Wedding bells continue to ring at Sherkston. This time they rang for Miss Angie Koable, second daughter of Mr and Mrs M Koable, who was united in the holy bonds of matrimony last Wednesday to

Mr George Witherington, of Buffalo. The happy event took place in a church in the Bison City, at seven o’clock  The ceremony was performed by a reverend gentleman of that city. After the nuptial knot had been tied the guests, to the number of about forty, mostly from the city, came to this place where, at the home of the bride’s parents, the wedding festivities were held, all doing ample justice to the sumptuous dinner on the occasion. The bride was attended by two cousins, Miss Lily Weiss, of Stevensville and Miss Lily Kaulp of Buffalo, while the groom was also attended by cousins of the bride, Messrs G. Miller and Carey of Buffalo. Among the relatives from a distance were: Mrs Miller and Mrs Kaulp, sisters of the bride’s mother and Mr Anthony Koable, brother of the bride’s father. A pleasing feature of the event was the presence of the bride’s aged grandmother, Mrs Francis Koable. The happy couple will reside in Buffalo, where the groom is conductor on a trolley car.The gifts to the bride were numerous and pretty.
