Davis – Balfour |
BALFOUR - DAVIS - A very pretty wedding
took place Wednesday morning, June 14th, at 11 o’clock at the farm
residence of Samuel Balfour, west of Hannah, when Miss Maud Balfour, daughter
of Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Balfour, was united in marriage to Mr. Fred. R. Davis,
eldest son of the late M.V. Davis, of Adolphustown. The ceremony was conducted by Rev. M.
Irwine, of Osnabrock. The parlor,
where the ceremony took place was profusely decorated with lilacs and potted plants
and made an impressive picture as the young couple took the solemn vow. After the ceremony a veritable wedding
banquet was partaken of, the guests present being the immediate relatives of
the contracting parties. The estheable
young bride needs no introduction as she has resided in this vicinity since
girlhood, and is beloved by all for her kind disposition and rare womanly
qualities. The groom is well and favorably known as an industrious and
progressive young man and has the esteem of all. Many and valuable presents testify to the popularity
of the bride and groom. They left via
the Great Northern for a sojourn at Winnipeg, after which they will be at
home on their farm near the new end town.
Tho’ the day was cloudy we noticed that each cloud had its silver
lining, and with the ample supply of rice distributed at the depot, we feel
safe in predicting for their matrimonial bark, so auspiciously launched, a
safe and storm-free voyage.
Congratulations. - Hannah, North Dakota, Press
