Bond, who was the president of the Fort Wayne National bank.The church and chancel were most beautifully adorned wish flowers and presented a lovely appearance. The chandeliers had wreaths of greens suspended from them. The division of seats reserved for specially invited guests and relatives were indicated by a double spray of smilx stretched from pew to pew, which was a very original idea and certainly a very pretty one.The front was filled by a magnificent pot of Indian fern, at the base of which was a band of flowers composed of china asters, hearts-ease, rose-buds, and other rare exotics. The alter railing was made to resemble a bank of snowy daises, and looked exquisite. There were numerous potted plants from Hon. F. P. Randall’s conservatory, shiof among which was a pair of paMs which formed a leafy arch at the entrance of the chancel. The whole of the decorations were superb, and was the entire work of the fair bridesmaids.A few moments past six, the lights were flashed into unusual brilliancy and Prof. Meyers, who presided at the organ, harmonized into the beautifu bridal chorus from Lohengrin.
