A New Year Wedding.
On New Year's evening at the home of the bride's parents in this
city, occurred the plighting of two hearts in the holy bonds of
matrimony. The contracting parties were Allen J. HARRIS, son of
Mr. and Mrs. J. B. HARRIS, to Miss Lucy M. MILL, eldest daughter
of Mr. and Mrs. Jas. I. MILL, of this city. Promptly at 4 o'clock
the hour set, while Miss Emma MERKLEY presided at the organ,
executing the wedding march, the contraction parties entered the
room, supported by Miss Lois WADDELL as maid of honor and Mr.
L.J. McLAUGHLIN as best man, taking their place in one corner of
the room which had been tastily draped and decorated, when Rev.
J.T. LEE their pastor, pronounced the ceremony of the Methodist
Episcopal church which united this happy couple and made them
husband and wife. After congratulations of relatives and friends
came the wedding supper which had been thoughtfully and carefully
prepared. The bride is one of the popular young ladies of
Schaller, refined in every sense of the word. The groom is an
industrious young man and held in high esteem, and for the past
year has been in the employ of the Inter State Elevator Co. It is
the intention of the young folks to go to housekeeping on the
JONES farm just west of the city, in the spring. There was a
large gathering of relatives and friend to witness the ceremony,
and Mr. and Mrs. HARRIS were the recipients of a large number of
wedding presents both useful and ornamental. The Herald is
glad to extend congratulations to so worthy a couple, and would
wish for them a life full of peace and pleasantness, with the
greatest degree of success possible.
