PRETTY HOME WEDDING
 
A very beautiful wedding took place last Sunday evening at five o'clock at the 
home of Mrs. Hattie Shafer on North Sixth Street when Mildred Opal Nichols, 
one of Payette's most charming young ladies, became the bride of Mr. Harold 
Hewitt of Salem, Oregon.  The ceremony was pronounced by Rev. A. E. Houser, 
pastor of the Church of God.  There were 35 relatives and near friends of the 
bride and groom present to witness the uniting of this worth couple.  The 
bride was dressed in white Georgette Crepe over white satin, trimmed in steel 
beads and carried a bouquet of roses.
 
The decorations of white and pink gave the room a beautiful appearance.  
Immediately after the ceremony a most bountiful wedding dinner was served by 
Mrs. Shafer.  The center piece was of white and pink carnations.  The wedding 
cake was a very elaborate affair -- the ingenious work of Frank Walters, 
proprietor of the City Bakery.
 
The bride is the eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. T. J. Jackson of North 
Payette, and to give due eulogy of the real worth of this esteemed young lady 
is just a little beyond the ability of a common newspaper editor.  She has 
lived in this community since childhood and her sweet disposition and charming 
ways has won for her, favor among all.
 
The groom is one of Salem, Oregon's thrifty young ranchers. He is a stranger 
in this community but we have all reason to believe he is one of Salem's best 
young men.
 
The happy couple were the recipients of many beautiful wedding presents to 
keep in memory the occasion of December 12, 1920.
 
Everything passed off lovely during the evening of pleasure, until the guests 
were retiring for their homes, when the bride was called to the door on the 
pretence of a farewell adieu but was forcibly kidnapped, loaded into an auto 
leaving the groom to walk the floor between naps on the couch until four 
o'clock in the morning when she was returned, a little weary but apparently 
enjoying the joke.
 
Mr. and Mrs. Hewitt will remain here with relatives and friends until after 
the holidays when they will depart for their home at Salem.  The best wishes 
of a host of friends will go with them.
