PARTRIDGE- ROHDE

The home of Mr. and Mrs. August Rohde of Delhi was the scene of a pretty wedding on Wednesday, 15 Sep 1920, when their second daughter, Clara, became the bride of Harry F. Partridge, second son of Mr. and Mrs. Thos. Partridge of Walsh.

The house was beautifully decorated with asters, gladioli and sweet peas. The ceremony was performed in front of a bank of flowers and under an arch of evergreens, artistically entwined with white asters and white ribbon. Rev. Mr. Huegh of Rhineland officiated.

At the appointed time the bridal party entered the parlor, the bride leaning on the arm of her father who gave her away. The bride looked charmingly sweet in a lovely gown of sheerest organdie with tulle and flower trimmings, and carried a shower bouquet of white carnations and fern.

The bridesmaid, Miss Anna Rohde, sister of the bride, wore a pretty white dress and carried a bouquet of white and pink asters and sweet peas. The groom was supported by his brother, Albert Partridge of Walsh.

After the usual congratulations and good wishes the young couple led the way to the dining room where luncheon was served by six of the bride's young friends. The groom's gift to the bride was a gold necklace set with pearls, to the bridesmaid a broach and to the best man gold cuff links.

Mr. and Mrs. Partridge left Delhi amid showers of confetti on the 1.49 Wabash for Buffalo. On their return they will reside in Detroit.

Among the guests were Mr. and Mrs. Thos. Partridge and family, parents of the groom; Mr. and Mrs. W. Partridge, eldest brother of the groom; Mr. and Mrs. W. E. Partridge of Curries Crossing; Miss Heugh of Detroit; 
Mr. J. Dworek [sic] of Buffalo, uncle of the bride; 
Mr. and Mrs. Unverzagt; Miss Heron of Courtland.

The presents were numerous and costly, showing the high esteem in which the young people are held. Their numerous friends join in wishing them a happy and prosperous married life.
