that Mr.. Boyd is the most fortunate of
human beings. The bride is lovely
woman. possessed of all the graces and
virtues that adorn her Sex. She is al
ornament in society and is beloved by all
who ever knew her--trne, pure and no.
BILE.
The groom is a dear friend of the writer,
and we heartily wish him and his briae a
world of joy. In the words Of the poet:
'.May all the blessings of the Lord,
In one big batch be your reward;
And when you've used up that supply
May there be others waiting by
Impatient in their purpose to
Pour all their richness down on you.
May three score years and ten--man S time
still find you joyous in your prime,
And quite as youthful by your side
TOday's expectant, happy bride,
With orange blossoms. sweet and fair,
Entanglet in her silver hair;
And over all a sky as blue
As now bends over both Of you.
Unscarred by storms-the storms have passed.
To make 1t clearer at the last
And when at last the end shall be-
In Gods own time-may you and she, i i
Serene in faith, go hand In hand
Into the endless sweetheart land"
