Wedding Bells From Porter County.

Chesterton Tribune: The marriage of Miss Eva Christine, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Lundberg, and Mr- Hallard A. Flynn, was solemnized at the home of the bride’s parents Wednesday afternoon June 24, at 2:80 o’olook. When the guests had arrived Mrs. H. R. Wood sang a solo, which received with much appreciation by the guests. At the appointed time Miss Swanson played the Mendelsohn wedding marob. The bride and groom entered, unattended, to a plaoe arranged for them under a floral aroh, and Rev. A. L. Umpleby pronounced the words whioh made them man and wife. After the oeremony a dainty lunoheon was served to the guests. Only relatives and immediate friends of the bride and groom were present. Among those in attendance from out of town were: Mr. and Mrs. Flynn, father and mother of the groom; Mr. and Mrs. Ray Wood and daughter, of Rensselaer. The bride’s gown was of white silk and chiffon and she carried a boquet of bride’s roses. The deooratious were festoons of ferns and carnations. The couple received a large number of handsome presents from their friends. Mr. and Mrs. Flynn > avoided the usual rioe and old shoe shower by giving the company the slip and driving to Valparaiso to take the train. The deception was soon discovered and several of the company overtook them and it is safe to say that they received the proper send-off. Mr. and Mrs. Flynn will be gone several weeks, and will then return to Chesterton to reside.
