ed by one of the O’Neill ministers.
Judge Malone says that he has on
hand an extra large supply of mar
riage licenses and is ready to accomo
date any of the love sick swain of
other counties who are too bashful to
apply for a permit to wed from the
officials of their own counties.
That little cupld is no respector of
age was exemplified ac the county
court room last Tuesday afternoon
when Judge Malone performed the
ceremony that united James C. Buch
anan of Ogallah, Kansas, to Mrs.
Emily T. Clark of Dustin, Nebraska.
The groom is 71 years of age and a

bride, who recently proved up on a
quarter section of Holt county land,
confessed to having seen 63 summers
and a like number of winters. After
the genial Judge bad Ipronounced the
words that made them one the happy
couple started down the street, hand
in hand as happy and apparently as
care free as any bride and groom that
ever came from the court room.

Obituary.
Edward Gallagher, who died In
Sioux City, Iowa last Thursday morn
ing was buried in the Catholic ceme
taryi n this city last Saturday morn
ing, beside the remains of his wife,
who proceeded him to the great be
yond a year ago last April.
Mr. Gallegher was born in the coun
ty Donegal, Ireland, in August, 1829,
and would have been 82 years of age
next August. Shortly after reaching
his majority he came to American
and located in Pennsylvania where he
was married and resided until his re
moval to this county in the spring of
1876 and located upon a farm north
west of this city which he owned at
the time of his death and upon which
bs resided until this spring. He bad
always enjoyed splendid health until
about six months ago and ten uayt
before his death was taken to Sioux
City for medical treatment but the
best of medical skill could avail noth
ing and he peacefully passed away ten
days after his arrival in the hospital
there.
Deceased was one of the sturdy
pioneers of the early days of this ,
county who endured all the privations
and hardships of the pioneers when
this country was little better than a
wilderness with the nearest railroad
at Yankton, S. D, a hundred miles
away. He was a man of a genial,
jovial disposition with a hearty hand
olasp and a word of good cheer for
every one; with that rugged lnate
honesty that endeared the early set
tlers of this vicinity to those of the
present generation.
He leaves live children to mourn the
departure of a kind and loving father.
They are.Daniel, of Bisbee, Arizona;
Mrs. James Crowley of this city; An
drew of Laurel, Neb.; Mrs. Mary E.
Bates, of Denver, Colorado; and Mrs.
Sarah Chausse, of Terry, Mont. An
drew and Mrs, Crowley were present
at the funeral, which. was held Sat
urday morning. Mrs. Bates reached
the city on Saturday evening too late
to attend the funeral.
Alumnae Banquet.
The fourth annual alumnae day of
St. Mary’* Academy opened on June
11th with Benediction of the Blessed
Sacrament in the convent chapel at
five P. M. by very Rev. M. P. Cassidy.
After Benediction the Alumnae, class
of 1911 and guests assembled in the re
ception hall where, immediately fol
lowing the reception, thelguests were
Invited Into the banquet room where
a delightful menu was served. The
rooms were attractively decorated
with flowers plants and the Academy
colors. Miss Margaret Donohoe ’08
was charming and amusing as toast
mistress. The toasts of the occasion
were responded to by the following:
“Our Future,” Miss Mabel McNlchols,
“Our Alma Mater,” Miss Julia Blg
lin, “Welcome to class of 1911,” Miss
Mary Coyle, "Response,” Miss Ger
trude Hirsh,” “Our Destenies.” Miss
Genevieve Mullen.
A beautiful original song of S. M. A.
was sung by the memben of the al
umnae and both music and song was
enjoyed for some time. After the
toasts Mr. J. A. Donohoe was called
upon to talk of his recent trip abroad
He touched upon Lourdes apropas of
the recent play of the class of ’ll after
Which he spoke of the audience with
the Holy Father, that story “so old
yet ever new” with it varying inter- .
esting circumstances.
Most notable among the features of
the reunion was the spirit of good
cheer which was abroad among the
girls of former years, and the true love
and loyalty breathed forth from every
toast on paper read. The great inter
est manifested bids fair fora large
reunion in 1912 when the spaoious new
rooms of the new annex will be oc
cupied. _
