William Innes ~ 1911

Having two newspapers in Grande Prairie must have been quite a challenge for the editors and writers, as in a small town there is only so much news to print.  These accounts of the same wedding really highlight the different styles of the editors of the two newspapers – one pretty straightforward, the other fairly flowery.  It was likely difficult for The Frontier Signal in this instance, as his report of the wedding appeared in the paper published six days after the account in The Herald.
