91-Year-Old Man Takes Bride Ten Years Junior

DAYTON, Pa. (AP) — David Coleman, who outlived three wives, in his 91 years, married-81-year old Carrie Kiehl Sunday night in a civil ceremony at the home of a daughter of the bride.

After the ceremony the couple left immediately for Coleman's home. The daughter, Mrs. Herbert Brosius, said "They feel they are too old to go on a honeymoon.

Earlier, Coleman told newsmen: "The world's full of women, There's no use being without one."

From the Warren Times-Mirror, 6/8/1959.

He'll be going on and on about flappers, nickelodeons and prohibition and that she's a hot patootie; but she'll have a blank look on her face, and ask "sounds aces, but what in the bee's knees are you talking about, Skipper? Forget it, let's drag a hoof to the soda fountain"
