MARRIED

JONES-HUNKINS In Spirit Lake, on the 11th instant, by Rev. J. D. Peirce, Mr. Oren Jones and Miss Clara Hunkins.

The groom has spent most of his life among our people, and has fairly achieved success and esteem of all who know him well. The bride has been known here but little more than a year, but her native modesty, kindly disposition and other gifts appreciated in woman have won for her a good opinion and friendship of many.
