THOMPSON–DEANS

[Welland Tribune September 1, 1905]

The residence of George Deans in Stamford township was the  scene at noon on Tuesday last of an interesting event, when his eldest daughter, Carrie Hyatt, became the wife of Mr. Charles Wilbur Thompson  of Niagara Falls South. The ceremony which took place in the presence of only the immediate relatives of the  contracting parties was performed by the Rev, J,R, Patterson, pastor of  Thorold Methodist church, under a  magnificant floral arch from which was suspended a horseshoe design of heads of wheat. The charming bride was gowned in white organdie and  carried lilies. She was attended by her sister Miss Laura Deans, who was becomingly attired in white, while Mr. Thos. Delaney of Niagara Falls, Ont., ably supported the groom. After the ceremony the usual  congratulations and good wishes extended and a sumptuous wedding dinner was served. The happy couple left during the afternoon for a brief  honeymoon to be spent at Toronto and western points. On their return they will take up their residence at Niagara Falls South where the groom occupies a good position in the employ of the Oneida Community. Mr, and Mrs.  Thompson will have the best wishes of a  wide circle off friends and acquaintances throughout the district hat their wedded life may be happy and prosperous.
