Wedding of Miss Hannah Smith and Lewis B. Waldron, at Scipio
The residence of Robert SMITH, in Scipio, was last Thursday evening the
scene of a large and brilliant gathering, the occasion being the marriage of his
daughter, Hannah, to Lewis G. WALDRON, eldest son of George WALDRON, a
prominent farmer of Scipio. There were about one hundred invited guests, many
friends being present from New York, Syracuse, Skaneatelas, Rochester, New Bedford,
R. I., Union Springs and elsewhere. The large double parlors at the home of
the bride were very handsomely decorated with flowers and tropical plants. In
the center was a beautiful arch of green made of ferns and Norway pine boughs.
At one end of the room, upon a long table were arranged the numerous and costly
gifts which testified in a substantial manner to the popularity of the couple
and the appreciation of a large circle of friends and acquaintances. The
bride was dressed in cream colored silk with pearl trimmings. The Rev. Mr.
HEMINGWAY, of Auburn, officiated. The bride is a very popular young lady in a large
circle of society, while the groom ia an unusually successful young business
man, whose prospects of still greater success, as the result of ability and
energy, is more than assured. An elaborate collation was served, after which the
happy couple, having received a shower of rice and good wishes, took the
evening train for New York and other Eastern cities. The parents of the groom will
give the bride and groom a very elaborate reception on their return three weeks
hence.
