Among the several nuptial affairs of Wednesday evening none was more beautiful nor more impressive than the wedding of Doyle J. Dixon and Miss Mabel, Ingels, which took place at the home of the bride’s parents, A. B. and Mrs. Ingels, southeast of the city. The pleasant and commodious country home was aglow with roses and plants and in one comer of the parlor a bowrer of palms was arranged for the ceremony. At halfpast eight o’clock with Miss Marie Shenk at the piano and Miss Ruth Moon playing the violin, Mrs. George Raymond Eckert sang “O Promise Me,” and at the close of the song pianist and violinist took up the strains of the Mendelssohn wedding march. As Mr. Dixon and his bride entered the parlor they were attended by the bride’s twin sister, Miss Mazie, and the bridegroom’s brother, Walter Dixon. Mar'y and Sarah McReynolds strewed the path of the bridal pair with flowers and Mary Helen Tresslar of Flint, Michigan, served as ring bearer while the little nieces of the bridegroom cut the ribbons that had enclosed the bower where the ceremony took place. The charming children in the pretty frocks added much to the prettiness of the scene. The marriage ceremony was conducted by the Rev. C. W. Choate, pastor of the Congregational church, and as the bride and bridegroom repeated their vows the musicians played softly “To a Wild Rose.” The bride wore a beautiful gown of lace and chiffon over brocaded messaline and a filmy white veil and carried white roses. The maid of honor was dressed in a gown of overlace over pink. About one hundred relatives and friends were present and extended their good wishes to the couple after which a wedding supper was served. Mr. Dixon is a son of B. F. and Mrs. Dixon of near Center and is well known here where he graduated from the local high school. For sometime he was a clerk in the Kokomo postoffice but for more than a year he has been located in the postoffice at Jacksonville, Florida. He is in every way a worthy and capable young man. His bride is a charming young woman, one gifted with a sweet voice that has been much admired. While fully approving of the match the friends of the bride will be truly sorry that she is to go so far away from all her old friends. Mr. and Mrs. Dixon will go on a honeymoon trip of about two weeks before going to Jacksonville for residence. Among the guests from a distance at the wedding were Mrs. Guy Tresslar of Flint, Michigan, and Miss Madge Dimmitt of Indianapolis.♦ *
