LEMANN - LANDRY

A wedding that united two of Donaldsonville's most prominent and popular young 
people was performed Wednesday, when Rev. Joseph Marie pronounced the impressive 
words that joined in matrimony Arthur Lemann and Miss Lee Landry. The ceremony 
was solemnized at 12:30 p. m. at the home of the bride's parents, Mr. and Mrs. 
Fred. Landry, which was most beautifully decorated for the occasion with a 
profusion of cut flowers, pot plants and evergreens. A number of relatives and 
immediate friends were present, including many guests from New Orleans and other 
places. The charming bride was given away by her father, and had as her sole 
attendant her sister, Miss Maude Landry. Monte M. Lemann, of New Orleans, was 
the groom's best man. A delightful reception followed the ceremony, when 
congratulations and good wishes were showered upon the newly-mated pair, and 
their future happiness and prosperity pledged in numerous bumpers of sparkling 
wine. The young couple left via the steamer Virgie and Mississippi Valley route 
at 2:10 p. m. for New Orleans, from whence they departed for an extended 
honeymoon trip to Washington, New York city, Cincinnati and other places. Upon 
their return they will make their home on Palo Alto plantation.

The groom is a member of the Lemann Co., Ltd., who are among the largest land 
owners and sugar manufacturers in this section of the state, and has charge of 
the plantations of that concern situated on the west bank of Bayou Lafourche in 
this parish. he is a young man of admirable habits and exceptional ability, from 
whom great things are confidently expected by his host of friends, whose circle 
is limited only by the extent of his acquaintance.

The bride is a prepossessing and accomplished young woman, and is thoroughly 
qualified in every respect to assume her new duties in life according to the 
highest and best standards. She is very popular in local social circles, and all 
who know her admire and esteem her for her many lovable traits of character and 
charms of person.

As a testimonial of the popularity of Mr. and Mrs. Lemann, a profusion of 
handsome presents in cut-glass, silver and other costly wares was tendered them 
by fond relatives and admiring friends.

Our best wishes are extended the happy pair, with the sincere hope that their 
married life will be one eternal measure of blissful contentment and prosperity, 
growing ever sweeter with the cycle of the years.
