The ceremony was performed
at the residence of the bride's par

o'clock Sunday afternoon , in the
presence of relatives of both bride
and groom. The groom's father ,
mother , sister and nephew , from
Chadron , were present.
The bride was attired in a loveTy
gown of a pale lavender colored
silk. The groom wore the con
ventional suit of black.
Immediately after the ceremony
the guests sat down to a bountiful
supper. The table was loaded
with good things. The cakes pre
pared by the bride were especially
attractive and delicious. The
beautiful gifts from relatives and
friends were too numerous to
mention , many being sent from a
distance.
The groom resides on a fine
ranch near town. The happy
couple started out that evening ,
amid a shower of old shoes , to the
\ elegantly furnished home awaiting
them.
Both bride and groom are well
