	Yesterday afternoon at four thirty o’clock at the beautiful home of the bride’s uncle, Mr. F.A. 
Gillespie, on Sixth and Osage streets, Miss Ilo Beatrice Gillespie, of Owasso, Okla., and Mr. S.L. Harper, 
of Bartlesville, Okla., were united in marriage, the Rev. Percy Knickerbocker officiating, using the pretty 
ring ceremony.
	To the beautiful strains of Lohengrin’s Wedding March, played by Miss Della Martin, a very dear 
friend of the fair bride, the bridal couple, unattended, approached the marriage altar, where Rev. 
Knickerbocker pronounced the ceremony that made them man and wife.
	Pink and yellow roses, ferns, palms and trailing smilax were used in profusion throughout the 
home to add to the loveliness of the affair.
	The bride’s wedding gown was an exquisite cream marquisette over messaline, and she carried a s
hower bouquet of yellow roses and lilies of the valley.  Her going-away costume was a handsome tailored 
affair of champagne broadcloth, with all accessories to match.
	The guest list included between thirty and forty relatives and close friends of the bride and groom.
	The ceremony was followed by a delightful reception, during which the daintiest of refreshments, 
still further carrying out the color scheme of the affair, were served.  This was followed by an elegant 
six o’clock dinner at which covers were laid for the following:  Mr. and Mrs. F.A. Gillespie, Mr. and Mrs. 
Harper, Miss Hazel Baker, Miss Della Martin, Miss Lea Etta Dove, of Bartlesville, Miss Ione Gillespie, Miss 
Eula Upton, of Owasso, Mr. Bernard Gillespie, Mr. Lester Gillespie, Mr. Palmer Gillespie and Mr. H.C. Benson.
	The bride is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W.P. Gillespie, of Owasso, and has a host of friends in 
Tulsa, having spent much of her time here, the guest of Mr. and Mrs. F.A. Gillespie.
	Mr. and Mrs. Harper left at eight ten, last night for San Francisco, California, where they will 
make their home.
