MISS LILLIAN FAY Il
MARRIED YESTERDAY

Yesterday at high noon Miss
Lillian Nevada Fay, eldest daught-
er of Mr.. and Mrs. NJ. E. Fay of
Sheridan, was united in marriage
to Mr.. Cleveland Benz jamin Lead
better, the Rev. c. H. Powell,
Rector of st. Peters church of Car
son officiating. The beautiful and
impressive ceremony of the Episco-
pal church took place at Fairview
Farm, the home of the brides
parents, and was witnessed only
by relatives aud few intimate
friends of the contracting parties.
The bride, who is q woman of
marked beauty and personal
charm, was gowned in = dainty
creation of Nessaline silk trimmed
with lace. She was attended by
her sister, Miss Irma Fay, sttirsd
in a cream colored chiffon voile
gown, while Mr.. Ernest Fay full
filled the duties of best man.
Congratulations followed after
which a wedding breakfast WAS
served at which amid the flow of
champagne, sincere expressions Of
good wishes were INDUCED in by
the assembled guests.
Mr.. Leadbetter, the groom, is q
graduate of the University of Nsva-
da and for the past three years has
held prominent position with one
OF the largest mining companies in
the Transvaal, from where he
came a month or SO ago to claim
his bride.
The couple received q large
number of handsome and valuable
gifts, which fact signifies the ap-
probation Of the love and esteem
in which the young people are
held.
The writer WAS graciously per-
mitted a glimpse of portion of
the nuptial toggery, and although
far from critic of female sortorial
equipment, he pronounces the dis
play as daszlingly faultless, a. be-
Ats the pulchritude Of the owner
and tends towards remuneration
of his misogynist proclivities. The
travelling gown, tho going away
gown, the reception gown, all were
beautiful specimens of the dress
makers art. The latter named
gown made Of an unpronounce-
able silk material in Copenhagen
blue, suggested unique loyalty
to geo. raphical environment that
is eminently commendable.
The happy couple will remain
a few days at the homs of the
brides parents, after which they
will start for their future home at
Johannesburg, South Africa.
This paper and their hosts of
friends wish the happy couple 4
long, pleasant and prosperous life.
