wedding gifts passed out of the mem
| DRY of the couple. Their daughter
grew up and was married recently.

years." says DR.. Estey.

rear lawn are hung pretty homespun
curtains made by a maternal forebear

plished musician, will play the we'd
ding march.

tinguished couple on their honeymoon
still remains a matter of doubt. Pass
