last Thursday night, December 3oth, to wit
ness the marriage of his daughter, Miss Ag-
mes f. Gemberiing, and Mr.. Daniel A. Van

was performed by the Rev. }. d. Hewitt, pas
tor of the Presbyterian Church. Then fol-
lowed congratulations and supper; and such
wedding feast it has rarely been our lot to

beautiful and varicd-the tokens Of love
from father and mother, brothers and friends.
The evening closed with music and song.
and with many good wishes for the newly
married pair the company betook themselves
to their homes.
