Not only is this the rnenth of roses but also the naonth for weddings as is manifested in this township, as one by one our young ladies are carried away to grace the homes in our neighboring towns. On Wednesday one of these interesting events took place at the commodious home of yr. and Mrs. James Gorvett, when their estimable daughter, Miss Etta May; became the happy bride of Mr. Harry reuglas Shaler, of St. Marys. Only a few near relatives and friends of the contracting parties were present at the ceremony which was performed by the Rev. Mr. Coopor, of Elimville. The happy coup- le were attended by Miss Bina and Mr. Gorvett, sister and brother of the bride. The bride and bridesmaid were attired in very dainty costumes. At the conclusion of the ceremony, which took place at 5 o'clock, tea was served in the dining room and. it was a happy crowd that sat down to the well laden table. Tea over, the bride donned a handsome travelling suit, which was of perfect neatness, and the young couple left for St. Marys, where they took the train, for Toronto to spend their honeymoon. On their return they will reside in St. Marys. The numerous, handsome and costly pres- ents received by the fair young bride mark in a high degree the warm place she holds in the affections of her num- erous friends. We are only yoicing the sentiments of all when we say that we wish them a pleasant sail over the matrimonial sea and may they always 'find life pleasing and prosperous. Brinsley.
