Village Gossip

.......
A most surprising event was the
marriage of Miss Helen Ingraham Gil
lespie to Leslie A. Counts, which was
performed by Commissioner R. H. L.
Noakes. Mrs. Counts arrived but a
few months ago from Tacoma, where
she was employed as a stenographer
by the Carstens Meat Packing Com
pany. During her stay here she has
become a popular member of the
younger set.
Mr. Counts is the representative of
the Pacific Navigation Company and
has resided here for some time past.
The wedding was a quiet affair, wit
nessed only by the most intimate
friends. Attending the bride and
groom were Mrs. Walter L. Smith
and Mrs. H. D. Counts. The bride was
most becomingly attired in a dark blue
satin dress and a small black traveling
hat.
Mr. and Mrs. Counts are living in
the Couts apartments in the Lathrop
building. They are beginning life with
the most sincere congratulations from
their host of Cordova friends.

The wedding of Mrs. Iris Brimmer
and Mr. Neil Wade was solemnized by

turned and is employed at the Breh
mer drug store. Mr. Wade arrived
on the Northwestern from Stockton,
where he was a well known business
man.
The marriage ceremony was a quiet
affair witnessed only by a few in
timate friends attending the bride and
groom. A delicious wedding supper
was served at the Brehmer apart
ments.
