FIRTHâ€"GREENWOOD. _ I A very pretty wedding took place at the home of the bride at half past six on the eyeniug of December 25 when Mr. John Firth and Miss Helen Green- wood were united in the holy bonds of matrimony by the Rev. T. Colling, pastor of the Methodist church. The. bride was very becomingly attired in . a gown of white, and the groom looked 4 well in conventional black. Only the immediate friends were present. Fol-7 lowing the ceremony, the guests par? took of a smnptuous repast, and the presents which the happy couple re- ceived testified to the very high esteem in which they are held in the neighbor- hood where they ,will in the future reside. A few weeks ago we called the at- tention of our readers to the illness from typhoid of Mrs. J. H. ‘Villis who was in Dauphin, Man. Her mother Mrs. \Vm. Herd, of Allan Park, left here in order to be present with her and render what assistance she could. but just when Mrs. Willis was allowed to leave the hospital Mrs. Herd took typhoid also and was sent to the same hospital where she remained some time in a very critical condition. On hearing of his wife’s illness, Mr. Herd went West and remained there till Mrs. Herd recovered and both came home together about two weeks ago. Last week Mr. Herd was taken {down with pneumonia and passed away af- ter two days’ illness. Though we have known Mr. Herd for the past nine or ten years we have never had any in- timate personal acquaintance with him and can say very little from our own knowledge. Mr. Charter Smith who knew him since they were boys together describes’him as one of the best and most honorable residents not the county, 3 true man in every re- spect, a member of the Methodist onwhich other people would stat-vhf, ' and that hq has added farm after tam} ll ‘ Ca Mekth‘lr The young couple Were the reelpien ts of many costly 'and useful presents. After congratulations the guests par- took of a dainty wedding dinner, after which they drove to Flesherton taking the 5 p. in. train to Toronto, visiting Hamilton, Buffalo, \Valkerton and other places prior to their return. They take up their residence in the late A. Butters’ block, Priceville. \Ve join the many friends in extending our hearty congratulations to the happy couple wishing them a long and happy life on their journey together. DIXONâ€"MCAR’I‘HUR One of those happy events that occur once in a while took place at the resi- dence of Mr. and Mrs. John McArthur Merchant, Priceville, on Wednesday, the 10th Dec., at 2 o’clock p. m., when their only daughter, Miss Mary Ellen, was united in the holy bonds of matri- mony to Ivan Dixon. Esq., M. D., of Priceville, son of Thus. Dixon, Esq., Barrister, of \Valkerton. .The bride, who was beautifully attired in White silk, carrying a bouquet of carnations and white asters, entered the parlor leaning on the arm of her father, While Mendelssohn \Vedding march was played by Miss Marion Dixon, of \Valkerton. sister of the groom. Miss Olive E. Glassford, of Owen Sound. acted as bridesmaid. She was becom- ingly attired in white silk under point de chene and carried a bouquet of car- nations and white roses. Mr. Peter F. )IcArthur, brother or the bride, ably supported the groom. The cere- mony was performed by the Rev. J. A. Matheson, M. A. B. D., Priceville, in the presence of only intimate rela- tives of the contracting parties. Ayer's Pills greatly alaiho Cher Pectoral In breaking up a col . Because we make medicines for them.
