Piper Bean,

A home wedding, one of the pleasant
est of the season, took place at the home
of Mr.. and Mrs. A. w. Bean on Thurs
day, May 81. About twenty relatives
and few friends were present. At II
O'Clock Miss May Wheeler played a
wedding march, and the groom, attended
by Will Beam entered the parlor followed
by the bride, who was attended by her
sister, Miss Helen Bean.
A ceremony, conducted by Rev. G. A.
Downey, followed after which Rev. H. J.
Piper had the pleasure of introducing his
wife, Mrs. Myra Bean Piper. At 1890
dinner was served after which the happy
pair took the train at Lyndonville for a
short stay at the White Mountains.
Showers Of rice and Of good wishes fol-
lowed them.
In the home circle most of all, but in
the entire community will Mrs. Piper be
missed, for the absence of one whose life
has been so full OF good influence and
good cheer will be felt. Those who know
her best unite in the thought that she is
eminently fitted for the life of usefulness
upon which she is so soon to enter.
The presents were numerous and USE
full, while many of them were costly.
Perhaps the most substantial gift was
FIVE hundred dollars from the father and
mother of the bride. The congratula-
tons OF the hosts OF friends unitedly fol-
low Rev. and Mrs. H. ]. Piper.
