Tyrone,
was a wedding. Thursday afternoon Rev.
F. L. Bergstresser, the
pastor
was busily employed directing the concreting of the church
basement
when a Port Matilda couple, William F. Kinney and Miss Annie
Pearl
Bigelow invited him to leave his task and perform a marriage
ceremony
for them. Rev. Mr. Bergstresser asked
them to accompany him
to
the parsonage for the affair, but the pair conceived the idea that
they
would like to be married in the new church and the pastor readily
acquiesced,
for he didn't want to get too far away from his concrete.
So,
calling upon a couple of workmen as witnesses, Rev. Mr.
Bergstresser
officiated in the first wedding ceremony to take place in
the
new edifice. The bride and groom were
pleased at the novelty of it
all. Speaking concretely they had the sand for the
occasion, and their
union
was well cemented. Mr. and Mrs. Kinney
took a brief honeymoon
trip
westward. They will reside at Port
Matilda.
