schools of that place. Her father is the postmaster there and the whole family are of the most highly respected and influential. The groom, a gentleman of long acquaintance, engaged in the drug business, has a circle of friends that feel in him the proper confidence to insure him their support from a business standpoint, and his career, thus far, has been a confirmation of their good judgement. After the marriage vow was spoken and congratulations extended the bridal party were bidden to partake of a sumptous wedding supper. As the hour of midnight drew near Mr. and Mrs. Dix made arrangements preparatory to their departure for Minneapolis, the home of the groom's sister and from thence to Chicago. They expected to confine the time absent within the limit of two weeks, afterwhich time they will return to Elroy and take upon themselves the responsibilities attending house-keeping. The wedding gifts received from the friends and relatives, combined both beauty and convenience and each and every souvenir received under such auspices will be by them doubly appreciated. The good wish of future prosperity is theirs, coming from many friends, and supplemented with an associate wish of longevity to the contracting parties. The New Lisbon friends join in their congratulations. (not sure of the exact Juneau Co. newspaper this came from or the date)

I believe I've found the area in Vermont (Plainfield, Washington Co) but haven't yet determined the family. I'm working on it. The surname is actually Batchelder and they appear to be descendants of Stephen Bachiler.
