of guests, relatives and friends, some of whom
had come many miles to participate in the
pleasures of the happy occasion. They were
welded in the parlor, which had been artist
caly decorated with floral designs. Over the
mantel hung a horseshoe i'll variegated blossoms,
and just beneath that was a large bouquet of
fragrant flowers. A canopy Of smilax and leaves,
from which depended a yoke of roses and other
blooms, hung just before the south window, and
it was under this the young people stood during
the ceremony. They were preceded by the
young brother and sister Of the bride-Master
jamie and little Miss Mary-who came in hand
and stationing themselves on either side of the
young couple, whose coming was made known
by the playing of a bridal song and Mendelssohn's
wedding march by Mr.. Cliff Myers.
In the conducting Of the nuptial service the
Rev. DR.. Bayliss was assisted by Rev. w. N.
Brodbeck. pastor of the Walnut Hills Methodist
Episcopal Church. The bride wore an elegant
robe en- train, of cream surah and brocade, with
crepe front. trimmed with a profusion of Ouch
esse lace. The neck was cut square and filled in
with lace. At her throat there sparkled a dia-
mond pin, and jewels of the same precious sort
were in her ears. She carried a large bouquet of
t~ea-roses. The collation. which followed the
ceremony was of Keppler's service. Mr.. and
Mrs. Jeffrey were the recipients of numerous
handsome presents. friends in Detroit, New York
