    Married:
    Pretty Wedding at Rugby
    At the home of Mr. and Mrs. Fred F. Rowatt in Rugby on last Wednesday afternoon occurred the marriage of a prominent young couple of Rolette, Miss Anna Rowatt, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. William Rowatt, and L. A. Benson, the well known state veterinarian.

    The wedding ceremony took place under an arch twined with smilax and Rev. H. Ketcham was the officiating clergyman. The strains of Mendelssonhn's wedding march layed by Mrs. Martin Benson announced the coming of the bridal party, the bride, attired in a dainty and simple princess gown of white, leaning on the arm of her father, her bridesmaid, Miss Eva Rowatt of Winnipeg also gowned in white and carrying pink carnations, the groom and his best man, A. Benson. After the nutial words had been spoken congratulations were extended and this was followed by the service of the wedding dinner.

    In the evening Dr. and Mrs. Benson left on their honeymoon, expecting to take quite an extended trip through Minnesota, Iowa and Manitoba. The bride's traveling suit was of electric blue worn with large black hat.
