Promptly at 2 o'clock the organist struck up the wedding march and the high contracting parties, placing themselves beneath a beautiful floral arch, were pronounced man and wife by Rev. Vandervert, in a brief, but appropriate ceremony, after which we surrounded a table richly loaded with the good things of this life, and handsomely decorated with flowers. This was the best part of the program - to us at least. Mr. Harry Ball is an industrious young man of good habits, and Miss Blanch (sic) Whitney is the talented organist at Pleasant View. We wish this young couple a happy and prosperous journey through life. The presents were as follows: Mr. W.E. Whitney, One milch cow. Mrs. W.E. Whitney, 25 yards of carpet. Mr. and Mrs. C.C.
