HENKLE-DOWLER.

A very pleasant, social 'event occurred at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Dowler, on Scott street, last Wednesday evening, it being the marriage of their daughter, Miss Harriet, to L. Wesley Henkle, of Williamsport. At eight o’clock the groom and bride entered the spacious parlors, where were assembled about 75 relatives and close friends of the family, and in the presence of this large congregation, they were united in marriage by the Rev. H. M. Middleton, of the Trinty M, E. church. The bridal party was led by little Hazel Hopkins and Maud Robinson, Mr. Frank Wood acting as groomsman and Miss Mable Wood as bridesmaid. The groom is well and favorably known to our people, having resided here most of his life, while the bride is one of Rensselaer’s most promising young ladies. The young couple w ill leave for Williamsport to-day, where the groom is engaged in the dairy business. They will begin housekeeping at once. The best wishes of hosts of friends will follow them. The wedding presents were quite numerous.
