Creed and Margie were married on April 8, 1891 in Marion, Virginia. So, if you add 60 years to 1891 you get 1951. The article is a clipping but on the back is a partial identification of the newspaper that suggests it might be from the Plattsmouth Journal.

REMEMBER WAR DEAD, LEGION COMMANDER ASKS
Members of the American Legion were urged to be among the first to put on memorial poppies on Poppy Day next Saturday in a message issued today by Gene Krings, Commander of the Plattsmouth Legion Post.
Reminding the veterans that the poppy is a symbol of remembrance for their fallen comrades, and provides very real aid for the disabled and needy children of veterans, Commander Krings said:
"We all remember those comrades of ours who gave their lives for America so on Poppy Day let us be among the first to put on their memorial flower. Wearing a poppy is a little thing to do but it has big meaning. It means that we honor and are grateful to those who gave their all that America might remain a free land. We who returned safely from war service most certainly owe this symbolic gesture to those who did not come back."

Dr. Marvin, of Nebraska, was arrested in this city last Sunday by Sheriff Johnson, assisted by Sheriff Grebe, of Omaha. The doctor is charged with having caused the death of a girl from Wood River, Nebraska, while attempting to produce an abortion.
The Omaha papers are quite severe on Marvin, and claim that he left there with the intention of fleeing from justice. Marvin denies and such intention, and asks that the judgement of the public be suspended until the whole of the facts are produced.
He claims that the girl had taken medicine before he was called, and that he did nothing more than assist in a result which was already inevitable. We await the result of any investigation before expressing any opinion.
THE MARVIN CASE
The Omaha papers contain the evidence before the Coroner's jury in the above case, which shows beyond doubt that Marvin produced the abortion, and that the girl, whose name was Eliza Oliver, came to her death in consequence thereof.
It also appears that a man named Sam. Boyd was interested in her case, and spoke of her to parties as his wife. The verdict of the Coroner's jury was that "the said Eliza Oliver came to her death from the effects of an abortion, and that such abortion was produced by Geo. W. Marvin"
Dr. Martin was confirmed in jail after being arrested here and his preliminary examination was fixed for today.
Marshall has those new Yale lock boxes in place now, and the rush for them is lively. If you want one in a good location you should speak quick. The office has been rearranged, with boxes on each side and a dozen extra large drawers added with Yale locks, besides the patent boxes.
Cap. is bound to keep the Plattsmouth P.O. up to the times. -- The first time we ever saw Marshall's beaming countenance it was behind a couple dozen of rude boxes in the little room now occupied by Dr. G.H. Black, where he dispensed the honors of the Plattsmouth P.O. with the same pleasant smile as the present.
He has attended closely to the wants of the people, and there is probably no man in the State who has given such general satisfaction in a public office as has Capt. J.W. Marshall.

WERE BOTH SEVERELY WOUNDED IN BATTLE OF SHILO
More Than Fifty Years Have Now Elasped, but the Recollection is Fresh in Their Minds.
From Monday's Daily.
Yesterday, the writer dropped into the Burlington station just before the afternoon train went east to see what the traveling public was doing, and found two of our dear old friends there telling of the time which has long since passed of the battle of Pittsburg Landing and of Shiloh, which were fought fifty-six years ago Saturday and yesterday.
These men, now aged as we count life, were then in the prime of their young manhood and filled with enthusiasm for the cause. They are Justus Lillie and Uncle John (Dad) Renner. they were both in the battle and each received a wound. The battle, which lasted two days, was not without its effect in the ulitmate outcome of the war, and although the northern forces were sorely beaten the first day they rallied on the next and with the aid of reinforcements, were able to carry off the honors.
The first day of this battle was the 6th day of April, 1862, and it was on this day that the southern army drove the federal forces back with such rapidity that they nearly pushed them in to the river. This was largely due to raw recruits being used in the northern army and the divisions were badly broken up and scattered. A detachment (illegible) would, however, be detailed in hold back the rebel forces as long as possible while the troops were formed into a semblance of an army again, and thus the fighting continued until nightfall.
By the morning of the 7th of April, General Buell had arrived with reinforcements and the result was the battle went against the rebels. Albert Sidney Johnson was in command of the rebels while Generals Grant and Sherman were in command of the union troops. The reinforcements which Buell brought up gave the northern side greater numbers, although the main advantage was in the troops which came to (article torn) being more seasoned fighters. The confederates were driven to Cornith, and the battle won by the Union troops.
In the battle the Union troops lost in killed 12,573 men and the losses of the Confederates were 10, 699. Dad Renner was wounded in the left arm and suffered a slight scratch across his waist line, the bullet cutting the waist band of his trousers as he was standing sidewise to the direction from which the shot came, and passed through his left arm near the elbow. Justus Lillie was wounded on the top of his left shoulder near the collar bone. The wounds of both of these men were so near serious that the excitement was intense, especially when so many men were being killed, dropping on every side.
These two jolly comrades were talking and laughing about the battle yesterday, but then it is now more than fifty years removed from the present day, and the war of the rebellion has been a matter of history for a half century.

