• Notes

  A very pretty September wedding was solemnized on Wednesday the 18th inst., at Hillside cottage, the home of Mr. and Mrs. August Ahrens, where their daughter, Sadie Alberta, was married to Mr. Aaron Schweitzer, of Berlin. A little after two o'clock the Bridal party entered the drawing room to the strains of the wedding march rendered by Miss Lottie Urbach. The ceremony was performed by the Rev. G.D. Damm, of Berlin, assisted by Rev. W.W. Usher, of Linwood, under a bell in the bay window which was decorated with ever greens. The charming young bride was given away by her father and was unattended. She was prettily gowned in cream silk eolienne, long veil and carried a bouquet of flowers. Two little girls, relatives of the grooms, dressed in pink silk, acted as flower girls and ribbon bearer. After the service Miss Jean McAllister, sang a beautiful solo. The congratulations being offered, the guests, numbering one hundred partook of a dainty luncheon, which was served on the lawn. The groom's gift to the bride was a pearl crescent. The happy couple left on the evening train, amid showers of rice and good wishes, for a trip to Southampton, Owen Sound and other places. The bride wore a travelling suit of grey with pale blue silk blouse and hat to match. The presents which were numerous and costly show the esteem in which the bride and groom are held.
