Did your grandmother or another family member save newspaper clippings? If so, do you have any that are incomplete or missing details?
Today’s discovery comes from one of those partial clippings. Thanks to the incredible efforts to digitize historic newspapers, I was able to track down the full article from the fragment I had.
Beine—Mentzer.
At the Christian church parsonage Sunday, April 8, 1923, Emile Beine and Miss Cecil M. Mentzer, both of Yates Center, Rev. Loyd L. Roach, officiating. These fine young people have the best wishes of all their friends. They will make their home on Mr. Hogueland’s farm northwest of Yates Center.
The groom is the son of Mr. and Mrs. August Beine, of Reynolds, N.D., formerly of this place, and is a highly respected young man. The bride is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
Fred Mentzer, of North township, and for several years a successful teacher in the schools of Woodson county. The best wishes of their friends for a long and happy life go with them to their new home seven miles northwest of Yates Center.
