Carpenter Family - Dryden Henderson Carpenter - 1909 Marriage Announcement

I had found this at one time but lost. About 5+ years I was contacted by a relative through this couple's marriage. 

This article was found at Newspapers.com. The paper was The Daily Chronicle, printed in D Kalb Illinois. The date of the paper was 12 May 1909, Wed., page 4. 
This clipping reads: 

DECEMBER AND MAY ARE WEDDED

Aurora man, Aged 59Years, to Wed Buxom Lass of Twenty Years.

     The classic combination of December and May are again to be tied, according to advices this afternoon from Sycamore. In the middle of the afternoon a wedding license was applied for by Dryden H. Carpenter, aged 59, of Aurora and Miss Amie C. Geishert, aged 20 years of Davis Junction, Ogle county.
    The supposition is that Miss Geishert, is to come to Sycamore this afternoon and the couple will be married either at that place of in DeKalb.
     Mr. Carpenter is a robust looking middle aged gentlement whose appearance belies his years and his bride is presumably a buxom lassie although she had not appeared at the county seat at the time of going to press.