THE FOREMAN DAMAGE SUIT
A Judgement Against Rock Island Railroad Company for $10,000 in Favor of James Foreman.
The case of James Foreman against the Rock Island railroad, which has been on trial in the district court before Judge Begley and a jury composed of W.B. Banning, George A. Kaffenberger, J.W. Magney, Charles Schneider, J.J. Bill, George Born, H.H. Stoll, W.N. Minford, C.A. Mathis, E.C. Twiss, A.S. Boyle, and Mont Robb, was brought to a close yesterday afternoon shortly after 4 o'clock when the case was submitted after the arguments by the attorneys.
The jury deliberated on the case until 10:30 last evening, when they returned a verdict for the plaintiff, Mr. Foreman, in the sum of $10,500. The amount sued for in the case was $50,000.
This case is the first of four suits growing out of the accident of the Rock Island railroad crossing at Alvo on the afternoon of January 17, 1916, and which resulted in the death of Miss Belle and Edith Foreman and Alma Godbey, who were in the automobile driven by Mr. James Foreman. As a result of the accident, Foreman has been crippled.
On the day of the tragic wreck, Mr. Foreman and the three girls were driving to Alvo to catch the local train, due to stop there at 5:12 p.m., and while their car was crossing over the tracks it was struck by the through passenger train, which was two hours late and running closely on the time of the local train.
The plaintiffs contended that the roadway leading to this crossing was in very rough condition, due to the fact that chunks of frozen dirt and ice had been thrown there by the section men of the defendant railroad company, and this rough condition of the road caused the engine of the auto to be killed as they came onto the railroad crossing and resulted in the car being demolished by the onrushing train.
The railroad company in their argument contended that the occupants and driver of the automobile did not exercise the proper amount of precaution in approaching the track and crossing and did not stop or look to see whether there was a train approaching at the time.

COUNTY TREASURER M. TRITSCH VISITS COUNTY
From Thursday's Daily.
M. Tritsch, county treasurer, was a passenger the morning for Louisville where he is looking after some business, and also will incidentally look after some of his politcal fences. M. Tritsch thinks it should not be necessary for one to go to the country to solicit support, but that the people should know what they want, know when they get good service, and be able to make up their minds themselves, which he says he thinks they are doing.

BESTOR SCHOOL IN 1884 - COL BAEHR ONE OF THE PUPILS
From Saturday's Daily.
Councilman Frank M. Bestor was showing us a record of the Bestor school in 1884, a school district of which his father was the director continuously for forty-three years. This is distict number forty-two, about six miles west of this city.
We notice the names on the roster of the school at that time, and found many who have since gone elsewhere are now scattered to every part of the country. Colonel Baehr of the new army, which is made in Nebraska, was a pupil. The teacher at that time was Myrtle Gilmore, and who is now Mrs. John Gustin, living near Murdock.
The list of scholars were; Mary Propst, Rosa Halmas, Ida Wehrbein, Emma Wehrbein, Maggie Jasper, Bartie Jasper, Mary Wehrbein, Minni Falter, Philip Becker, Eddie Becker, Willie Falter, Jacob Falter, Ed Rummell, George Born, Philip Tritsch, Phillip Born, George Halmas, Charles Bestor, Mary Becker, Willie Baehr, Walter Sundell, Louis Born, Guy Bestor, Joe Halmas, Lizzie Falter, Minnie Falter, and Henry Born, making twenty-six in all.
