BURR-NETTLETON.

The home of Mir and Mrs Nelson G. Burr of Cupboard Hill, was the scene of quiet wedding, Thursday, Septem- Der, l9, when their eldest daughter, Susan May, became the bride of Willis Mills Nettleton of Washington, Conn. The ceremony took place at 12.30 and was witnessed by the members of the immediate families. The simple but impressive marriage service was per formed by Rev r. E. Snow, under an arch of golden rod entwined with green and white. At the appointed time the bride and groom entered the room as Mendelssohn's wedding march was played by Miss Mary Hollister a niece of the groom. They were accompanied by little Abbie Hollister, bearing the wedding ring within wreath of pan sies. The bride wore pleasing gown of white crepe de chine and carried roess. Among the numerous handsome gifts were silver, linen and china, be- sides a substantial sum of money. An interesting fact in connection with the date, is that it was the 6Sth anniver- sary of the marriage of the brides grandmother, who was present. MT and Mrs Nettleton have the best wishes of many friends both here and in Washington, where they will reside. =
