pie trimming over with desire TO see
and hear the process of Transforming
Miss Mary A., eldest daughter OF Mr..
John Roemer, into Mrs. w. Clarence
Findley. Most of the large press were
ladies, who came TO see-what? Per-
haps the costumes of the bridal party,
perhaps to gaze at the object OF their own
secret longings, or most likely from
feminine curiosity. A large sprink-
ling OF the masculine gender
had found its way there also
probably because the girls were there.
All OF these facts and suppositions
struck the mind OF the writer as he gazed
at the throng which watched with eager
eyes, for the advent of the bridal pair.
About Sis O'Clock the trlll which pre-
ludes the Mendelssohn' Wedding
March announced the important arrival,
and through the open doors the party
swept up to where Rev. j. ID. Mottatt
was standing in readiness. First came
two little blossoms OF girls, Misses Sallle
Roemer and Keo West, OF Bridgeport,
who faced the pair from the minis
ter's either hand, and presented
flowers. Thanked on either side
with an attendant couple, the ex-
pectant man and wife moved
slowly up the aisle and took their posi-
tons. The bride, a handsome, dark
eyed blonde, wore an elegant cream
silk, plain and brocaded, trimmed with
orange blossoms and lace, and partly
hidden under veil OF tulle. The dress
was cut en- prinCeSSe Il en- trdtne, low IN
the bosom and filled in with illusion.
Miss Flora Schneider, of Akron, was
clad in blue silk with blue and pink
flowers and a lace headdress. She Is
blonde in style, and occupied the posi-
ton OF first bridesmaid.
Miss Lottie Merriam OF the same
place, brilliant brunette, wore hand
some pink silk, trimmed with roses and
roses in her hair.
The groom, his chest man." Mr.. $. 5.
Miller, and Mr.. Will Heller, all of Ak
ron, wore full frocks, Prince Albert in
style, as did also the ushers, Messrs.
Austin Beach, John RiheldaiTer, Walter
Rinehart and II. Il. Holiday.
BY the time these discoveries were
made by half of the ladies in the audi
ence, the impressive ceremonial was
concluded and two lives welded into
one. With some difficulty, the bridal
party and guests pierced the crowd and
were driven to the residence OF Mr..
John Roemer, 2l27 Main street, where
a brilliant reception was given the bride.
The spacious parlOrs OF the ROemer
mansion were crowded to overlooking
with the guests who assembled to do
honor to the young couple. The rooms
were handsomely decorated with flowers
furnished by Col Hornbrook OF this
city and G.. II. Brown, of Akron. The
evening was pleasantly spent in social
conversation and some little dancing,
and the bridal party left for Columbus
on the ll:l5 train over the Central Ohio
road.
At lOo'clock the doors of the banquet
room were thrown open and the guests
invited to the feast, in the construction
Of which Peter Finn fairly surpassed
