And Jones Got His 

Some time ago when well known residents of Ebensburg were married, 
Attorney Walter Jones was first and foremost among those who arranged 
celebration on their honor upon their return.  Mr. Jones took great 
pleasure in preparing for the Benedicts, not knowing then that he was to 
marry soon himself. A week or so ago Walter Jones married Miss Metz of 
Philadelphia.  He returned home with his bride Thursday night.  A number 
of friends captured the blushing, protesting, near-fighting bridegroom and 
hauled him around town on a trunk wagon.  They then trundled him about the 
city on a sandsled.  Afterwards they dressed him in a silk hat and long 
coat - with other clothes - and chased him up and down the streets.  About 
2 o'clock Friday morning they restored him to Mrs. Jones.  Thus it was 
that Jones, Walter Jones, got his.
