Birth Announcement
At Tomales, Marin county, June 27th, the wife of A. Bean, of a son.

Marriage Record
Ed Bean, 31, married Lizzie Clark, 21, in Marin county, on November 21, 1890.

Mysterious Proceedings.
Messrs. Ed. Bean and Jim Lindsay drifted into San Rafael from Tomales yesterday on some mysterious mission that called them to the Court House forthwith. There they entered into close conversation with Deputy County Clerk Dougherty, who seemed to be of a deciding inquiring turn of mind, for he asked Mr. Bean a lot of questions, such as "what is your age," "have you ever been married before", etc., which usually are resented by gentleman as an impertinent intrusion into their private affairs. The gentleman however answered them patiently as well as a number of similar questions relating to a certain Miss Lizzie Clark. Mr. Dougherty having apparently relieved his mind, tendered Mr. Bean a parchment about 18 inches square. It seemed to be a representation of an individual in an elaborate dressing gown, reading the riot act or some other similar literature to a gentleman in a claw hammer coat, who held the hand of a lady, got up in party costume. It was a very nice looking picture, but the price Mr. Bean paid for it ($2.00) seemed a little high. After leaving the Clerk's office, Messrs. Bean and Lindsay had a brief interview with the Tomales colony, consisting of Tom Fallon and Frank Vanderbilt, now reinforced by M. Kirk and W.R. Fairbanks, who are serving on the Grand Jury, all of whom seemed to be in a high state of excitement. Of course, we can only guess the mission of the gentlemen at the Clerk's office, but whatever it was the Tocsin wishes it success.

The article about mysterious proceedings happened on the same day as Edwin and Lizzie's marriage. I believe the parchment described is the marriage license.

The couple were registered at the luxury International Hotel in San Francisco the next night.
