The home of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Stoner of Conowago township was the scene of a 
pretty wedding on Thursday evening of last week, when their daughter Edna Bell 
and John Emory Hostetter were united in marriage.  The ceremony took place in 
the parlor beautifully decorated with cut flowers and plants.  “Bridal Chorus” 
from Lohengrin was played by Miss May Rupp while the bridal party advanced to a 
bank of evergreens before which the wedding ceremony was performed by Rev. Geo. 
N. Lauffer.  Miss Anna Stoner, sister of the bride was maid of honor and Misses 
Lucy Harlacher and Alta Rebert bridesmaids.  Althus Hostetter was best man.  The 
bride and attendants were gowned in white and carried white and pink carnations.  
A wedding supper followed the ceremony.
