There was a very pretty wedding last night at 712 Eighth street, the home of Mr. and Mrs. C. N. Barclay. The occasion was the marriage of their daughter, Bertha Miesse, and William Bryson McCrea, jr., formerly of Pittsburg, but now of this city. The ceremony was performed by Rev. J. E. Irvine, Ph.D., of the Third Presbyterian church, and was witnessed by a few relatives and intimate friends. The parlors were handsomely decorated with plants and flowers. Elegant refreshments were served in a unique way, the guests being waited upon by four little friends of the bride. At the conclusion of the festivities Mr. and Mrs. McCrea were driven to their newly furnished home in this city. The bride has endeared herself to a host of friends by her bright and cheery disposition and is well qualified for her new station in life. The groom is a young man well and favorably known in the city. He is employed as a florist by the Pennsylvania Railroad company, being assistant to Mr. A. E. Woelert.
