 The church was beautifully decorated in green and white. Festoons of elk horn moss, asparagus fern and smllax reached from the chandeliers in the center to the walls. The chancel pre- sented a lovely appearance, with white drapings, trimmed in asparagus fern and white carnations and roses. The ceremony was performed under an im- mense wedding bell, made of white net, with decorations of smilax, ferns, white roses and carnations and white satin ribbons.
 The bride is the charming and ac' complished daughter of MT. and Mrs. John Henson, and has, during the brief year which she has resided in Douglas, gained large circle of friends and ad- mirers.
 The groom is young man of ster- ling worth and integrity, whom anyone might be glad to call friend.
