Page 1At High Noon In the presence of family relatives only, there were celebrated this noon the nuptials of Miss Mary A. Sherwood of Southport and Mr. G. M. Lamberton of Lincoln, Nebraska. The marriage took place at the residence of the bride's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Edwin H. Sherwood, which had been tastefully decorated for the occasion. As the hour appointed was struck, the bridal party entered the handsome double parlors, and, to the measured cadences of the wedding march, passed on to the bower at the further end. Upon a dais covered with white the couple took their places, with evergreen and palms back of and above them, while the words of the solemn Episcopal marriage service were pronounced The officiating clergyman was Rev. Charles E. Linsley of New Rochelle, who was assisted by Rev J. Brinckerhoff of New York, and Rev. W. H. Holman of Southport. The bride was charmingly attired in a gown of white mull rimmed with lace, and wore a magnificent crescent of diamonds, the gift of the groom. In her hand she bore a bouquet of fragrant lilies-of-the-valley The maid of honor was Miss Antoinette Sherwood, sister of the bride, attired in yellow silk. Attending here were Miss Emma Sherwood in Nile green trimmed with old gold, and Mrs. La Veille of New York, a sister of the groom, in black moire; Mrs. S. C. Sherwood, in white, with trimmings of old rose and Nile green. The groom was attended by his best man, Edwin H. Sherwood jr, while the ushers were Earle Marvin of Yale, S. Wakeman Sherwood and Linsley C. Sherwood of Southport. A wedding breakfast was served immediately after the ceremony, the tables being decked with green and lit by the soft glow of waxen candles. The bride's loaf, which was cut by the bride's own hands, was served to the guests by Master Richard Sherwood. At 2.37, Mr. and Mrs. Lamberton left for an extended wedding tour, at the conclusion of which they will take up their residence in Lincoln. Decorations at the wedding were by Horn, and Lane was the caterer. | Page 1 |
