Marriage OF Thomas a. Edison To Miss
Nina Miller, of Akron, Ohio.
Akron (Ohio dspatch.l
Thomas A. Edison, the electrician, and
Nina, daughter of Lewis Miller, the million
aire manufacturer, were married at "Oak
Place" the elegant home of the Millers in
the western part of the city. The nuptials
were conducted according TO the form of the
Methodist Episcopal Church. Mr.. f. w.
Tappan, U. s. N, of New York, acted as
best man. The bride was given away by her
father, and there were no bridemaids.
The bride was attired in white silk, with
duchess and point lace, square neck, laced
corsage, and wore diamond and pearl orna-
ments. including costly pearl neclace, the
gift of the groom. The groom was attired
i'm black, wearing Prince Albert coat and
black tie, and with hands undressed. His
present TO the bride was diamond and
pearl necklace valued at $1,000, while au-
thenticated rumor has it that he also trans
ferred TO her $1,000,000 worth of real es-
tate. Among the other presents were many
sets of the richest and most elegant silver
table and ornamental ware, besides West
minister clock with chimes, diamond BRACE
let's, diamond, ruby, and sapphire pins, a
solid column of onyx, with gold capital,
and many other rare and costly jewels.
Congratulations were received under an
immense fo-Ol wishbone, composed princi-
pally of roses, after which dinner was
served by a chef from Chicago.
