Miss Jessie E. Bossard, daughter
of Mrs. Charles E. Bossard, and Harold

and Mrs. John A, Genung, were married
at the home of the bride's mother,
419 North Cayuga Street, at 9 o'clock
last evening. The ceremony was witnessed
by the immediate families.
Mr. and Mrs. Genung left last night
for a wedding trip to New York City
and Washington.
The bride is a popular Ithaca young
woman. She was graduated from the

Sorority.

Zeta fraternity high school, and
Omega Tan Sigma, collegiate. He is
a member of the class of 1916 in the
New York State College of Veterinary
Surgery. Mr. and Mrs. Genung will
live at 410 North Cayuga Street
Mr. Genung, who is a popular member
of the Ithaca Fire Department and
prominent in company No. 8. was tendered
a parting ovation by members
of "3's", who gathered in a body at
the Bossard home, immediately following
the ceremony, to congratulate
the young couple. The bride and
bridegroom, however, made a detour
that completely foiled the gathered
firemen, only one of whom, Capt
"Deak" Tailby, located their whereabouts.
Captain Tailby reported on
returning from his investigation that
as the official representative of the
company he had transacted all business
necessary to an "official'* farewell
and that the newlyweds had
clambered into a waiting automobile
in Sears Street and escaped.
