To the Editor of the Eagle.
The most notable and pleasant event OF
the season in this city was the marriage last
evening, Jan. Sth, of Miss Kate, only daugh-
ter of Mr.. and Mrs. G.. II. Hutchins, to Mr..
Albert Williams, travelling salesman for
Jansen & Freyschtag, of Atchison. The
wedding took place at the family residence
at o'clock, p. m, Rev. A. Lucas officiating
Col. Allen Thomas and Miss Lura Hutch
ms acting as assistants.
The bridal party entered the parlor to the
/ strains of march and bore themselves
gracefully uuder the trying ordeal.
The bride wore white nuns yelling, pro-
fusely trimmed in lace and chenille, and
looked modest and pure as her garments.
Her bridesmaid in white also, with scarlet
fan and flowers Need describe the groom
and best man. Do they not always wear
the regulation suit and look happy-when
all is Overt There were only few of the
most intimate friends aud relatives present;
but they were merry company as you
would have found had you joined them at
the bou7tiful and elegant supper table spread
for their enjoyment. Laugh and jest went
merrily round the festive board. On
returning to the parlor everyone was COM
PEELED to dance-just once-even the brides
mother who declared she could beat them
all if she had mind to do SO, and we be-
lieved her. One thing she can do, land she
proved it, is to set a table tit for king.
Certainly none handsomer in decoration, or
better suited to the palate of the greatest
epicure, ever was spread in kingman. The
gifts were numerous and rich. Mr.. Hutch
ms is one of our Oldest and most successful
merchants, and Miss Kate (now Mrs. VIII
liams) is well known and liked in Kingman,
and her friends only regret that circumstan-
ces compelled her to make SO short list of
invitations. But all wish the happy couple
long life and prosperity, pleasant jour
ney to New Orleans and speedy return to
home and friends.
