 The bride is one of Douglas fairest daughters, who has grown from girl hood to young womanhood in our city. The admiration usually sustained for youth, is heightened in this case by the sweet, happy disposition of the young bride. May many rich blessings follow her through life, is the wish of her friends.
 The groom is a young man whose ability and integrity have placed him in position of trust with the Alaska TreadwelI Gold Mining Go.
