An interest event of this week is the marriage of Miss Mary Merkley to Isabrand Sanders both of this city. The happy couple made a very cleverly arranged get away about midnight Sunday. Leaving Vernal in Mr. Sander's car, they journeyed on through the clear moonlight night towards Salt Lake City. Wednesday they were married in the Salt Lake temple and after a short honeymoon in Utah points they will return to Vernal to live in their newly finished home on Academy avenue. Miss Merkley is the talented daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Nelson Merkley of this city, while Mr. Sanders is the well known manager of the Golden Rule store. Both are popular people in Vernal and have the best wishes of the community.
*Punctuation adjusted wherein I saw fit. Newspaper states his name as "Sanders" but it is actually without the last "S", "Sander".
