BROWN-ABBOTT
An interesting event
occurred on Thursday, 25 Apr 1918 at the home of Mr. and Mrs. T.
Nichols, when their niece, Miss Florence Abott [sic],
daughter of Private H. and Mrs. Abbott of Port Rowan, was united in
marriage to
Mr. Bruce Brown, also of Port Rowan.
Rev. H. Brand, officiated.
The bride was becomingly
attired in pale blue satin with pearl trimmings and the customary
veil and orange blossoms. She carried a shower bouquet of white
Killarney roses.
The bride entered the
drawing room to the strains of Mendelssohn's wedding march, played
by Miss Vida Graham, and was given away by her uncle, Mr. Nichols.
The ceremony was performed under an arch of evergreen and roses.
After a dainty buffet
luncheon the happy couple left amid showers of confetti for Hamilton
and points west, the bride travelling in a suit of navy blue, with
hat and shoes of grey.
Upon their return, Mr. and
Mrs. Brown will reside near Port Rowan.
