MARRIAGE A SURPRISE.
Miss Sara Wertman Becomes the Bride of C. L. Campbell.
Though they were married on March 31st by Rev. J. D. Clemmons, C. L. Campbell and Miss Sara E. Wertman kept their marriage a secret from their friends until yesterday. They didn't want to announce it until Sara's school was closed.
The Reed school of Cranberry township closed Thursday, and with that event came the announcement that she was a bride of nearly four weeks. She was graduated from the four-year course in the Rocky Grove High School, and has been teaching since, most of which time has been spent in Cranberry township.
Mr. Campbell was for years a telegraph operator for the Pennsylvania railroad. Recently he has been employed as barber, of which trade he is also a master.
Congratulations are being extended now to Mr. and Mrs. Campbell from their many friends in Rocky Grove and Galloway, and with them goes the desire that the young couple may reside in the Grove.
