The groom, a son of Mr. and Mrs. Jake Verhalen, Caledonia, is well known in this vicinity, having lived near Spokeville for many tears.

Mrs. Milton Weber and Elden Verhalen, Milwaukee, sister and brother of the groom, were the couple’s only attendants.

Mrs. Weber was attired in a figured crepe dress with black accessories. Her corsage was similar to that of the bride.

Both the groom and his attendant wore dark brown suits with boutonnieres of tea roses.

Immediately after the ceremony a luncheon was served at the home of the bride’s uncle and aunt, Mr. and Mrs. Lyle Clouse, 1390 W. Fond du Lac St. Milwaukee.
