The Nott ~ Ward Wedding
A Quiet But Exceedingly Pleasant Affair
The marriage of J. Wallace Nott, of Watertown, New York, and Miss Allie Ward, of this place, by Reverend J. W. H. Carlisle, yesterday afternoon, at the residence of the bride's uncle, L[evi]. B. Lawrence, was the happy consummation of a long and pleasant acquaintance, and the most brilliant and exclusive affair of the season; none but the relatives and a few of the bride's most intimate friends being invited. The bride, formerly of Niles, but for the past four years preceptor of the Decatur school, has been too long and pleasantly associated with many of our readers to require a personal description. She was dressed in a most exquisite pearl colored silk with old gold and blue, brocade and satin trimmings. The groom, a prominent druggist of Watertown. is an entire stranger to all save a few of the older members of the community, by whom he is most favorably known, his toilet was scrupulously correct.
The [fuzzy words] were artistic and profuse. Suspended from the ceiling of the alcove formed by a bay window were festoons of evergreen, beneath which was [fuzzy] the same material from which the marriage bell was hung. On either side, standing in pleasant relief to the dark casings in the background were growing plants and flowers, and with the happy couple as a central figure the whole formed a pleasing picture long to be remembered by the assembled friends. The parlor was decorated with numerous beautiful bouquets, while over the door way was an elaborate horse shoe and stem of four leaf clover constructed of evergreens and trimmed with flowers and berries—the handiwork of Miss Jennie Buell. At the conclusion of the impressive marriage ceremony the customary congratulations were given after which the gathering assumed the form of a thoroughly enjoyable social party. The few present, other than resident friends, were Mrs. J. X. Chipman. of Niles; Mrs. W. A. McCollom, Council Grove, Kansas; Mrs. M. E. Buck, Mr. and Mrs. J . L. Harrison, Prof. and Mrs. H. Upton, Hon. and Mrs. A. B. Copley, of Decatur. The bridal presents ware as varied as they were beautiful and useful.
At an early hour a sumptuous wedding feast was served. The table presented a pleasing and tempting appearance. In the center were large and handsome bouquets, and the menu enhanced delicacies too numerous to mention. After refreshments had been served the time soon arrived for saying farewell, as the bridal party was to take an early evening train for the east. At the depot they were met by a large number of the bride's former pupils and other friends who had learned of the wedding and came to congratulate and say farewell to their teacher and friend.
A gold pen and holder was presented the bride by 26 of the high school scholars as a slight token of their regard for one with whom they had been so pleasantly associated. Mr. and Mrs. Nott will spend a few days at Niagara Falls, Rochester and Syracuse, after which they will settle in Watertown.
