      Dexter, Sept. 19--A very pleasant event occurred at the hospitable home of Mr. and Mrs. Madison Bonney, near Brownville, this afternoon when their daughter, Florence M., was united in the holy bond of matrimony to Alton T.

      The residence was beautifully decorated with potted plants and evergreens. Miss Grace Harris, of Champion, an intimate friend of the bride, was in charge of the arrangements. J.B. Foster was best man and Miss Mabel Bonney, bridesmaid. Promptly at 2:30 the bridal party descended the stairway to the impressive strains of Mendelssohn's wedding march, rendered by Mrs. Uriel Diefendorf and took their places in the parlor under a beautiful floral weeing arch where the solemn and tender ring service was performed by Rev. R.B. Gibbs, of Watertown.

      Congratulations over, a beautiful wedding dinner was served, Misses Lena and Nellie Pratt, Julia Moffatt, Lucy Reeves, Ethel Dean and Grace Bonney acting as waiters. The happy couple then departed for East Broomfield, N.Y., follwed by the rice, blessings and good wishes of all. They will be the guests of Rev. and Mrs. B.B. Fairchild during the coming week.

      The bride was beautifully attired in cream mousselene-de-soie over white taffeta silk and carried white roses. The bridesmaid wore white organdie with pink carnations. They were the recipients of many tokens of the love and esteem in which they are held.
