Thompson-Hitchcock
A marriage of great interest
to many Simcoians was solemnized in Trinity Church at 2:30 o'clock
Tuesday afternoon.
The principals were Mr. Earl
Bruce Thompson, a traveling salesman for Lever Bros. of Toronto, and
Miss Winnifred, only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Alfred Hitchcock of
Simcoe.
The groom was born here,
being a son of Mr. Charles Thompson, a lifelong employee of the
Grand Trunk Railway. The bride's family have been residents of
Simcoe for a number of years. Both young people are well known and
deservedly popular.
The marriage was performed
by Rev. A. B. Farney in the presence of a few invited guests, the
immediate relatives of the contracting parties, and a church full of
friends.
The groom was accompanied to
the alter by his friend, a Mr. Maxwell, also of the Lever Bros.'
staff. The bride was unattended.
After the ceremony a
reception was held at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Hitchcock, where a
few hours were spent enjoyably by the wedding guests.
Mr. and Mrs. Thompson left
by the 7:15 p.m. radical for a short honeymoon. They are to make
their home in Simcoe, where, on College Avenue, a fine new residence
is approaching completion for them.
