Partridge-McClain

Our Atherton correspondent writes the following:

A quiet wedding was solemnized at the home of 
Mr. James McClain of Atherton on Wednesday, 
3 Apr 1918 at 3 p.m., when his second daughter, Hattie, was united in marriage to William Francis Partridge, 
son of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Partridge of Walsh.

The ceremony was performed by Rev. N. A. Hurlbut 
of Delhi.

The bride entered the drawing room to the stains of 
the Lohengrin Bridal Chorus, played by her sister, 
Mrs. J. S. Botwright of Selkirk. She wore a gown of white crepe de chene, trimmed with ivory satin and pearls and carried a bouquet of white carnations and ferns.

She was attended by Miss Sadie Partridge, sister of the groom, who wore a gown of burgundy ninon over satin with gold trimmings and carried a bouquet of pink and white  roses. 

Mr. Robt. Boyd of Langton acted as groomsman.

The groom's gift to his bride was a pearl sunburst. The bridesmaid and organist received broaches and the groomsman a gold tie-pin.

After the ceremony a dainty luncheon was served and the happy couple left for Hamilton and Belleville, the bride travelling in a suit of battleship grey gabardine with hat to match.

Upon their return Mr. and Mrs. Partridge will be at home to their many friends at Walsh.
