They were married here on June 3rd, 1883, by the late Rev. Chr. F.

      Their family consists of 5 sons and two daughters, Louis, of Norwalk, Ohio, Victor, Fred, Frank, Harold, Adele and Helen, all of Kitchener. Besides these other guests present were: Mrs. Merner's sister and brother, Mrs. McNally, of Brantford, and Mr. Wilfrid Brodrecht, of Detroit.
