    A number of neighbors and friends gave Mr. and Mrs. Virgil Yeager a belling Thursday evening. After a chase through fields and woods they were captured and taken to the Cox store, five miles east of Warsaw. Ice cream, candy and pop were served. A fine time was enjoyed, all wishing Mr. and Mrs. Yeager many happy years of married life. Mrs. Yeager was formerly Mrs. Nellie Mauzy and was married to Mr. Yeager a week ago at Pierceton.
