    • Jo Peck writes that "Clara and Harry Bossert were married at the home of the bride's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Christian BRYHAN, in South Lancaster at high noon, and marched down the stairs to the playing of the march by the twin sister of the groom. Clara wore "white georgette, crepe trimmings of white messaline and veil and carried a huge bouquet of cream rosebuds. The worthy young couple will go to housekeeping on the Bossert farm after returning from their honeymoon in Minnesota...the bride, though a stranger in this locality, has won many friends during her short calls here."
