MONDAY, FEBRUARY 21, 1949 THE BEND BULLETIN, BEND, OREGON PAGE EIGHT Couple Wed After Romantic Meet Aboard Train Omaha, Neb., Feb. 21 Ui The girl from Michigan and the boy across the aisle, strangers when they boarded a cross-country train Monday, met on Wednes day, and they were man and wife Saturday. "I knew from the moment 1 saw her I was going to trap her somehow," . said Murine Cpl. Floyd Slmonls, 23, Mllwuukle. "I had already made up my mind to say yes If he asked me to marry him," said Mary Ella Taunt, 19, Flint, Mich. "Well, he asked me." Talk With Eyes "We did most of the talking with our eyes," said Slmonls. "Across the aisle." Both boarded the train at San Francisco, taking opposite aisle seats. "I was bashful," explained Sim on Is. It was two days before, with considerable urging by Joe Burns, 45, a merchant seaman from Brooklyn, he got up cour age to cross the aisle. In two hours, It was all settled. Answer I Yen "When he told me he loved me and asked me to marry him when we got to Chlcugo," Miss Taunt said, "I told him I couldn't wait that long." They got off the train at Oma ha last night and dashed to the courthouse for a license. County clerk Joe Belltz wouldn't Issue one because Miss Taunt was only 19 and didn't have her parents' consent.
