Stronghurst Graphic, Dec. 21, 1922

SURPRISED THEIR FRIENDS: Mr. Orville Boyd and Miss Marguerite Wheeling were married in Galesburg last Thursday evening by Rev. Drew, pastor of the Galesburg Congregational Church. The couple was attended by Mr. and Mrs. C. E. Ellis of Galesburg, cousins of the groom. The bride is the daughter of Mrs. Johanna Wheeling of this city and is a highly respected and popular young lady. For the past four years she has held the position of teacher in the Allison School during which time she has endeared herself to the hearts of the pupils and gained the cooperation of the parents, which has made the school one of the best in the county. She has also taken an active part in the civic and religious affairs of the community.

The groom is the son of Mrs. Elizabeth Boyd of Biggsville and has been a resident of Stronghurst for several years. He is a young man of exemplary character and worthy of the one he has chosen for a life partner. During the World War he enlisted in the Naval Aviation and saw service both on this side and overseas. Several months ago he formed a partnership with Chas. Wheeling and they opened up the B. and W. Cafe and by strict business methods and hard work they have built up a flourishing enterprise.

Mr. and Mrs. Boyd have taken apartments in the Nuvon Hotel and we understand that Mrs. Boyd will finish out her term as teacher at the Allison School.
