GEORGE SCOTT AND ADA MEYENFELDT QUIETLY MARRIED

In Rapid City, Tuesday, December 1, 1914, at the Presbyterian manse, George Harrison Scott and Miss Ada Isabel Meyenfeldt, both of Rapid City.

Just why this well-known young couple should keep this important step a secret for several days can only be explained by the almost universal desire in the young for romantic expression. In this case the two principals calmly went over to the minister's and were made one. Then the "one" separated and went about their regular, daily duties. Mr. Scott is bookkeeper in the Security Savings Bank, and as the cashier was to be married the next day and go on a wedding trip, perhaps Mr. Scott thought there wouldn't be much chance for him so he wouldn't say anything about his affairs. At any rate he didn't.

Mr. Scott is a young man of exemplary habits, a former employee of the Journal, clerk in the land office, at present bookkeeper in the Security bank, and at all times one of the best trap orchestra drummers in the country. The way he can play the snare drum, the bells, bass drum, cymbals, and whatever else he has in that bunch of stuff he has about him is, well it is worth watching, anyway.

The bride is a daughter of Fred Meyenfeldt. She came here from Chicago about eight years ago, and has made many friends during her stay. She has been of much service in musical circles, always doing willingly what was desired of her. At present she is cashier in the Tom Sweeney Hardware store. Mr. and Mrs. Scott are rooming in the W.H. Stewart house, where they will remain until they made arrangements to go to housekeeping.
