NUPTIALS SOLEMNIZED
YESTERDAY AFTERNOON
——— |
Miss May Catherine Manuel, of Boston, and
John Joseph Ahern of 74 Main St., this city, were married yesterday afternoon at three o'clock at St. Charles
parochial residence, Rev. Henry A. Walsh officiating.
A peculiar coincidence was that Mr. Ahern and two
sisters [Margaret and Mary], married within two years, were married on Monday.
Accompanying the couple yesterday were Mr. Fred Gould, of Malden, as best man. Miss Josephine Manuel, of Newton, was bridesmaid.
The bride was dressed in a gown of white silk, trimmed with Irish point lace. The
bridesmaid wore cream nuns veiling, with Irish point lace trimmings.
Following the ceremony a reception was held at the home of the groom's mother,
Mrs. Mary Ahern, she with Miss Catherine Ahern, Mrs. Garnet Gamester, assisting them in receiving.
The couple left yesterday on a wedding trip to Washington. The groom is
considered one of the cleverest boxers in the city, and has on many occasions given exhibitions of bag
punching at public entertainments. The couple will reside at 5 Border St.

A TAX-PAYER
FAVORS McGRATH
——— |
To the Editor Daily TIMES:
Dear Sir,—I was very much pleased to learn through your paper that the friends of James F. McGrath had induced him to come forward for Mayorality honors. To my mind he is just the stamp of a man who would run this city in a business shape and spend the city money to the best advantage. His record since he came to this city is a most successful one. He evidently understands the purchasing power of money, and would demand full value for every dollar expended in any branch of the city government. I think it is up to the taxpayers of Woburn to come forward and insist on Mr. McGrath accepting the nomination from the Democratic party, and I have not the slightest doubt but he would be indorsed [sic] by the Republicans, as every taxpayer in Woburn is disgusted at the way that money is wasted at City Hall.
Yours, |
| A HEAVY TAXPAYER. |

| George S. Low, the sub-master at the high school, conducted a class of pupils to one of the voting booths this morning and as part of the study on civil government showed how voting is done. The practical illustration was a good idea. |
