MARY BURKE-FRANK SCHIHL
[Welland Tribune, 5 March 1897]
The marriage of Miss Mary Burke and Frank Schihl was celebrated at 9 o’clock by Father Leo at New Germany. The bride was prettily attired in a cream henrietta, with veil and orange blossoms, carrying bridal roses. The bridesmaids, the Misses Lizzie and Maggie Schihl, sisters of the groom, were very tastefully dressed in pale blue and white chiffon and carried white carnations. Mr. Burke, brother of the bride, was best man, and Jacob Schihl, usher. After the ceremony about fifty of the guests sat down to a bountiful dinner, at the home of the bride’s uncle, A. Klopf. The presents were many and valuable. In the evening the young people repaired to Netherby hall, where they tripped the light fantastic until the “wee sma’ hours.” May their journey through life be happy and prosperous, is the wish of their many friends.
