MARRIED
On Monday, Feb. 19, at 9 o’clock at the Church of the Assumption, occurred the marriage of Miss Donna Matthews and Leonard Richardson. The bridal couple were attended by Miss Mary Carolan and Willie Matthews, Rev. Father Murtagh officiating at the ceremony.
After the ceremony a wedding dinner was served at the home of the bride to which the relatives and intimate friends of the contracting parties were invited.
In the evening a dance and reception was held in the W. O. W. hall where the young friends of the newly weds were delightfully entertained.
The bride is a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John Matthews of Bonair, the groom a son of Mr. and Mrs. Ira Richardson of Orleans Twp., both popular and highly respected citizens of this community. They will make their new home in Cresco.
The Plain Dealer joins with their many friends in extending good wishes and congratulations.
