Widow of Three Weeks Re-Married at Clerk’s Office.

A marriage license was issued at the court house this Monday morning to John Richard Lucas, of Bedford, Indiana, and Emma Dili Ward, of this city. Rev. W. G. Winn, of the Christian church, was called to the court house and their marriage took place at 11:30 at the county clerk’s office in the presence of County Clerk Judson H. Perkins and his deputy, Miss Eva Moore. It was the second marriage for each. The bride is the widow of Wallace Ward, whose death occurred about three weeks ago. She just returned Saturday from Brookston, where her late husband was buried. She is the mother of three children. Mr. Lucas lives at Bedford, Indiana, where he is a section foreman and a railroader at that place. His first marriage was dissolved by divorce last February. Mr. and Mrs. Lucas will probably go to Bedford shortly, which place will be their future home.
