The Sister Objected to Wedding.

Squire Buruham had an experience at a wedding performed by him at the clerk’s office last Wednesday, March 12, which somewhat jarred his composure. The parses were Chas. T. Harris, of Remington son of John G. Harris, the saloonist, of that town, and Miss Laura B. Glosser, daughter of Joseph Glosser, of Milroy tp. A sister of Mr. Harris was in the party, and either because she was affected at losing her brother iu the sea of matrimony, or because, after the way of many sisters, she thought she could have chosen him a more fitting bride, she was. quite disposed to make a scene She boo-booed during the preliminary stages of the ceremony, and when the squire propounded the question to the groom, if he had ever been married before, his sister chipped in “No, and he oughtn’t to be this time.” And when the fatal moment came, and the Squire directed the marrying couple to stand up apd clasp hands, the dissatisfied sister refused to stay longer to see her brother sacrificed, and rushed out of the room and went and sat on The steps of the court House, and proceeded to weep vigorously and long.
