MARRIED: CONNELL-JONES
Thursday, January 31st, at the Brethren parsonage was the scene of a quiet wedding. As the hour of one o'clock came, Mr. Harvey Jones, of Madison Township, and Miss Ina Connell, of Warren Township, presented themselves at the Hymeneal altar and took upon them the sacred obligations of the married life. The parents of the groom were present to witness the ceremony. Mr. Jones is one of Madison Township's ambitious and successful young farmers, and is well known to the people of Brooklyn and vicinity. Miss Connell is one of Warren Township's successful school teachers and is also widely and favorably known. They left immediately for Des Moines, on a short honeymoon, to return Friday evening. They will be found at home to their many friends in the near future on a farm in Madison township two miles north of the Madison Christian church. We wish for them a most happy and successful voyage through life
