Hollenbeck today for New York state will mean the re-marriage of Mr. Hollenbeck and his first wife on his arrival at Preston Hollow. Over forty-five years ago the Hollenbecks separated. Mrs. Hollenbeck and a daughter remained in the old home, and Mr. Hollenbeck and his son Wilsie came to Kansas. Years after coming to Kansas Len married again, his last wife dying about a year ago. The first wife never married. Continued pleading from the daughter has resulted in her parents deciding to remarry and pass their declining years together.
