holy matrimony to Alta May Luther.

Saviour” and “Jesus Saviour Pilot Me: with Mrs. T. S. Cleaver accompanying 
them at the piano.  Rev. Thomas S. Cleaver of the Congregational church will 
officiate.  Interment is to be made at Mt. Rest cemetery.

Eliza Ann Maxwell; an aunt, Mrs. Janie Powell; two uncles, George Kelch of 
Bengal and Winfield Wager of California; two nephews and a niece, and many

church, neighborhood and city of St. Johns. Mr. Eldridge was a great lover
