PRETTY WEDDING. -A very happy
event took place at the home of Mr.
George Alair, of this township, on
Wednesday evening, when his second
daughter, Miss Mary Louise became
the happy bride of Mr. Allan 'Webber,
an employe of the C.P.R., of London,
and eldest son of Mr. Wm. Webber, of
Hensall. At 7.30 o'clock the bride en-
tered the parlor looking the picture of
lovliness, she being handsomely gown-
ed in a suit of white, and took her
place beside the groom. The interest-
ing ceremony was performed by the
Rev. Mr. Shaw, of Hensall. Miss Jes-
sie Alair, sister of the bride, was also
becotningly attired, and withMr.
Jinks ably supported the happy couple
through the trymg ordeal. The cere-
mony being over, the blushing bride
duly kissed and the bridal couple hear-
tily congratulated, the company re-
paired to the dining room where a
sumptuous repast was served. The
remainder of the evening was very
pleasantly spent in music, social inter-
course and games. To gaze at the
ma,,enificent array of presents one could
netbelp but come to the conclusion
that the bride numbered her friends
as. many. After a few days' visit with
friends and relatives here Mr. adMrs.
Webber left for their future home in
London. We heartily unite with their
many friends in wishing them long
and continued happiness through life.
