HYMENEAL
ELLIOTT-BROWN
A pretty home wedding took place on Thursday evening, August 28th, at
"Restholme", the residence of Mr. and Mrs. J. A. Brown, at Brownsville, when
their only daughter, Lettie Blanch, became the wife of Mr. W. A. Elliott.
The house was beautifully decorated with white asters, white sweet peas, and ferns, and the bridal party stood in front of a bank of asparagus ferns and golden rod and underneath a horse shoe of sweet peas while the ceremony was being performed. The Rev. C. F. Elliott, of Waterford, brother of the groom, officiated, while appropriate numbers were played very softly on the piano by Miss Louisa Brown, cousin of the bride. The bride looked very lovely in a gown of cream silk-de-chene trimmed with silk chiffon and appliqué, and wore a veil and orange blossoms.
After the ceremony a dainty dejeuner was served, the breakfast room being lighted with wax candles shaded with white and pink. After toasts to the bride and bridegroom and their parents Mr. and Mrs. Elliott left on a trip down the St. Lawrence. The bride's going away gown was of brown cloth with hat to match.
