Hartley Redding A Pretty Home Affair.

One of our prettiest and most popular young ladies was married Wednesday when Miss Anna Roselma Hartley, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Harry E. Hartley, became the bride of Dr. Gerald Dorris Strong, a dentist of Homer, Mich. It was a pretty home wedding and was attended only by the immediate families and a very few friends. The house decorations consisted of French flower baskets filled with pink and white flowers and smilax and the itinmg room was decorated with white roses and smilax and lighted with pink candles. (Miss Hartley wore a dress, of pink taffeta with an overdress of white net and a corsage bouquet of white roses and lillies of the valley. The ceremony was pronounced by Dr. Paul C. Curaick, of Trinity M. E. church. The bride’s traveling suit was of dark navy ‘blue with a black and white picture hat.

Following the ceremony a wedding dinner was served and Dr. and Mrs. Strong left on the 2:51 train for Chicago and will go from there to Detroit and Niagara Falls on a weddifig trip and then return to Ann Arbor, where Dr. Strong wijl be an assistant instructor in the dental school of the University of Michigan from which he graduated with high honors in June. After one year in this work he will engage in practice, but has not yet decided on a location. They will at once begin housekeeping at Ann Arbor, where a nicely furnished 5room cottage awaits them. Friends at the station, largely members of the Girls’ Sew Club, gave them a rice shower as they departed. The out-of-town guests at the wedding were Mr. and Mrs. D. Strong, father and mother of the groom, of Homer, Mkh.; Mrs. C. A. Wood, grandmother of the bride, of Kentland; and Miss Myra Peck, of Remington.
