From a Minneapolis paper we note the
following extracts from an account OF
the wedding of Miss Hlrrjot PilIsbury
and Harold Aver;
"A wedding which takes away from
Minneapolis the most Lcautliui, most
accomplished and most popular young
woman in the younger social set was
soIenuiz d last evening at Westminster
church. when Miss Harriet PDllsbury
dapgbter of Mrs. Fred c. Pilstury
became the bride OF Harold y. Aver OF
Savannah Georgia. Miss Pu'sbury IS
theeldesrand the first OF the three daugh-
tiers to leave the Pllshury home. Sic is
p graduate OF Miss Dana's school and
has Travelled extensively. She went
abroad about three years ago with
party chaperoned by Ms, William Don
adson. and it was while on trip East
about FIVE wears ago that sE. met Mr.,
Aver. Miss Pillsbury was first intro
duced at the Hostesses ball last season
and has since been a iavOritc in society. |
Mr. Aver is a prominent young business |
man of Savannah. He had never been |
in Minneap lis until he came here the
latter part OF last week and 1t was at a |
tea given by Mrs. Plllsbuy Friday that |
he first met many OF Miss PiIIsbury'S |
friends The wedding was the most |
brilliant and in many respects the most |
notable that has occurred here Tor sew
eral years. The appointments were eX-
quisite and the assemblage OF guests the
most fashionable that has gathered this
season. The interior Of the church pre-
scented a beautiful picture Green and
white were the tayOritc c1Iors and the
choicest flowers and plants from the hot
houses were arranged in manner at
once beautiful and yet suggestive OF sim
phcity.
"The guests began to assemble shortly
before the hour OF s 1t was shortly
after when Miss Elizabeth Donaldson,
who was the brides only attendant, en-
tered and advanced to the altar along
the left central aisle. She was followed
bv Miss PllIsbury, who came alone,
Miss Pilisbury never looked more beauh-
full. Her bridal gown was OF ivory white
satin, fashioned i'll severely simple style
with full court train Mr. Aver and his
best man, Edward Hosmer Harmon, of
Chicago, met the bride at the altar.
Rev, John Z. Bushnell and DR.. Pleasant
Hunter of Chicago, who came especially |
from Chicago to assist at Miss PIllsbury's
wedding, conducted the ceremony,
"a reception was held at the PlIlsbury |
home Immediately after the ceremony |
and was limited to 175 of the most init |
mate trends. The appointments were in
distinct contrast to those at the church. !
The rooms were og'ow with hundreds
of American Beauty roses. In every
nook ana corner the ruddy hue of these
flowers met the eye. Mr.. Aver and his
