TRUMBULL. TAIT-PLUMB. Tuesday afternoon, although stormy, very pretty wedding took place at the Congregational church, the interested parties being Miss Elizabeth Clark Tait and Charles Franklin Plumb, both of Trumbull. Considering the inclemency of the weather, the church editice was we'll filled with relatives and friends. Willard s. Plumb, organist of the church and brother of the groom, rendered a pleasing organ program while the guests were arriving. Shortly after o'clock, the bridal party moved slowly up the aisle. The bride looked charming in an attractive white Princess Louise gown, cut decollette, with escural trimming, carrying a bouquet of white rosebuds and attended by her maid of honor, Miss Annie T. Kelley, attired iD white satin costume, trimmed with La TOsca net and carrying a.boquet of pink rosebuds. The ushers weIe Messrs Andrew Tait, broth CT of the bride; Arthur E. Plumb, broth CT of the groom; Orville B. Burton and Wilbert N. French. The bride was met at the altar by the groom and his best man, Joseph A. Hofmann of Jersey City. The ceremony was performed by Rev N. T. MerWin of Poquonock, former pastor of the church, after the Episcopal form. The church was tastefully decorated with chrysanthemums, ferns, etc., a pill low taking the place of the pulpit, with the letters ''P" and ''I'' arranged by members of the choir, of which MT and Mrs Plumb were also members. The party left the church to the music of MendelssOhn's wedding march. A re- ceptiOn was held after the ceremony at the residence of the brides parents, Mir and Mrs William Tait. The bridal party re- ceived the congratulations and best wish es of their relatives and friends under festoons of ground pine and amid bow CT of potted plants. At o'clock, all were invited to the dining room, where tables stood laden with all one could wish. Andrew Tait, in his Slst year, asked the blessing.
