A NUPTIAL SURPRISE.
Miss Nellie Lynott Of the West Side
and Homer Van Gorder Welded in
Windsor, N. Y, Last September.
vecterdav

There seems no end to nuptial sur
prses, in Carbondale which have fol-
lowed closely upon each other the past
six months.
The latest surprise of this character
was yesterday, when the news leaked
out of the marriage of the daughter
and son of two well known families of
Carbondale. Miss Nellie Lynott, young
est daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Thomas
Lynott, Of the West Side and Homer
Van Gorder, son of Mr. and Mrs. c. B..
Van Gorder, of Terrace street.
The wedding took place last Septem-
Der when Carbondale was beginning to
celebrate her golden jubilee. On Mon
day, September 2, they quietly with
drew from the festivities to Windsor,
N. Y. where the ceremony that united
their young lives was solemnized. They
returned to Carbondale in the evening,
but kept the news of the union secret
until a few days ago, when it was an
nounced to the families This interest
ing announcement will be eagerly re-
ceived among the young people of the
town as the parties are conspicuous in
their social sets and have hosts of ad-
mirers.
Mr.. Van Gorder has been an efficient
employee for the Carbondale Telephone
company until a few weeks ago when
he resigned to accept an advanced
position with the Interstate Telephone
company at Trenton, N. j., one which
offers opportunities to satisfy his am
bton to rise.
Mrs. Van Gorder has a sunny dis
position which readily wins friends.
They will probably take up their resi-
dence in Trenton, but not for some
weeks. Mr.. Van Gorder is home in
Carbondale for a few days.
