upon her arrival at her new home.
The room was hushcd into perfect
silence when DR.. Beers opened his
prayer book and pronounced the first
word Of the beautiful service. From
the beginning to the close not IL word
of the groom's responses could be
heard by those standing even few
feet away. but Miss Sharon responded
in a low, yet clear and distinct tone.
Previous to the wedding the brides
maids removed the brides glove, and
the groom found the ring only after a
considerable search in his vest pocket,
which disclosed his possession of

married pair, after receiving DR..
