The Chariton Leader, Chariton, Iowa
Thursday, July 1, 1909

A pretty wedding occurred at the home of MR. and MRS. J.B. BRYAN, in Lincoln
Township, yesterday evening, June 30, when their daughter ZORA MAY was
joined in marriage to MR. J. ARTHUR HUTCHINSON, of Bellaire, Kansas, Rev.
Hugh Moore, Pastor of the Chariton Baptist Church, officiating in the
presence of a large company of friends and relatives. The ceremony took
place under an arch of pink roses and green, in harmony with the decorations
of the apartment, which was most beautifully and tastefully arranged. The
bride's sister, Miss Susie Bryan, executed the wedding march and the
impressive ring service was used. The bride was gowned in white Persian
lawn and carried white carnations. The maid wore pink. The groom appeared
in becoming attire and the scene was one of pleasing appointment. The
little Misses Eva Threlkeld and Lela Bryan acted as ribbon girls.

After the ceremony the guests repaired to the dining room where a sumptuous
four-course dinner was served.

The congratulations were heartily and most graciously received. The bride
is one of Lucas County's worthy young ladies and has for years been
successfully engaged in the noble calling as teacher and the acquaintance,
which culminated in the happy event of last evening, began while thus
engaged in the sunflower state. The groom is a prosperous young merchant of
Bellaire, Kansas, where they will be "at home" after July 15. They left for
Kansas today, expecting to stop over at Manhatten, to visit relatives of the
groom, after which they will enjoy the realities of domestic life in their
own home, where all wish them health, wealth and happiness.
