WILLIAMS-DAVIDSON.

Miss Margaret Davidson, daughter of Mrs Susan C. Davidson, of this city, and Mr. George Anderson Williams, of Rensselaer, Indiana, were married at high noon at the home of the bride’s mother, Thursday, July 20th. The wedding day had been set for early fall but the critical illness of the bride’s mother decided the young couple to have the ceremony without delay. The wedding arrangements were simple and informal, the ceremony being witnessed by members of the family only. Rev. Dr. J. M. D. Davidson, of Chicago, officiated, assisted by Rev. P. G. Davidson, of Omaha, Neb., the marriage service being followed by nuptial eucharist, in which the mother was able to join and later give them her blessing. The bride was given away by her brother, Mr. Gay Davidson, of Quincy, and was attended by her sister Miss Mary Davidson, Mr. William H. Davidson, of Burlington, acting as attendant for the groom. The ceremony was followed by the wedding breakfast. The bride, as a daughter of Carthage, is well known. For the past several years she has been teaching music and drawing in public schools elsewhere, the last two years being spent at Rensselaer, Indiana. Under the try-

ing circumstances under which the marriage took place we are sure tbe bride has the loving sympathy and best wishes of the many friends whom she had hoped to have about her on this occasion. The groom is a popular and successful attorney of Rensselaer and is a noble young man. Mr. and Mrs. Williams will be at home in Rensselaer after Oct. Ist. —Carthage (Ill.) Republican, The many Rensselaer friends of the bride and groom extend hearty congratulations.
