bold, which occurred at St.
Thomas Episcopal church Tues
day evening.
Long before the hour set for
the ceremony, the church was
filled with friends OF the bride
and groom, who had assembled
20 witness their becoming man
and wife. In soft and subdued
zones, under the most able opera
ton of Miss Mary Hoham, the
pipe organ began the strains OF
The Spring Song. The music was
delightful and was followed by a
vocal number, by Miss Estella
Reynolds of Chicago. Miss
Reynolds is life long friend of
uhe bride ,and Tuesday evening,
her voice was at its best. The
pure clear strains filled thechurch
and the hearts of the listeners.
Promptly at s 100 O'Clock the
bridal party arrived and formed
at the church entrance. To the
strains of Lohengrii1, the bride
and her escort proceeded to the
altar. Four ushers, Walter Thay-
er, Lloyd Bowel, Hubert Sey-
bold, and Don Windiate, led, two
abreast. The bridesmaids follow
ed in pairs. These were the
Misses Cecile Burkett, Catherine
Mccormick, Floy Leonard and
Carrie Levy.
The bridesmaids were dressed
n pale green silk chiffon made
with trains and wCse white
picture hats and carried baskets
OF sweet peas. The Matron OF
Honor Mrs. Gertrude Gage wore

basket of brides roses. The
bride entered on the arm OF her
father. The brides dress was OF
white messaline made en- train
with the bridal veil. She carried
white prayer book and lace
handkerchief. The men wore the
conventional black.
AT the altar rail, the bridal
party was met by the groom and
best man, who entered from the
side. Here the party halted and
disposed themselves on either

matron, and father, advanced
within the rail. The rector Rev.

with the Episcopal ceremony,
ending with Il do declare thee

ranged for departure, the brides
maids leaning on the arms of the
ushers, the matron and best man
and the welded couple.

emory, a reception was given at
the residence on north Michigan
