RECENT MARRIAGES.

  A very quiet and pleasant wedding took place at the residence of Hon. 
S. B. Isenberg, at Birmingham, at high noon on Christmas Day.  The 
occasion was the marriage of his oldest daughter, Miss Clara Belle, to 
Mr. M. A. Hovater*, of Sioux City, Iowa.  The room in which the 
ceremony was performed was beautifully decorated for the occasion.  The 
bridesmaids were Miss Margie Humphreyville, of Lancaster; Miss Hattie 
Campbell, of Martinsburg, and Miss Fannie Isenberg, sister of the 
bride.  The groomsmen were J. S. Metz, of Williamsburg; F. Blair 
Isenberg, of Huntingdon, and Irwin Isenberg, brother of the bride.  
After congratulations a very bountiful repast was served, to which 
ample justice was done by all present.  The happy couple left for their 
home in Sioux City on fast line, with the intention of remaining a few 
days in Fort Wayne, Ind.  The ceremony was performed by the Rev. John 
W. Pontius, of Martinsburg, Pa.
