LOcke-ktice.

At high noon on Wednesday May 10Th,
the house of Mr.. and Mrs Edward Rice,
No. l kennebec ST., Skowhegan, was the
place of pretty scene, the occasion
being the marriage of their daughter
Miss Myrtle l.. to Mr.. Thomas X. Locke
resident and prominent real estate
dealer of Portsmouth, N. H. The bride
was charmingly attired in a travelling
dress of pearl gray and carried a beauti-
full cluster of brides roses. The groom
wore the conventional black.
The beauty of the scene was much en-
HANGED by the tasty arrangement of the
numerous ferns and potted plants.
Thr ceremony was performed in the
presence of the immediate relatives of
the contracting parties by Rev. Geo. f.
Leighton. A large number of wedding
gifts attest we'll the esteem in which the
couple is held and affords them the
plea ure of taking to their future home
in Portsmouth, N. H., reminders of the
many best wishes of associates and
friends.
The bridal party left on the l.35 P. M.
train.
