The ceremony was performed by the Rev. Father Edge. The bride looked charming in an Empire gown of crepe de chine, with the- customary wreath and veil. She wore a handsome diamond and amethyst bracelet, the gift of the bridegroom, and carried a beautiful ivory prayer book, the gift of the bridegroom's mother. The bride, who was given away by her father, was attended by Miss Flossie Patterson (sister) and Miss Mary Sullivan (sister of the bridegroom), who wore gold brooches, the gifts of the bridegroom.
