After finishing his meal the dark haired tramp lav back and began reading a tattered Terre Haute Star bv the light of the fire. He read listlessly for a while then suddenly began scanning the words intently. This is what he read: NEWS CONCERNING CLASS OF 1929 OF CASEY H. S. A marriage ceremony was performed yesterday at Vevay Park with Reverend I .eland Stiff officiating. The happy bridegroom was Victor Edwards, while his blushing and radiantly beautiful bride was no other than the former society belle. Ruby Myers. Among those present were Mary Abraham, first woman governor of Arkansas, and the former Mary Collins, now the wife of the big butter and egg man, Paul Foraker. Willard Bowles is now studying for the priesthood at St. Mary’s-of-the-Woods, Terre Haute, Indiana.

Among those present were Katherine Stiff, Marie Letner, Genevieve Carr, formerly Genevieve Perkins, now wife of Robert Carr, well known seascape artist, and Dorothy Timmons, a movie star. Olaf Logue, a professional football player, was severely injured the other night. An old friend, Reverend George Myers came along, and being intoxicated and observing Logue’s flaming head, took him for a lamp post and embraced him. Logue dropped to the pavement mortally wounded in the solar plexus, the lachrymal glands and the occipital bone. He was removed to a hospital where it is hoped he will not recover.
