Kreim-Taylor

Wednesday evening the elegantly appointed rooms of Mr. and Mrs. J. F. Clement were the scene of a joyous event, it being the marriage of Mr. Henry Kreim Jr., a prominent young hardware merchant of this city to Miss Marie Taylor, a sister of the hostess. The wedding was a quiet one, only the more intimate friends and relatives of the contracting parties being present. The couple looked very happy as they took the vows which made the one, both being quite below medium height. Rev. James Trimble performed the ceremony, the beautiful Episcopal service being used. After the service the couple sat down to an elegant wedding supper, provided by the hostess. A large array of elegant and useful presents were inspected by the guests, and it was not until a late hour that the guests departed.

Mr. and Mrs. Kreim did not go off on a wedding trip, but directly to their house on Second Street, where Mrs. Kreim had everything ready to go to house-keeping. The lamps were lighted, a bright fire burning, and the interior of the hose was as cheerful as the little bride herself.

A large circle of warm friends throw the traditional shoe at the worthy couple, and wish them joy.
