Schultze, Martha (Marriage - 3 Apr 1918)

The marriage of two prominent young people was solemnized Wednesday afternoon, April 3, 1918, at the home of the bride. The contracting parties were Wm. H. Krause Jr. and Martha Schultze. The ceremony was performed by the pastor, Rev. H. H. Laabs, and was witnessed by nearly seventy-five relatives and friends. The bride looked lovely in white silk crepe and carried a shower bouquet of bridal roses.

The bride was attended by Elsa Krause and Eleanore Beller, who carried an arm bouquet of carnations. The best men were John Barth and Max Schultze.

The color scheme appropriate for the event was tastefully carried out in yellow and white narcissi, sweet pears and crepe paper being use.

After the ceremony and congratulations the company was served to a sumptuous wedding dinner. Mr. and Mrs. Krause are young people well and favorably known. After a short wedding trip to the Twin Cities they will make their home at the Fairview Stock farm south of the village (Thorp, Clark County, Wis.)
