HAPPILY WEDDED.

  Wednesday evening Rev. J. B. Shaver pronounced the words which united for 
life Mr. William Mitchell and Miss Dolly Hall.  The groom is employed as roller 
by the Altoona Iron company and is a member of the Millville band.  The bride 
is one of Millville's most estimable young ladies, and the eldest daughter of 
Mr. E. Hall.  They were attended by Mr. Jacob Mitchell, brother of the groom, 
and Miss Annie Hall, sister of the bride.  Immediately after the ceremony a 
reception took place at the residence of the bride's father, where a host of 
friends were gathered.  The groom has purchased a home in Altoona city, where 
he and his bride will reside.  They received many useful and valuable presents 
among which was the bridal cake, baked and presented by brides cousin, Harry 
Herr, of the Model Bakery.  They were sernaded [sic] by a Millville cornet 
band.  The TRIBUNE acknowledges the receipt of an elegant cake and wishes the 
happy couple a long and happy life.
