Albrightsville Thursday, Sept. 10th
1891 u. s Z. NJ. Quite a number
of Kingwood people attended and
many other friends and relatives Of
the bride and groom, thus testifying
to the popularity OF the happy coz
ple. The church was decorated
with beautiful arch of evergreen
in front Of the altar, from which
hung suspended a wedding bell
constructed of pine. Messrs Frank
Murdoch and j. Will Fawoett acted
as ushers.
At the appointed time the we'd
ding party entered and marched un
the aisle to the strains of the we'd
ding march played 10y Miss Grace
Martin. Mr.. Charles Beavers,
brother OF the groom, and Miss Ellie
Feather were the attendants. In
front Of the altar and under the
arch of evergreen, the marriage
ceremony was appropriately solemn
lied by Rev. NJ. w. Rider of King
wood. The bride looked very
sweet IN dress Of some soft cream
colored fabric, while the groom,
dressed in the conventional black
presented handsome and manly
appearance, and altogether every
thing passed off very nicely without
Il flaw and but one hitch, that of
the nupital knot.
After tho ceremony the party
repaired to the home Of the bride,
where they were given a rousing big
oldfashioned serenade by the bows.
who lad gathered in from the STIR
rounding country, with shot-guns,
cowb bells and various instruments
TO make night hideous. Next day
the party went to Tunnelton, where
they were tondered an elegant re.
ception that night at the home OF
the grooms parents, Mr.. and Mrs.
George w. Beavers. Here they
caught another sercnade from the
boys. Saturday they returned to
Albrightsvil:c d Monday came to
Hingwood and went to housekeep-
Ing in the Crane property near the
Presbyterian Church, which had
been rented and Handsomely fur
nished by the groom, all ready to
move into and take up the thread
OF domestic life at once, without
unn ecessarY delay and the cxpenee
of long and tiresome bridal tour
TO the Eastern citi, as is considered
customary. We heartily approve Of
their example and may other bridal
couples go and do likewise. The
bride received many handsome and
valuable presents and the Young
couple set sail on the matrimonial
sea all rosy colored with the splen-
dor Of bright prospects spread ont
before them. Mr.. Beavers il one
Of Kingwood's rising young men
and most successful merchants.
The bride was one Of AlbrIghts-
villc's most charming young ladies
and what is the :" Bridge City's"
loss is Kingwood's gain. Monday
night the Mozart Band came out
and sercnadcd them at their new
home, and Tuesday night the
"String Band " gave them another
serenade, SO that they got full
share OF it.
