TV M. C. Harrington Married. M. C. Harrington and Mrs. M. II. Tobin were united in marriage at St. Patrick's church at 8:30 Sunday evening by Rev. Kennedy in the presence of members of the two families. The couple left on the midnight train for a tour in the east. Mr. Harrington will be absent about thirty days, while Mrs. H. will extend her visit beyond that tinlc. This ceremony was not entirely unexpected by our people, as it is a consummation fitting and proper. The two have been associated in business for several years the families have lived under the roof, and the contracting parties have been congenial to each other, When Mr. Tobin died a number of years ago his interest in the firm of Harrington it Tobin was con tinued by his wife, and the varied business of the firm represents during the year a greater volume than perhaps any other firm in western Nebraska. It is especially fittting that the business partner ship which has proven bo succc&ful should be lollowcd by a matri monial partnership. Mr. and Mrs. Harrington arc peo ple of prominence in social, busi ness and church circles, ami by reason of their many good qualities are held in very high esteem; they arc known by all and respected by all. We are glad to record this marl tal union and extend our heartiest congratulations and beat wishes to Mr. and Mrs. Harriugton. Saath of Mrs. E. H. Smith, Mrs. B. H.
