Pennsylvania Girl Wed Colorado Boy Here Saturday.

A marriage took place at the M. E. parsonage Saturday afternoon, the principals being Miss Almeda Gilmore, of Franklin, Pa., and Mr. Omar Kaessner, of Colorado Springs, Colo. The groom is a nephew of Mrs. J. J. Eigelsbach and formerly in Rensselaer. He came here some two weeks ago and after a short visit 'here went to Pennsylvania. There was an air of mystery about his visit to the east and his Rensselaer relatives did not learn the purpose of his trip there until he arrived here Saturday with Miss Gilmore, and then it was found shat his trip half way across the continent was- for the purpose of securing a bride. There were girls in Colorado and Girls in Indiana, but nothing looked nearly so good to him as the Pennsylvania girl and he brought her to Rensselaer to have the marriage performed. They were accompanied to the parsonage by Mr. and Mrs. John Eigelsbach and Mrs. Frank G. Kresler, and the marriage performed by Rev. C. L. Harper. They expect to start Tuesday morning for Colorado Springs, and to make that city their permanent home. The Republican Joins other friends in wishing them a happy married life.
