One of the prettiest of the summer
weddings was celebrated in the Meth
odist church last Thursday evening,
July Is, the contracting parties being
Miss Ruth, only child of Mr.. and Mrs.
]. s. Butler, and the Rev. Rutherford
| G. Moore, pastor of the church. The
alliance between one of our most
charming young ladies and a we'll
known and popular clergyman was
of great interest and attended by a
large number of friends and relatives.
All the members of Mr.. Moore's con-
gregation here and at East Lyndon
were invited, beside a great many
others in this and adjoining towns.
The church, which has recently been
re-decorated and newly carpeted,
looked most attractive in its trim
mings of green and white, quantities
of ferns and white flowers and crepe
paper being used. The decorations
were the work of loving friends in
the church. To the strains of the
Lohengrin march played by Miss
Beth Gorham of South Newbury, the
bridal party entered the church pre-
coded by the four ribbon bearers,
Mrs. Harry Croft and the Misses Sa-
die Lunge, Murie1 Trip and Edith
Lee, who formed an aisle for the pro-
cession by unrolling lengths of white
ribbon. Little Birdene Smith was a
charming ring bearer, carrying the
two rings on a cushion with much
dignity. The maid of honor was
| Miss Cnnifh af TIE
Mass, a college mate of the bride,
who wore white embroidered null
over pink and large white hat with
pink roses. The best man was Charles
Moore of Pawtucket, r. l., the
groom's brother. The bride wore
white let and satin with a tulle veil
and carried a large bouquet of white
bride roses. The double ring cere-
mOny was used, the officiating clergy
man being the Rev. r. F. Lowe of ST.
Johnsbury. After the ceremony Miss
Gorham played softly Mendelssohn' s
| Wedding March and Mr.. and Mrs.
Moore, with their parents took their
places under an evergreen arch. Here
the ushers, who were the Misses
IClara Eastman, Joanna Donaldson,
Grace Carter, Iva Gilman and Grace
Gray, escotred the guests, and for a
short time an informal and pleasant
reception was held. Mr.. and Mrs.
Moore took their way from the
church entrance to their waiting
automobile through a gauntlet of
friendly faces and a shower of con-
| fetti. After a short absence the
happy pair will return to spend the
summer with Mr.. and Mrs. Butler,
before going to housekeeping in the
fall. Mrs. Moore is a graduate of
Boston University and has been
teaching near Boston for two years.
Mr.. Moore is a native of Rhode Is
land and is very much liked by the
people of his church. Many very
beautiful and useful presents attest
the friendship of host of people for
the newly welded pair.
