Aunt Mary Clare sent along a news clipping: click here to read the full text

The wedding was on January 19, 1920 (the date is not in the paper). There is a sentence about Pop's service overseas in World War I mentioning how long he was overseas. There is a blur in the paper and I cannot read the number of months. From letters Pop sent to Mom, I think he sailed for Europe in mid April 1918. He was still in France in February 1919 but expected to be heading home soon. So he probably was overseas about 11 months. I've typed the article with spelling and grammar just like it was in the paper!
