The bride was becomingly attired in white muslin, and carried a bouquet of white asters. Miss Thomas wore white, and carried a colored bouquet.
Refreshments of ice-cream and cake were served by Miss Clara Dickey, sister of the bride, and W. E. Curtis, after which the young couple left for their home at Pine Tree.
There were many useful and beautiful presents, showing to some degree the high esteem in which the principals in this happy affair are held by many friends.
