The marriage Of Miss Annie Nell
son, daughter Of Hon. N. E. Nelson,
for a long time collector Of U. s. Gus.
toms at Pembina, to Mr.. A. Monta.
quo Of Dickinson, August Z, was the
most brilliant society event ever wit
messed inl Pembina.
The bride has been one of the lead.
ers among the young people Of Penn
bina where she was general favor
ite, and her friends throughout the
state number very many. The groom.
now member of the asylum board,
is also widely and favorably known
throughout the state. Hence several
hundred invitations were issued to
the wedding.
The day was most beautiful; and If
clear skies and bright sunshine are
typical of a brides future, Mrs. Mon.
tague's married life will be unclouded.
The PRESBYTERIAN church, where
the ceremony occurred was prettily
decorated with ferns and flowers.
At ten o'clock the wedding march
pealed forth and the bridal party ad-
vanced to tho altar. Two ushers. the
maid Of honor, Miss Helen Nelson,
and the bridesm aids. Misses Cora
Nelson and Matte LaMoure, entered
upon the left, followed by the bride
upon the arm of her father. Two
ushers led the way upon the right and
the groom, accompanied by his best
man, Dr.. E. G. Branch of Dickinson,
advanced to meet the bride at the al.
tar. The ceremony was impressively
performed by Rev. r. johnson. AS
the last words of the marriage serv.
ice died away every bell in the city
pealed out the tidings-a novel but
pleasing feature upon such an occa.
sion.
The bride was gowned in white
duchess satin, with pearl and crystal
trimmings, wore the usual veil and
carried white roses. Miss Helen Mel.
son woer white figured silk with rib.
bon trimmings. Miss Cora Nelson's
gown was pale green silk with lace
and ribbon and Miss LaMoure's cream
cashmere and silk with ribbon.
Other ladies of tho brides immediate
family were handsomely gowned and
and elegant toilets were noticeable
worn by lother guests. The groom
wore the conventional black.
Following the wedding ceremony
the guests were driven to the spa.
cious and hospitable home of Hon.
and Mrs N. E. Nelson where recep.
tion was held from eleven until one.
Dainty refreshments were served in
the groves about the house.
Mr.. and Mrs. Montague left on the
afternoon tram. The Pembina cor.
net band was at the depot; and amid
music and showers of rice, one of
Pembina's best and most popular
daughters left for her new home.
Mr.. and Mrs. Montague were ten.
dered an elegant reception in Grand
Forks Wednesday evening by the
Pioneer Club. In Fargo they were
the guests of Maj. and Mrs Fleming.
Mr.. and Mrs. Montague arrived
home Saturday and went at once to
their pleasant home on Sims street.
Mrs. Montague is not unknown in
Dickinson; and Dickinsonians are
very glad to welcome her as resi-
dent. The PRESS but voices the sen
timent of all the people when it con-
graduates Mr.. Montague and wishes
for him and his lovely bride all hap
piness.
