ELLA HUMKE/EDWIN SCHWARZE MARRIAGE

A happy wedding ceremony Wednesday afternoon, Dec. 7th, 1904, was solemnized by Rev. J. Schmalz, by which Edwin Schwarze, son of Mr. and Mrs. John Schwarze, and Miss Ella, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Humke, were made husband and wife until death shall make them twain.

The wedding took place at the home of the bride's parents and was witnessed by the immediate relatives and a few intimate friends of the contracting parties. The bride was attended by Miss Clara Schwarze, sister of the groom. Adolph Schwarze, cousin of the groom, was best man.

Following the marriage ceremony the bridal party and guest partook of a bounteous wedding feast to which all did sufficient honors. The bride and groom were the recipients of endless amount of presents, which is a suggestion of the kindly regards with which the worthy pair are held.

Mr. and Mrs. Schwarze went to housekeeping at once at the groom's newly furnished home opposite Otto Decker's place, near Beyer's hall. They take with them the best wishes of a host of friends who have known them all their lives.
