ORDWAY LEWIS NUPTIALS.
Reception at the Family Residence.
Over Two Hundred Present.

Il Il
Saturday evening was the occa-
sion of the marriage of Miss Alice
Lewis to VIM. F. Ordway at the
home Of George Ordway, Kapalama,
the Rev. H. H. Parker officiating.
Over two hundred people were
present.
The house was most beautifully
decorated with Hawaiian and
American flags and evergreens in
profusion. The whole house was
transformed into bower of beauty.
After the wedding a big spread
was found waiting in the dining
hall and a luau in the lanai. These
two places were of course the main
attraction of the evening after the
wedding.
Mr.. and Mrs. Ordway received
numerous presents from friends,
both here and in San Francisco.
The evening was rendered most
delightful by the music.
Messrs. U. J. Ordway, George
Ordway, Kirk Porter, C. Charlock
and B. l.. Finney received.
