Posy-Shirk

A very pretty wedding was solemnized on Thursday April 3rd(?) at the home of Mr. 
Lemon Shirk, at Oregon, Lancaster county, when his daughter, Miss Edna May, was 
united in marriage to Dr. S. R. Posy, a prominent physician of Lititz.  The 
ceremony was performed by Rev. E. S. Hagden, of Linden Hall Seminary, at Lititz.  
The bride was becomingly attired in white voile over white silk, and she carried 
a shower bouquet of Bride roses and lillies of the valley.  Mrs. John Shirk, of 
Lancaster, was matron of honor.  She wore pink charmeuse and carried pink sweet 
peas.  Mr. A. W. Posey, of Wilmington, Del., a brother of the bridegroom, acted 
as best man, and Miss Margaret Crawford, of Lancaster, a niece of the 
bridegroom, played the wedding march from "Lohengrin."  The wedding was followed 
with an elaborate luncheon.  Only the immediate families were present.  Dr. and 
Mrs. Posey departed for a brief wedding trip.  Upon their return they will 
reside in their newly-furnished home, at Lititz.
