Seldom has it been our pleasure to attend a more beautiful wedding than that held a* Emmanuel church yesterday morning at I 1:00 o'clock, when Miss JKNMKS. MPRRY and MR. WM. ROBINSON were united in the holy bonds of wedlock. The church was filled with admiring friends of the contracting parties, and promptly at the hour Mrs. \V. 11. lloward played the Wedding March as the bridal parly entered the church and slowly marched up the. aisle, proceeded by two little (lower girls, Misses A1 fretta Ilae j kett and Marion .fudd, and Mr. Theo. N. King, of Williamsport, and Miss Maine Logan. Mr. Don M. Larrabee, and Miss Jennie Robinson, of Sinneinahoning, groomsmen and hridesmaids; Miss Edith Murry. maid of honor; bride leaning upon the arm of her brother, S. E. Murry. I'he bridal party was met in front of the floral gates by Rector Robertson and Mr. Bert Edwards, acting as best man for the groom. After a short pause the (lower girls threw open the gates ami permitted the bridal party to enter within the inclosure of the altar. The beautiful service, so familiar to our readers, was re cited and the questions and re sponses made in clear and distinct voices. It was a truly happy wedding and love and pleasure were de picted upon the faces of all present. The bride and groom, accompanied by the invited guests, immediately repaired to the residence of the bride's parents, Mr. and Mrs. David Murry, where elaborate refresh ments had been prepared. All was merriment until Buffalo mail, when Mr. and Mrs. Robinson departed for Niagara Falls and other points to pass the honeymoon. Before departure the friends of the happy couple were particular to see that their baggage was properly decor ated with the regulation ribbons, old shoes, proper directions, etc.— an important precaution never neglected on such occasions. Emmanuel church never looked handsomer and the rare flowers and ferns in great profusion filled the church with sweet fragrance and added greatly to the beauty of the occasion. The bridal colors were pink and white. The groom is an excellent gentle man and is employed in C. I>. 11 oward <S: Co. 's office, at this place. The bride is a lovely lady and greatly respected by our citizens. Both are energetic workers in the Emmanuel church. The PRESS joins in wishing Mr. , and Mrs. Robinson much happi ness and a long and joyous voyage I through the troublesome waters of ! life. Big Time at Sterling.
