June wedding at West Charleston.


Another pretty June wedding
and Mrs. I. O. Weymouth West
Charleston, at z o'clock Wednesday
evening, June %, when their daugh-
ter Miss Sylvia Frances was united
IN marriage to Willard Everett Cal
kins of Morgan.
The ceremony was performed by
Rev. w. G. Johnson of Derby In the

Miss Elsie Calkins close friend of

The bride presented a charming ap-
pearance in her gown of white canton
crepe trimmed with duchess lace and
tulle veil trimmed with orange blos-
SONS. She carried a shower bouquet
of brides roses and lilies of the val
ley. The bridesmaid wore a peach
organdie gown and carried a bouquet
of Ophelia roses. Mrs. Weymouth,
the brides mother, wore'a grey can
ton crepe, embroidered in blue and
grey.
At the strains Of the "Lohengrin's
wedding march" rendered by Mrs.
Adm Armstrong, the couple took
their place under large white bell
with it's decorations of evergreen and
pink roses. The bride was given
away by her father l. o. Weymouth
and Sylvia Armstrong, cousin of the
bride, very gracefully acted as ring
bearer and the emblems which seal
the bonds of matrimony were con-
cealed in dainty silver basket.
Following the ceremonysa reception
was held at the Weymouth home,
when nearly 200 friends of the couple
gathered to extend their best wishes
and to enjoy social hour. The din
ing room where refreshments were
served was very prettily decorated in
pink and white intermingled with
evergreens and wild roses. The
brides cake was cut and served to
the guests by the bride.
The young people closely guarded
several autos located about the vii
fage and the one the couple finally
got away in received a generous sup
ply of rose leaves and confetti, leav-
ing the grounds about the residence
white with rice.
Following an auto trip through the
White Mountains and a week in camp
at Seymour lake the couple will
make their home at West Charleston
The bride is the daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. /. o. Weymouth. She at
tended Lyndon Institute and for two
seasons assisted in the millinery par
lors of Mrs. Rosa M. Sawyer of New
port. The groom is the son of Mr..
and Mrs. j. A. Calkins of Morgan and
for the past year has been a popular
clerk at the Weymouth store where
he will continue to work.
The wedding gifts were numerous
and beautiful and included silver,
linen, cut glass, china, pyrex, pic
lures and several electrical articles,
also substantial sum of money in
cluded in which were several gold
pieces.
Those from out of town to attend
the wedding were Mr.. and Mrs. AL
vim Lawrence of Springfield, VT, and
Mrs. Rosa Sawyer and son Harley of
Newport.
