"A wedding of interest to this community was that of Miss Alice Whetstone, daughter of Mr. and Mrs Chas. H. Whetstone to Mr. Marion R.

Just preceding the ceremony, Miss Alberta Cochrane of Williamsburg sang "I Love You Truly." As the brideal party entered the room, Miss Louise Cochran, also of Williamsburg played Mendelssohn's Wedding March. The Rev. R. R. Mosher of the Casey Methodist church performed the ring ceremony in front of an altar of mock orange blossoms. Miss Ester Whetstone, sister of the bride, was maid of honor and Mr. Maurice Soults, twin brother of the bride groom servedf as best man.

The bride wore a gown of white satin and lace with a tiny cap of lace and a tulle veil and carried a shower bouquet of white roses. The maid of honor's dress was of peach mousselin de soie with a hat to match and a bouquet of peach roses and snapdragons.
