The groom wore a black suit, light necktie and patent leather shoes, while the bride was attired in a green silk dress trimmed with pearl and with a white silk and chiffon front. At 11:30 o'clock, the time set for the nuptials, the guests had all arrived and all repaired to the parlor. Miss Sadie Nichols played the wedding march and the principals in the affair entered, preceded by 'Squire Sanders, and the ceremony was then performed in a simple but impressive manner. After congratulations the dining room, where the tables were laden with delicious culinary productions and adorned with beautiful flowers, became the most important object of interest for about one hour. Many handsome and valuable presents were received in an appreciative manner.
