 Although Tuesday evening seemed unpropitious for a church wedding, the heavy clouds broke away before the ap- pointed hour, and the sun smiled brilliant ly on the contracting pair, J. Clarence Read, book-keeper and pay-master of the Weetamore mill, Fall River, Mass, and the daughter of deceased soldier and Holt, an army nurse. Since that esteemed iadys death the bride, when in Wiling. ton, has made her home at 0. T. Preston's. For the last two years she has been at- tending school at Fall River. The bridal party walked across the common from "Maple Corner" to the church, entering to the music of a wedding march, played by Miss Sharp, in the following order : Right aisle, usher Will s. Read. of Fall River, brother of the groom, Chas. T. Preston and the bride, Miss Alice M. Preston of Williamstown, Mass. left aisle, usher Harry A. Preston of Stafford, Mrs. Annie A. Preston and the groom, Miss Mabel A. Terry. The pair came to- gether under 8 bell made of laurel and autumn leaves, and were met there by the pastor, Rev. W. R. Terry, who conducted the beautiful and impressive marriage scr vice, the ring being used. The church was finely decorated with flowers, ferns and autumn leaves, arranged by Mrs. Ter ry and MT. Walter Allen, interior decora- tor, of Boston, who, with his wife, mee Nellie Brown, was present. The happy pair left on the 2.48 p. m. train for New York, amid showers of rice, old shoes and good wishes (much to the dismay of Con- ductor Downer), merry party accompa- nying them to the station. The brides outfit was ordered from Lord & Taylor, Broadway and 20th street, New York, and was perfect in every particular.
