Popular Couple Wedded April 6, 1910

About one o’clock Wednesday afternoon a quiet wedding occurred at the Ethridge home on the west bluff, where Rev. A. Ethridge performed the ceremony that united in marriage Mr. G. Edward TenEyck and Miss E. Bernice Gallaher, the latter carrying a bunch of bridal roses during the ceremony and the couple being attended by Miss Pearl TenEyck, sister of the groom, and Mr. Arthur Simmons.

The wedding ceremony over, the happy couple and attendants went by auto to the Mrs. D. E. Hogue home, where congratulations were received and light refreshments served. Soon afterward, the wedding party was taken by auto to Ottawa, where the bride and groom took a fast train to Chicago where they will spend a few days.

The young couple are both well known and liked in Marseilles, and are quite talented musicians. Mrs. TenEyck is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Gallaher and was born and raised in Marseilles. Mr. TenEyck is a machinist in the employ of the M. M. C. He is a most popular member of the Marseilles Military Band and is not likely to forget this organization for some time on account of the manner in which they with other friends started his wedding trip. The wedding party had no more than got underway, when near the foot of the hill the band boys quickly ran across the road, stretching a rope and as the auto came to a stop, hurriedly changed drivers. The band then formed in order ahead of the auto and party with its new driver, S. B. Ehersol, the former driver being roped around and carefully guarded by two young men bringing up the rear.

The procession with such banners a “Ed and Bernice,” “Just Married,” “Don’t Tell Anyone,” etc., then marched down Main Street, a sensation for all along the line, to the interurban station and back, when the original auto driver, Mr. Hinch, was again allowed to take charge of the machine, and after a few hurried congratulations from friends, the party was soon speeding away.

Mr. and Mrs. Ten Eyck will be observing their 65th Anniversary April 6th with their children and grandchildren at their home in Walton.
