28 AUG 1914 -
Fetzer-Ruff
* We knew it
was going to happen but we didn't know just when and didn't stop to think
that when Sam left here last Saturday he would come back with a Mrs. Ruff.
But, it's all right Sam, the way you put it over us, but you might have
told the editor for one, that.
On Monday, August 24, 1914, at Napoleon, would occur the
marriage of Miss Matilda Fetzer of Venturia, to Sam W. Ruff of Gackle, the
ceremony to take place in the chambers of Judge Geo. A. Bryant, who spoke
the words that made them man and wife, and that's just what happened.
Our friend Sam, hiked out of here Saturday, accompanied by Wm.
W. Ruff his brother, and they struck for Venturia where the groom went to
get his bride. They returned to Napoleon Monday where the event took place
at one o'clock that afternoon in the presence of only the bride's father
and Wm. W. Ruff, a brother.
While speeding to the court house from the Village of
Napoleon, a spring chicken got in the way of the auto and as a result paid
for its folley with its life, Sam evidently insisted that nothing should
stand in his way at that important moment.
The bride is a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Fetzer of
Venturia. She is a young lady well thought of by her many friends who know
her and a charming young lady.
The groom is a member of the firm of Ruff Bros. Company of
this place and the youngest son of Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Ruff, Sr., of Gackle.
Sam is a rustler and is "making good" in the machine and hardware
business at Gackle. He came to Gackle about a year ago from Medina and has
made a host of friends.
The newly married couple will make their home at Gackle and
The Republican joins with the many friends of the bride and groom in
wishing them a happy and prosperous married life.

teacher at Jud and made many friends not only there by in this city also

years and is now assistant cashier at the State Bank of Jud. The Mail, with
