THE NATIONAL ERA WASHINGTON, D. c., SEPTEMBER g. 1883

A correspondent writes from Stonington, CT
August %, AS follows:
"B aron Limbourg, the gentlemanly Ambas
ssdor from The Netherlands, and Miss Isabell,
Gas daughter of the Secretary of State, were
united in holy matrimony by the Rev. Mr. Wat
son, rector CT Calvary Church, Stoningten
The old gentleman was present, and gave ava,
the bride. The ceremony was marked, at leas
inside the sacred walls, by the absence of al
display-quiet and plain, becoming to sensibl,
folk.
"The ceremonies, which were strictly pri

ties, were commenced precisely at two O'CLOCK
P. M when the bride entered the church, lean
ing upon the arm of her father, and followed
BY M. Van Limbourg, Mrs. Garfield, and Mrs
Ledyard, daughters Of Gen. Cass, Mr. Zmmer

Of the Netherlands at New York, and Mr.. Led

happiness which generally characterizes the
more juvenile members OF the community at

The responses of the parties were exceed.

her answers in low tone, but 80 clear as to
be heard with thrilling effect by all and the
service, beautiful and affecting as it generally
is, lost nothing by the admirable delivery of the
officiating clergyman.

little while to the Wadawanuk House. The
General in the mean time wended his way
afoot to the depot, where, soon after, came the
happy bride and bridegroom, en- route for New

bid them fatherly farewell.
