was enough of color 10 relieve any
monotony. The list of presents re-
ceived by the young people was var
led and extended. Compliments were
received from hosts of relatives and
friends and some came from most I'M
expected sources. Numerous most
elegant pieces were received and the

a large room of the nome. The gowns
seen during the evening were elegant
and beautiful. The bride wore a
very beautiful gown of white lace
