Marriages (December 26)

On Saturday evening August 5th, 1922 at the home of Mr. and Mrs. William Herpick, Merchant street, occurred the marriage of Mr. Wilmore Harp of Hagerstown, Mo., to Miss Dorotha Banner of Bainbridge [Chenango Co., NY].  The ceremony was performed by the Rev. C.A. Winters, pastor of the Baptist church of this village in the presence of between fifty and sixty relatives and friends of the young people.  Before the entrance of the bridal party a solo, "O Promise Me," was rendered by Mrs. Herpick, sister of the groom, with Miss Ruth Stratton accompanist.  To the strains of Lohengren's wedding march, the bridesmaid, Miss Irene Banner, sister of the bride, and Clarence Harp, brother of the groom, entered, followed by the bride and groom.  After taking their place under the large bridal arch of golden rod and evergreen, the simple impressive service uniting the young couple in bonds of holy wedlock was read.  The bride was charmingly attired in white crepe de chine with bridal veil and carried white peas.  She was the recipient of many beautiful and useful gifts.  After congratulations and best wishes had been extended to the happy pair, dainty refreshments were served.  Several musical numbers were rendered by the three Harp brothers and Mr. Trager of Hagerstown, with the pleasing combination of violin, trombone, cornet and piano and real talent exhibited with each, the guests were afforded a real treat.  ...Oxford Review  [Bainbridge Republican, Aug. 17, 1922]
