Sioux City Journal, 19th : A simple,
informal wedding which will take
place at 3 o'clook this afternoon at the
home of William Day, Newton avenue,
Moruiogside, will mark the conclusion
of a pretty college courtship under es
pecially romautio oircuuistanoes. John
It Day, a graduate) of Morhing Side
college with the class cf 1909. will be
united to Miss Margaret Bridenbaugh,
who is an alumnus of Warrioers Busi
ness college, class of 1907. The cere
mony will be performed at the bedside
of the groom, who for several months
has been seriously ill, and is but slow
ly recovering. Cards cad been sent
out some time ago announcing a form
al weddicg at Miss Bridenbaugt i
home on Palmer avenue. It was dec!
ded to follow out these first plans as
far as possible, although the illness of
Mr Day makes it necessary that the
event take place at bis homo. It is
likely that a considerable element of
romanoe entered Into this decision on
part of Miss Bridenbaugh to take upon
herself the wifely duties while the
groom lingers on the way to a recovery
to health. Much interest is being
shown upon the culmination of this
college courtship by mutual friends of
the young people. Because of tbe
sickness ot Mr Day only the closest rel
atives will be present at the wedding.
Miss Bridenbangh will be given away
by ber father, J II Bridenbaugh . Har
lan Bridenbaugh, a member of the sen
lor class at Alornlngside, will act as
best man. Rev W T Macdouald, of
Grace Methodist Episcopal church,
will unite tbe couple. Air Day. since
his graduation, has served as pastor of
the Methodist charge at Peiro, Iowa.
He has made himself popular in bis
work, although handicapped a consid
erable portion of tbe time by a heart
affection of some seriousness. While a
student at worningside, Mr Day was
prominent in scholarly attainment,
taking a leading part in literary and
society affairs. Miss Bridenbaugh, af
ter graduating from Warnner s college,
has been employed as a bookkeeper by
the Crane company, in Sioux City. It
is the plan of the young couple to take
op their residence at Peiro as soon as
Mr Day's health will permit the mov
ing. This will probably be within a
lew weeks, as a permanent recovery is
looked for by that time.
