THE COURIER.
IN SOCIETY.
Admirably suited for a brilliant June
wedding tu Wednesday. The day was
cool and all the conditions were propi
tious. The wedding of Mr. John T. Dor
gan Hnd Miss Jeanette Wilson had been
looked forward to with much inteiest on
account of the prominence of the con
tracting parties. Mr. Dorgan has for
seme years held an important place in
society and is one of the most prosper
ous young business men in the city.
Miss Wilson is a highly accomplished
and attractive young lady, whose fam
ily connections are among the most
respected people in Lincoln. The young
people hare been actively identified
with society and their popularity was
attested by the large attendance. The
ceremony was performed in the Church
of ".he Holy Trinity, and was particu
larly effective. As the strains of the
wedding march sounded Lieut Pershing
made his appearance at the head of the
bridal procession, entering the church
from the west door. Then came the
bridal party in the following order:
Mr. Otto Mohienstecher, Mr. George J.
Woods, Mr. Herbert Marsland, of Bel
mont, Cal., Mr W. D. Robinson, Miss
Grace Oakley, and Miss Lucy Griffith,
Miss Marie Hoover and Miss Rose Car
son, Mr. Sam E. Low and Mr. R. M.
Joyce, Mr. Mattson Baldwin and Dr.
White, Miss Mane Marshall and Miss
Maud Oakley, Miss Olive Latta, and
Miss Mame Carson, Mr. C. P. A. Clough
and Dr. C. E. Spahr, Mr. Frank C.
Zebrung, Mrs. Otto Mohrenstecher and
and Mrs. W. D. RobinBon, Mrs. Herbert
Marsland and Mrs. George Woods.
Following these came the maid of honor
Miss Jennie McFarland, preceding the
bride, who walked by the side of her
grandfather, the Honorable Amasa
Cobb. Miss Wilson's gown was notably
beautiful. It was of heavy white
duchesse satin with long train, long
sleeves, cut high in the neck and elabor
ately trimmed with point lace. She
wore a long veil and carried a large bc
quet of white roses. There has been no
more beautiful or striking wedding
gown worn in Lincoln. The brides
maids were charming in thin summer
dresses of elaborate and varying design.
Pink and white predominated. The
maid of honor wore a simple white
Swiss gown. Mesdames Robinson,
Woods, Marsland and Mohrenstecher
wore their wedding gowns. Mr. Dorgan
and his best man, Mr. Amasa Wilson, of
Denver, entered from the east, coming
from the rector's study, and joined the
bridal party at the steps to the choir in
the nave, where the ceremony of betro
thal was celebrated according to the
beautiful custom of the Episcopal
church, the rector, Rev. John Hewett,
performing the ceremony. General
Cobb gave the bride away. The brides
maids and ushers were stationed on
either side of the choir, the remainder
cf the party occupying the usual posi
tion facing the sanctuary north. The be
trothal consummated Mr. Dorgan with
Miss Wilson's hand in hi. where it had
been placed by the rector, led his bride
past the ushers and bridesmaids into
the sanctuary and before the altar where
the veil was removed. Mr. Hewitt
standing at the chancel rail pronounced
them man and wife. Seldom has the
marriage ceremony of the church been
so impressively rendered. The process
ion left the church in the usual order.
Mr. and Mrs. Dorgan radiantly happy.
After the ceremony there was a recept
ion at the residence of General and Mrs.
Cobb. 335 North Fourteenth street, to
which the intimate friends of the bride
and groom were bidden. It was a gay
and fashionable assemblage, the happy

more than a hundred of their friends.
The display of wedding gifts shown at

admired. Mr. and Mrs. Dorgan left for

weeks on their wedding tour. On their
