Marriages (January 27)

One of the loveliest church weddings ever witnessed in Bainbridge [Chenango Co., NY] was held in the Presbyterian church last Thursday, at 4 o'clock p.m.  The occasion was the marriage of Mr. George T. Campbell of Brooklyn, N.Y., to Miss Georgianna Roberts, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J.M. Roberts of this village.  The church was prettily and tastefully decorated with flowers and potted plants of all descriptions, the organ and organist being hidden from view by the beautiful adornments.  The church was well filled by relatives and friends, from far and near, who were escorted to seats by the ushers, Harry L. Beatty and J. Earle Roberts of Bainbridge, and James Campbell and Pierre Ackerson of Brooklyn.  Mrs. Charles B. Chapman of Norwich presided at the organ.  Amid the strains of joyful music the bridal party entered, the minister and groom in advance, followed by the ushers and six little girls dressed in white each carrying a bouquet of beautiful flowers, the bride, supported by her father following.  Standing under a floral bell, beneath an archway of evergreens, the bride and groom accepted the solemn marriage vows, according to the beautiful marriage ceremony of the Episcopal church.  The bride was beautifully dressed in a visiting suit of Resida green, trimmed with cream and white.  She wore cream colored gloves, and hat trimmed to match her elegant costume.  Amid showers of rice and the congratulations of their many friends the bridal couple departed on train no. 6, at 5:19 p.m., for an extended honeymoon tour, after which they will reside in Brooklyn.  The bride is one of Bainbridge's most lovely and popular daughters, and the good wishes of a multitude of friends are with her.
