One of the pretty weddings of the week
in Butte was that Of Mr.. Robert Raft and
Miss Marguerite Mcmillan, which took
place at the residence of the latter's
parents, No. 600 Colorado street, Wednes-
day evening. The affair was of more than
passing notice by reason of the fact that
the contracting parties are so we'll known.
Especially is this the case with the bride,
who has, been a resident of Butte many
years. Mr.. w. B. Rodgers acted as best
man and Miss Kate McGregor as maid
of honor. The ceremony was performed
by Rev. E.. J. Groeneveld of the First
Presbyterian church and was witnessed
by abou fifty relatives and friends of Mr..
Raft and his bride. 1t was followed by
the customary congratulations and we'd
ding supper in which all participated. The
presents were numerous and handsome,
one being a very substantial hard wood
extension table from the employees of the
Big BlackfoOt Milling company, of which
staff Mr.. Raft is also a member.
