THE VERMONTVILLE ECHO
February 28, 1906
CAMPBELL-BECK WEDDING
        Last Thursday evening about fifty friends and relatives gathered at the
home of Mr. and Mrs Nathaniel Campbell to witness the ceremony which joined
together the lives of Mr. Roy Beck and Miss Effie Campbell. The house was
very prettily decorated in green for the happy event. At eight o'clock the
strains of the beautiful wedding march sounded forth from the organ which
was presided over by Mrs Don Hawkins. The bride and groom accompanied by
Miss Iva Hallenbeck and Mr. Clair Beck entered the parlors where they were
met by Rev. Wm., Haynes who pronounced the words that made them man and wife.
        Following the ceremony congratulations were extended after which a
bountiful repast was enjoyed by all. The presents were many and beautiful
as well as useful. The young people will soon be at home upon the farm now
occupied by E. E. Campbell, as he is moving to town to reside.
        Those present from away were Mr. Allen Beck and family of Hastings as well
as many from Sunfield and Chester. Saturday at the meeting of Vermontville
Grange, the happy couple were given a kitchen shower by their Grange
fretters. The best whishes of all their many friends were extended the
happy couple who, having grown up in this community, have a host of
friends. Here's congratulations.
