was married to Donald King Miller

The church was decorated with
evergreen and flowers for the oc-
casion. Extending the width of the
pulpit platform was a screen of ever
green five feet hioh. The effect of
the green was frightened by sprays
of larkspur in all the shade of blue
and stalks Of deep red hollyhocks so
placed as to look as though they were
growing against the screen.
The choir at the left was banked
with evergreen and 'sumach buds
while at the right side of the pulpit
were many small evergreen trees be-
hind which the orchestra was placed.
Extending from the electrolier were
garlands of evergreen reaching to The
corners of the screen and to points
in the rear of the screen. Before
the arrival of the bridal party Allen
Hunter and Leslie Moyle of St.
Johnsbury rendered musical pro-
gram. The chapel was filled with in
vited guests.
At 3 o'clock the bridal party en-
tered the church to the strains of the
wedding march from Lohengrin's.
