Helms, Flora E. (4 DEC 1893)

Married, at the residence of the bride’s parents, at Kendall, Wis., on Monday, Dec. 4th, 1893, Clarence M. Taylor of this city (Colby, Clark Co., Wis.), and Miss For a E. Hems of Kendall, the bride’s father, V. H. Helms, officiating.

The groom will be recognized by our readers as one of the most estimable young men of this city, here, where he has grown to manhood and where he is best known, he counts his friends by the score, and all of them will unite with us in wishing him and his fair bride, who comes among us a stranger, long years of happiness and an abundance of the good things of this life.

The happy couple arrived at their home here, Tuesday evening, and have since been receiving the hearty congratulations of many friends.

A communication received by Rev. V. H. Helms says: "Twenty-eight of the bride’s personal friends were present. A goodly number accompanying the happy pair to the depot, wishing them much joy and God bless you in your future home. The presence of the groom’s mother, who had come with her son to witness his marriage, lent a cheerful air to the nuptial scene."
