"Eight young ladies had a delightful picnic yesterday afternoon at Prouty's grove. They had their supper at the grove and later went to the home of Miss Cora and Miss Minnie Leebrick where they had a slumber party. The afternoon and evening were most enjoyable with music and games. About midnight, the neighborhood was awakened by a number of young men who appeared to be trying to serenade the girls. With the exception of this incident, the party was a very pleasant one."--28 Aug 1906, The Evening Kansan-Republican (Newton, KS)

"The Epworth League gave a reception Monday night in Epworth Hall in compliment to Miss Mabel Chandler and Miss Minnie Leebrick. A pleasant informal evening was spent visiting with the young ladies who were the honor guests. Several impromptu addresses were made. Miss Chandler and Miss Leebrick left today for Kansas City where they will enter the Fiske Training School for Deaconesses."--26 Sep 1906, The Evening Kansan-Republican (Newton, Ks)

"Miss Minnie Leebrick, the Newton district deaconess, is spending the month of December with the El Dorado Methodist church. She is making house to house visitation. She is a graduate of the Fisk Training School of Kansas City, one of the best deaconess schools in the nation."--18 Dec 1908, Walnut Valley Times (El Dorado, KS)

"First Methodist Church Will Have Miss Leebrick, the Deaconess. -- The quarterly conference of the First Methodist church on Monday night voted to employ Miss Minnie Leebrick, the deaconess, for another year. Miss Leebrick is a valuable assistant to Dr. M. E. Nethercutt, pastor of this church. She calls on the sick, new members, probationary members, the shut-ins and the elderly people, besides assisting in all departments of the church life. In this church with nearly 1,100 members, a deaconess, or assistant pastor, is almost a necessity, and can find plenty of work to do all the year round. Miss Leebrick has had a full course of training at the training school of the church at Kansas City, and has been with the Hutchinson church most of the last year."--16 Mar 1910, The Hutchinson (KS) Gazette

"For Miss Leebrick. Feathery asparagus and quantities of roses and blue cornflowers made the parlors of the First Methodist church most attractive Thursday afternoon for the reception given by the women of the Executive board and the captains of the Ladies' Aid for the 'assistant pastor', Miss Minnie Leebrick, who will leave June 1st for a quiet summer at home in Newton preceding her early autumn wedding. Few young women have more endeared themselves in lives of service than the deaconess who has been associated with every activity and work of the church for the past seven years. The afternoon was thoroughly informal and enjoyable, and at its close Mrs. E.M. Davis read an original rhyme that took account of everyone present and the incident as a speech of presentation. The gift was a set of white Haviland china and a beautiful comfort made by the members of the Aid...."--22 May 1914, The Hutchinson (KS) Gazette

"Leebrick-Horn. The following clipping from the society column of the Hutchinson Gazette tells of a wedding which is of interest to many Newton people. The bride is a daughter of Mrs. Mary Leebrick, who resides north of Newton, and this was the home of the bride until she took up deaconess work in the Methodist church.
"The friends of many years comfortably filled the First M.E. church Wednesday evening for the wedding ceremony of Miss Minnie Leebrick, former deaconess for the First church, and Mr. Clyde Horn, of Stafford, solemnized at half past seven o'clock with Dr. J. W. Abel, the pastor, to read the ring service. There were no attendants, but an old friend, Mrs. Will Yerkes, played the processional and Miss Erma Parks sang a lovely bridal song before the ceremony. The ushers added to a wedding replete with sentiment and interest, for they were four pastors who had been either the groom's pastors or with whom the bride had been associated when she was a deaconess. They were Rev. W.V. Burns of Winfield, Rev R.L. George of Newton, Rev. Mr. Buck of Stafford and Rev. W.V. Stevens of this city. The bridal gown was beautifully fashioned of white crepe meteor with handiwork of tiny roses and French knots. The full length veil was softly folded into a most becoming arrangement and an arm bouquet of bride roses made a lovely finishing tough. A reception at the home of Dr. and Mrs. J.W. Abel followed the ceremony. It was for the relatives of the bride and groom, Mr. and Mrs. J. Will Horn and Mr. and Mrs. Cyril Horn, all of Stafford, the groom's parents and brother and sisters, the bride's mother, Mrs. Mary Leebrick, and her daughters of Newton, Mrs. Cora Gibson, Miss Myrtle and Miss Susie Leebrick, and for a few other out of town guests, who came for the wedding. Mr. and Mrs. Horn left late in the evening for a trip to eastern points. They will live in Stafford on their return."--5 Dec 1914, The Evening (Newton) Kansan-Republican.
