Gallagher--Kitz
  St. Peters church, Monticello, June 14th, was the scene of a very pretty
wedding when Mr. Thomas F. Gallagher and Miss Clara Kitz, both of Mongaup
Valley, were united in marriage with a nuptial Mass, Rev. Father Mearns,
pastor, officiating.  The bride was becomingly attired in a tailor made
suit of gray cloth and large picture hat and carried a white prayer book.
The groom wore the convential black.  The couple was attended by Mr. and
Mrs. Wm Daucher, sister and brother-in-law of the bride.  After the ceremony
the bridal party consisting of the immediate relatives of the contracting
parties were driven in automobiles to the home of the bride's sister,
where a sumptuous breakfast was served after which they were driven to
the O. & W. depot where they took the 9:30 train for New York city and
other places of interest.  On their return on Monday evening, June 19,
a reception was tendered them at the bride's home, Mongaup Valley, more
than a hundred guests participating.  Dancing was indulged to the strains
of excellent music.  At 12 o'clock the guests were summoned to the dining
room where a bountiful supper was served.
  The esteem in which the couple were held was made evident by the many
handsome and beautiful gifts received.
  The guests from out of town were Mrs. John Kissinger of Port Jervis,
Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Kitz and family of Fish's Eddy, Mr. and Mrs. Wm Kitz and
son of Mileses, Mr. and Mrs. Chas Heidt of Kenoza Lake, Mr. Andrew Gallagher,
Rockaway Beach, L. I.
