Marriage of Ben G. Dowell and Elizabeth Brandes (date unknown)
No. 175 - Uncited clippings from the "Neva Murphy Hubbard Collection" of Beth Rengers Talken, 1998.

A quiet and pretty wedding occurred Wednesday afternoon at 3:15 o'clock at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Louis G. BRANDES, when their accomplished daughter, Miss Elizabeth, became the bride of Mr. Ben G. DOWELL, of Nowata, Okla. The ring ceremony of the Methodist Episcopal church was used and Rev. Charles LYNCH was the officiating minister. Only the immediate relatives of the family were present. Immediately after the ceremony the young couple left on the Burlington for Fayetteville, Ark., where a reception will be tendered them at the home of the groom's mother. They will be at home to their friends after December 1st at Nowata, Okla., where Mr. DOWELL has a position as casheir [sic]in the Nowata National Bank. Our best wishes are extended the young couple and we join their many Troy friends in wishing them joy and happiness.
