Stockwell, Ethel (5 Feb 1919)

On Wednesday afternoon, Feb. 5th, the marriage of Miss Ethel Stockwell and William Holway was solemnized at Granton. The ceremony was performed by Judge O’Neill at the home of the bride’s sister, Mrs. F.J. Baer. Only close relatives of the young couple were in attendance. The bride wore a travelling suit. Mrs. Baer served a fine dinner at the close of the ceremony and Mr. and Mrs. Holway left on the afternoon train for a brief wedding trip before taking up their residence at Madison.

The groom is a son of Adjt. Gen. and Mrs. Holway and having lived in Merrillan for a number of years has been closely associated with the young people of this city. He is a young man of more than ordinary ability and at present holds a very responsible position in Madison. His bride is one of Neillsville’s most pleasing young ladies. She was born and raised in this city, being a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. C.S. Stockwell. She graduated from the Neillsville school and for several years has been employed as a stenographer for Schuster & Campman. She has always been prominent in social affairs in the city and is possessed of a character and winsome manner which cannot but reflect happily in the home over which she will preside.

General and Mrs. Holway of Madison and Mrs. E.G. Wanner of Bismarck, N.D., were at Granton for the wedding.
