The Chariton Leader, Chariton, Iowa
Thursday, June 27, 1907

On Tuesday morning, June 25th, at 8:30 o'clock, occurred the wedding of MISS
ADDA L. MANNING, of this city, to CHARLES G. SHANE, of Lawton, Okla., at the
home of the bride, Rev. Evans, of the First Methodist Church, performing the
ceremony in the presence of one hundred and twenty-five guests. To the
strains of Mendelssohn's wedding march, executed by Mrs. Nellie Allen, of
LaGrange, the bride and groom took their places in the bay window of the
south parlor beneath a horseshoe of evergreens and white roses, with a white
and green background, where the words were spoken which made them man and
wife. Mr. Frank Manning, brother of the bride, was best man, and Miss Cleo
Bryan, of St. Joseph, Mo., Bridesmaid. Just preceding the ceremony Mrs.
Frank Engebretsen sang, "I Love You Truly," and during congratulations Miss
Cleo Bryan played a cello solo, "Melodies of Love." The bride looked her
best in a dress of white Persian lawn, trimmed in maltese lace and
Brazillian point bertha, and carried a shower bouquet of bride's roses. Her
traveling suit was brown silk panama, with hat and gloves to match. She is
an accomplished and refined young lady, a graduate of the Chariton High
School in the class of '97. She is a member of the Yadirf Club and is
prominent in society circles, where she will be greatly missed. She has
been teaching in the city schools for the past six years, four years in
eighth grade work, and the last two in the high school, and declined the
position the coming year, to take up a school of her own. The groom is a
man of sterling worth and integrity, is a prosperous real estate agent in
the city of Lawton, and is connected with the Belamy Real Estate firm. The
bridesmaid's dress was white Swiss with yellow sash and gloves, and carried
a bouquet of marguerites. After congratulations had been extended the happy
couple, an elegant breakfast was served. MR. and MRS. SHANE left on the
morning train for a visit with friends in Kansas City and Oklahoma City,
after which they will be at home to their many friends in Lawton, Okla.

The leader joins their many friends in wishing them a happy and prosperous
life. The out of town guests were Mrs. Rebecca Rhoads, of Mt. Ayr, Henry
McPherson, of Illinois City, and Cleo Bryan, of St. Joseph, Mo.
