September 15, 1928 WINNETKA TALK 21 Margaret MacLean Becomes Bride of Charles E. Nail In the Wilmette Congregational church, softened by the light of many candles, with palms and ferns and two large baskets of Easter lilies in charming arrangement, Miss Margaret Barry MacLean, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John Albert Maclean of Wil- mette, became the bride of Charles Edwin Nail of Mansfield, Ohio, Wednesday evening, September 35.

The bride was in a period gown of ivory satin trimmed in D'Alencon lace, with a court train of satin. Her veil of cream tulle was held to her head with a cap of rosepoint lace that had been her great grandmother's and D'Alencon lace edged her train. She wore a necklace and pin of pearls that had belonged to her great grandmoth- er, and carried a bouquet of valley lilies, roses, and orchids.

Martin of Chicago, (Virginia Smith). They all carried arm bouquets of deep pink roses and deep blue delphinium. The matron of hon- or, Mrs. William Palmer Winslow (Virginia Beymer), wore a frock simi- lar to those of the bridesmaids, but of pale wood rose, and carried pale pink roses and pale blue delphinium.

J. served as best man, and Harvey Bush- nell and Ephriam Brown of Mansfield, William Palmer Winslow of Evanston, George A. MacLean, John A. Mac- Lean, Jr., Willard Casterline and Rob- ert Casterline of Wilmette, were ushers. Mr. Nail and his bride have motored to Bretton Woods, N. H., and from there will go on to New York.
