The Glenwood post., 1911-04-22
HAPPILY Welded

AT the home of the bride last Tues.
day afternoon, April IS, 1911 at 4
CLOCK occurred the pretty wedding of
Miss Ivy Isabelle Hum to Mr.. Thomp-
son Edward Dever, both of this city.
Only few immediate friends were
present to enjoy the beautiful cere-
mony on the momentous occasion. I'm
mediately after the delightful wedding
dinner which followed the ceremony
the young couple left for Colorado
Springs and Denver on Midland 6 to
enjoy short honeymoon. To avoid
the showers of rice and old shoes and
other discarded paraphernalia, the brid
al party was autoed to Cardiff where the
train was taken. The young people
will reside at 81 Bennett Avenue
where they will be at home to their
friends after May 1st
The bride is the eldest daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. Joseph s. Hum, wei!
known residents of Glenwood who came
here from Aspen eight years ago. The
popularity of the bride and the esteem
by which she is held is evidenced by
the large number of gifts, consisting
of elegant cut glass, exquisite etchings
serviceable silver ware and useful linen
received. The groom is a young man
of sterling qualities, who has made
many friends during his stay in Glen
wood by his honest and upright deal
ings with the public. He came here
from Missouri two years ago and has
been employed at Sam Dougan's as
jeweler, ever since.
The decorations were superb and
fitted the occasion extremely well. Tha
parlor, where the ceremony took place
was decorated with smilax, fern leaves,
geraniums, palms, white carnations.
Easter and Gala lilies. White was
the color scheme. The flowers were all
banked in the western end of-the room
with the tall stately palm in the center
of semi circle. In the center of the
parlor was suspended a large floral bell
of smilax and fern leaves. The dining
room was decorated with smilax and
fern leaves. On the table, pink carna-
tions, pink roses and fern leaves were
tastefully arranged. The effect of the
blending of the china and silverware
and the pink color scheme of the floral
decorations was artistic.
In the services the beautiful ring
ceremony was used. To the strains of
Mendelsohn IS Wedding March, splen
didly rendered by Mrs. Roi Pratt, Sis
ter of the groom, the bridal party came
slowly down the stairs and took its
place in the parlor. The bride was
led by the father followed by the
brides maid, Miss Pansy Ruth Hum.
and bride mother. Lastly came the
bridegroom escorted by Albert H. Mil
Ter who acted as groomsman. The
party took its place in the center of
the room facing the east with the bride
and groom under the bell and within
the shadow of the sheltering palm.
With a short but richly worded service
the young couple were united in the
Holy bonds of matrimony by Father
Carrigan. Joe Hum. brother of the
bride, acted as server to Father Carri-
gan. The bride looked very charming
in her gown of crepe de chene trim
med with pearls. She carried large
boquet of Killarney roses. The brides
maid appeared in dress of white EN-
broidery and carried boquet of pink
carnations. The groom and the grooms
man were both attired in conventional
black.
In an effort to elude their multitude
of friends with their appropriate com
pliments the bridal party was driven
to Cardiff by Morgan Gavin. However
the friends were not to be denied and
when the couple got on the train they
were surprised to find that the car was
packed with those whom they sought
to elude. Rice, confetti and then more
rice and confetti was showered upon
them until they were completely COW
cred. The seat that they were to occu-
py had been previously decorated with
large sign containing words suitable
for the occasion. When the train
started the bride was heard to sigh that
she was glad the ordeal was over.
Those who had come to Cardiff to wish
the young couple God speed were then
| driven to the home of Mr.. and Mrs.
Hum in the Worries and Gavin cars
where reception was held.
