CLARE C. PORTER TAKES BRIDE

A very pretty wedding occurred at the home of Mrs. Louise Brandt, of Morocco, on Thursday, November 6, at 4 o’clock when her youngest daughter, Mabel S., was united in marriage to Clare C. Porter. Miss Cora Hansen, niece of the bride, sang, “Because I Love You, Dear,” after which Miss Sophia Hansen played the wedding march. The Rev. E. F. Aldrich, of Terre Haute, performed the ring ceremony. After congratulations a delicious two-course dinner was served to the thirty relatives and friends who were present. The home was prettily decorated with gold and white. The bride was attired in white georgette and pearls over white satin and wore a corsage bouquet of white rosebuds. Mr. and Mrs. Porter are highly esteemed young people in the lodge and church circles of Morocco, where Mrs. Porter worked at the postoffice for five years, after which she entered the civil service at Rensselaer, remaining there until her resignation about a month ago. Mr. Porter returned to Morocco, in September after serving Uncle Sam sixteen months, twelve of which he spent in France. The happy young couple left Morocco the same evening for parts unknown. They expect to reside with the bride s mother for a time. —-Contributed.
