MERRILL: (From the Record)

Albert Epling and Miss Elizabeth Albright were married at 3 o’clock
yesterday afternoon at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Hiram Greenwood, in Liberty
township, Rev. A. J. Barkley, pastor of the Merrill Methodist church
officiating. Promptly at the appointed time, Miss M. B. Fletcher, of
Merrill, seated at the piano began playing a beautiful wedding march and the
bridal procession entered the capacious parlor. The bride was attended by
her sister, Miss Margarette Albright and the groom by his brother, Will
Epling. Standing beneath a bower of beautiful flowers, the happy young
people took the sacred marriage vows and were pronounced man and wife.
Shortly after the ceremony and congratulations, a wedding supper was served
by Miss Tillie Ruedy, Miss Mable Lindsey and Miss Lillian Dennler. The color
scheme in the dining room and parlor were blue and white and the exquisite
taste displayed the elaborate decorations showed the colors were well
chosen. The principals in this beautiful home wedding are too well know in
the community to need an introduction through these columns. They are
members of highly respected central Plymouth county families and are popular
in a wide circle of our best people. They will forego the usual wedding trip
for the present and will take up the duties of housekeeping at once. Mr.
Epling has rented his father’s farm for next year. The elder Mr. Epling has
purchased a fine home in Merrill and will move here soon.
