On Tuesday last, the 26th, inst., a marriage ceremony was performed at Bagley, that united in wedlock Miss Hensena Larson [sic], of that place, to Fred A. Carver, of this vicinity. They arrived here Wednesday afternoon and will make their home on Mr. Carver's farm west of here.
This occur
rance [sic] accounts for the new and comfortable home that the groom has had built this summer. Mr. Carver is well and favorably known in Fosston and all will join in wishing the newly married couple unalloyed happiness.
The Thirteen Towns, Eighty Years Ago, November 29, 1901--

Orins P. son, age 4/12 [Orison, 4 months old]
Ore Phere, nephew, age 22, born in Maine, both parents born in Maine [From later data, this is probably the youngest son of John E. McPherson (aka Pherson in some Maine records), and Orel McPherson or Pherson - misspelled as Ore Phere - would be Fred's half-brother's son, thus related to Fred, and Fred's nephew. John was Margaret's son by her first marriage, and Orel was her grandson.]
[Simon C. Rice was the enumerator of the 1910 US census for this household, and he is the one to be credited for abominable spelling!]
