she received her diploma as a trained
nurse at the commencement exercises
of the Harrisburg training

daughter of John H. Coulter, a retired
merchant and contractor of Reedsviile,
Pa., became the bride of V. Grant

o'clock last evening and Miss Coulter
was one of the eight principals in the

high noon to-day at the residence of
the bride's sister, Mrs. B. B.
New Bloomfleld. Only the immediate
relatives attended.
The Rev. H. C. Knox, pastor of the
New Bloomfield Methodist Church,
performed the ceremony, assisted by
Rev. Edgar E. Snyder, pastor of
St. Matthew's* Lutheran Church, this
City, a brother-in-law of tho bride
groom. Following a wedding break
fast Mr. and Mrs. Forrer motored
back to Harrisburg, accompanied by
the Rev. Mr. and M S.srdenyrtaoia
