WEYER - ROSEBERRY.

Two Well-Known Young People Happily Married on Wednesday.

  Our Arch Spring correspondent sends us the following:
  The house of Mr. and Mrs. James Roseberry, of Sinking Valley, was the scene 
of a very pleasant event Wednesday.  It was occasioned by the marriage of their 
youngest daughter, Miss Moilie [Mollie] E., to Mr. H. L. [Harry*] Weyer.
  Promptly at 12 o'clock noon the bridal party entered the beautifully 
decorated parlor in time to the wedding march played by Miss Margaret Crawford, 
after which Rev. L. M. Lewis, the bride's pastor, performed the ceremony which 
united them for life.
  Mr. Lawson Orr was the groom's best man, while Miss Sue Dixon was bridesmaid.
  The bride was dressed in white, while the groom was in the customary black.  
The waiters were in corresponding attire.
  About sixty guests were present and partook of the elegant dinner served 
immediately after the ceremony.  To say that it was enjoyed by all would hardly 
do it justice.
  Amid a shower of rice, and their carriage decorated with old shoes and white 
ribbons, the newly married pair departed by the overland route for the home of 
the groom at Petersburg, where they expect to spend a short honeymoon among his 
friends.
  The presents were numerous and useful.  The groom is an enterprising young 
man and has made his home in our valley for some time.  The bride is quite 
popular in her set and well fitted for the position she has assumed.
