Wedded Thursday Evening.

  At half past 8 o'clock on Thursday evening last a very happy event 
occurred at the residence of A. L. Lockard, the contractor, No. 2706 
Broad street.  It was the marriage of his estimable daughter, Miss Ida 
Lockard, and Mr. Fred Oellien, of St. Louis, Mo., now employed on the 
Pittsburgh Dispatch.  The ceremony was performed by Rev. E. D. Weigle, 
pastor of the First Lutheran church, in the presence of a goodly number 
of invited guests.  The bridesmaid was Miss Maggie Painter, while the 
groom's best man was Mr. Harry Lockard, brother of the bride.  An 
elegant collation was partaken of by the guests and from 8.30 o'clock 
until 12 a reception was tendered.  The happy couple departed for a 
western trip on Pacific express yesterday morning, and at its 
conclusion will take up their residence in Pittsburgh.  The bride was 
the recipient of many presents from her friends, thus showing the 
esteem in which she is held by them.  The TRIBUNE extends 
congratulations and hopes that the future may contain naught but 
happiness for the newly wedded couple.
