E. retu Blume, on Thursday morning, and was wit- him nessed by only the immediate relatives and tow friends of the bride and groom. In the eve- com ning the bride held a reception at the resi-1 of flt; dence of her parents, and accepted the good muc wishes of her host of friends and admirers if ti upon her entrance into the marriage state, cool The fair bride is about seventeen years of dim age, and has long been regarded as one of: ‘bow the most attractive maidens in Nasewaupee. | rouj She was born in this county, and during her girlhood has won to herself a circle ol sincere and doYoted friends'of whose regard she may well be proud. The groom is an intelligent and industrious young gentleman wno came from Racine about threeyears ago, since which removal he has im- fiehproved a tract of land not far from the resi-idence of Mr. Simon, and will in good time have one of the best farms in the townshipof Nasewaupee. • :The high esteem in which the bride and groom are held was shown by the number j pec of presents they received. Excellent taste ma1 was displayed in the selection of these gifts, B most of them being of a character to be of ly c daily service to the pair in the new life up- Sco on which they have entered. . hillThe spacious farmhouse' of Mr. Simon the was so entirely filled with visitors that for Tin many there was standing room* only. All low were made as comfortable as possible,- but J thu it was not to be , expected that upward of der 3 | three hundred people would be provided for- cull on such short notice in a house that ordina- had rily contains only about a dozen persons, pec Everybody accepted the situation with conn : ll inendable cheerfulness, and the liouse was h J bee scene of merriment ^fro'm ’the afternoon to4 the the ensuing morning; - r \r J whThe marriage feast was. prepared under ha\ the direction of Mrs. J. P. Simon and her cou daughter Mrs; James Keogh, jr., and its va-J ces: s I ricty, extent, and excellence were the sub-'I tioi a | ject of universal comment. The hostess and Ale her assistant received a shower of well-de- boa 11 served compliments from their appreciative, of t guests who affirmed their sincerity by such inflt; a determined and prolonged attack upon the | tlio commissary department as threatened to exhaust the resources of the larder. This, however, was impossible, for although the j rj tables were re-laid until three hundred and est e I thirty huugry visitors were satisfied, there tow o j was left on baud a supply sufficient to en- p]a e I tertain an equal number if it had been nec- Cer ° * essary. chiDancing began at an early hour, the wel- the come sound of Charles Dickinson’s violin bri causing the floor to bo cleared so as to ac- thi commodate several sets, and this feature of ha] the entertainment was prolonged until al- tioi most daylight on the following morning. gat The entire surrounding country was rep-1 we resented in the assemblage.
