RORICK-FOSTER
Morenci, Mich., Sept. 17 - A most beautiful wedding occurred on Wednesday at 
noon at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Cosper Rorick, when their daughter, Leila, 
was united in marriage to Mr. Albert Foster.  The ceremony was performed by 
the Rev. Trevor C. Jones in the presence of a large number of guests, all of 
whom, however, were immediate relatives or near friends of the contracting 
parties.  The color scheme of the decorations was green and white, and was 
carried out in white asters, white  carnations, lillies, and smilax; while 
just back of the improvised altar was a massive bank of palms.  The bride was 
dressed in cream crepe de chine and carried a shower bouguet of white 
rosebuds.  She was attended by her cousins, Miss Irene Jewett, of Dayton, O., 
and Miss Bessie Bennett, of Detroit.  These bridesmaids were becomingly gowned 
in white, and carried shower bouquets of pink roses.  Mr. Shirley Foster, 
brother of the groom, acted as best man, while Dr. Ewart and Mr. Norman Horton 
did duty as ushers.  Following the ceremony an elegant four course dinner ws 
served, Mrs. Miller, of Adrian, being the caterer, while Jackson's orchestra, 
of the same city, discoursed sweet music.  The gifts were numerous and costly, 
consisting mainly of cut-glass, silver, china and linen.  Among these were a 
set of solid silver all in the same pattern, of knives, forks, tea, dessert 
and table spoons, oyster forks, from the immediate family of the bride, andone 
hundred dollars in gold from Mr. Oscar Foster, the groom's father.  Mr. and 
Mrs. Foster left on the afternoon car for Toledo, Detroit, and other points of 
interest.  After their return they will reside in their new home on East 
street, which is already prepared for their occupancy.  Mrs. Foster is a 
graduate of Adrian college, and was for the last two years a teacher in our 
public schools, where her work was of a very high order.  Socially she is much 
admired and greatly esteemed for her many excellent qualities.  Mr. Foster is 
cashier of the First National bank, which position he has held for four 
years.  He is a young man of excellent business qualities and a great favorite 
in society.  The guests from out of town were Mr. Horton Rorick, wife and 
daughter; Mr. and Mrs. Sidney Spitzer, Toledo; Mrs. Rorick Bennett and 
daughters, Mrs. Willis Clark, Miss Bessie Bennett, Detroit; Mrs. Dr. Jewett 
and daughter, Irene, of Dayton, O.; Mr. George Horton and family, Fruit Ridge;
