William W. & E. Christine (Frink) Dibble

 

A beautiful home wedding occurred at the residence of the bride's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Christopher R. Frink, on East Main street [Norwich, Chenango Co., NY], last Monday evening, when their daughter, E. Christine Frink, was joined in marriage to William W. Dibble, of Elmira.  Only immediate relatives were present at the ceremony, which was performed at 8:30 o'clock by Rev. F.W. Maccaud, of Syracuse, formerly assistant rector of Emmanuel Church here. The home had been tastefully decorated with ferns, daisies and roses by friends of the bride. The bride is one of the most charming of Norwich's young society ladies and the groom is a popular Norwich boy who at present holds a responsible position as superintendent of the book binding department at Elmira reformatory. Together they have a large acquaintance and were the recipients of hearty congratulations from a wide circle of friends.  Many valuable and useful presents were bestowed upon the happy pair.  Light refreshments were served, after which Mr. and Mrs. Dibble left on a two weeks' wedding trip. They will return to Norwich for a brief visit before going to Elmira to reside.

The green arbor, the roses and flowers used in the decorations, and the refreshing showers of the early part of the day, followed by the cheering sunshine and the large company of well-wishing friends joined in making a pleasing home wedding scene.  The beautiful presents and hearty congratulations showed that Mr. and Mrs. Crandall are highly esteemed.
