The Chariton Leader, Chariton, Iowa
Thursday, March 22, 1906
Married, Wednesday, March 14, at 4 p.m., at the home of the bride's sister, MR. and MRS. J.T. WIRENE, near columbia, MR. FRED M. KENNEY of Belinda and MISS IDA M. LONG of Marion County. The ceremony was performed by Rev. A.L. Bates of Columbia in the presence of over fifty guests. The bride and groom entered the parlor unattended and took their place under an arch from which suspended a wedding bell. The bride was attired in a becoming gown of cream colored kraven silk, trimmed in ribbon and chiffon and also wore a white tulle veil. The bride's flowers were white carnations. The groom wore the conventional black. After congratulations, the guests repaired to the dining room where an elegant dinner was served.
The bride is the youngest daughter of W.T. LONG. She was one of Marion County's most successful teachers. By her modesty, culture and training she is well equipped to preside over the newly made home. The groom is a nephew of MRS. H.M. SPIKER of Belinda with whom he has made his home for several years. He is one of Lucas County's successful teachers, and is in every way worthy of the bride he has won. Their many friends extend to them their best wishes for a happy and prosperous wedded life. They went at once to housekeeping on a farm in English Township.
