MATRIMONIAL

CORNMESSER - GLUNT.

  At 5 o'clock Thursday afternoon Rev. J. H. Mathers, of Bellwood, united in 
the holy bonds of matrimony Mr. Blair W. Cornmesser, of Bellwood, and Miss 
Bertha Glunt, of Logan township.  There were present a number of the friends 
and relatives of the contracting parties, and at the conclusion of the 
ceremony all were invited to partake of an elegant dinner which had been 
prepared for them.  To this all did justice, and the manner in which the 
viands disappeared was ample proof that they were appreciated.  The bride is 
a daughter of Mr. Jonathan Glunt, one of Logan township's best citizens, and 
is a very excellent young lady, enjoying the esteem of a large circle of 
friends who will join in wishing her a life of happiness.  Mr. Cornmesser is 
a prosperous citizen of Bellwood and is highly spoken of by those who have 
the pleasure of his acquaintance.  The happy couple were the recipients of a
