The Monastery church was the scene of a pretty wedding this morning. The interested parties were Miss Katherine Connolly, daughter of Patrick Connolly and Mr. William Hartsock. The sacred edifice was well filled with the relatives and friends of the families who are among the most prominent in this part of the country. The marriage ceremony was performed by Rev. Father David who also celebrated the nuptial mass. The bride wore a gown of white batiste and carried a bouquet of white roses.

Mr. Hartsock is to be congratulated on winning for a life’s companion so charming a helpmate. In her home circle she is pretty beloved and by those who enjoy her friendship she is especially esteemed. A reception followed the ceremony at the home of the bride’s parents where a sumptuous wedding breakfast was partaken of by the guests. A number from this city were present at the nuptials. Mr. and Mrs. Hartsock will go to housekeeping on a farm near the Monastery.
