Anderson-Rowe Nuptials

A wedding which escaped the notice of the Enterprize reporter took place at Lake Park , Iowa , on Tuesday, August 10th, at the home of the bride's aunt, when Miss Sarah Rowe, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John Rowe, of this place, was united in the holy bonds of wedlock to Mr. Orvie Anderson, of Elk township. The wedding was attended by only a few of the immediate relatives of the contracting parties.

The bride is well and favorably known here, having resided here for many years. She is well educated and has been a successful teacher for several terms. Last year she taught a school in Elk township and it was there she met the man who last week led her to the altar. The groom is prosperous young farmer and is highly spoken of by those who know him. He manages a farm in Elk township, where the happy couple have already gone to housekeeping. Rushmore friends join the Enterprise in extending congratulations and wishing Mr. and Mrs. Anderson the best of everything this life affords. --Rushmore Enterprize.
