NESBIT - BUSER WEDDING EVENT
Ceremony Takes Place at Home of Bride in Bressler

  A pretty home wedding took place on Thursday evening at Bressler, 
when Miss Dorothy Buser, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Edward Buser, of 
Bressler, and Russell Nesbit, son of Mrs. F. Botz, were married at the 
home of the bride's parents, with the Rev. M. P. Hocker, of Middletown, 
officiating. 
  The Bride wore a gown of white georgette crepe and carried a basket 
filled with white bridal roses and artistically trimmed with bows of 
tulle and satin.  Miss Sara Edwards, of Bressler, who was the bride's 
only attendant, wore a frock of pink voile and carried a basket filled 
with pink roses with a large bow of pink satin ribbon tied on the 
handle.  Elmer Brumbaugh was best man.  Roses and honeysuckle were most 
attractive throughout the house and quantities of ferns formed an alter 
where the ceremony took place.
  A reception was held immediately after the ceremony.  Quite an 
innovation was the giving of favors by the bride, which were cleverly 
concealed in the basket of roses she carried.
  The young couple left for an extended wedding trip at 11 o'clock in 
the evening; escorted to the station by a large number of friends.  
Mrs. Nesbit's traveling suit was of dark blue poplin with a hat to 
match.
