Pretty October Wedding 

Yesterday St. James Church was the scene of a very pretty October wedding when 
Miss Muriel Roberts, youngest daughter of W. H. Roberts of Woodhouse, and 
Harold O. Squires [sic] of Waterford, only son of S. L. Squires [sic] of Toronto, were united by the bonds of holy matrimony by the Rev. D. A. Moir of Simcoe.

The contracting parties were unattended, and at 12:15 the bride entered the church to the strains of Mendelssohn's march, played by Mr. Wilfred Davis of Hamilton, and was given away by her father.

This winsome bride looked her best gowned in a navy blue broadcloth suit with seal trimmings and brown hat.

The church was prettily decorated with ferns, gladioli, roses and asters, and a throng of the many friends of this popular young couple gathered to witness the ceremony, including several from a distance.

Harold McMichael of Waterford and 
Miss Florence Woolley of Burford acted as witnesses and then the bridal party left the church a motor well clad with the usual nuptial decorations awaited them, which is believed conveyed them to an eastbound train en route for Montreal.

On Tuesday last, Mrs. Oscar McMichael received in honor of Mrs. Harold Squire, nee Muriel Roberts, an October bride.

Mrs. McMichael and Mrs. Squire were assisted by Mrs. S. L. Squire of Toronto, and Mrs. Wm. Roberts, the bride's mother.

Miss Dora McMichael poured the coffee and Miss Emma Beemer, Miss Helen Duncombe and Miss Marie Clark assisted in serving.

Mrs. J. H. Stafford opened the door for the numerous callers who came to welcome the bride to a large circle of Waterford friends.
