The wedding was a big surprise and all were fooled until the last few minutes when they saw it was a bonafide affair.
Announcement was made in last week's paper that this couple would be married in the near future but none expected it at this time until Rev. Hollinshead started the ceremony then they realized it was in earnest.
Some handsome gifts were received by the bride and groom. The committee in charge for the evening were Mrs. Fiddler, Mrs. Bert Dennis, Mrs. Wm. Bentley and Mrs. Cotters, Mrs. Olive Cline, Mrs. Wm. Redhead.
After the wedding Bert Dennis played Santa Claus and distributed gifts to each. The decorations were very artistic and colorful artificial flowers of different kinds were the work of Mrs. W. F. Bentley.
Mrs. Roy McCoy, president of the P. T. A., announced that supper would be served and the men were to buy lunch boxes for their partners for (illeg), which caused a great deal of amusement. |
