Mr. Wayne G. and Erma B. (Sherwood) Benedict
Norwich [Chenango Co., NY]: An early morning wedding occurred at the home of the bride's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Jerome Sherwood, 19 Division street, on Saturday of last week when their only daughter Erma B. Sherwood, was married to Wayne G. Benedict. The ceremony as performed by Rev. John L. Ray, Ph. D., pastor of the Frist Baptist Church. Only a few very intimate friends were present, the guests being: Miss Minnie Tanner, Agnes Kingsley, Bertha Goodwin and Harriet Wilcox, of this place, Misses Bessie Stalwood and Lilah Johnson, of Syracuse, and Miss Sarah Harpur of Harpursville, and Addison E. Benedict, a brother of the groom. The bride was gowned in cream crepe de chine over taffeta. After the ceremony a wedding breakfast was served. The decorations throughout the house were simple and effectively arranged, special attention being given the parlor where the ceremony was celebrated. There were many appropriate wedding gifts. Both bride and groom were popular at the universities form which they have just graduated, the former from Syracuse and the latter, with especial honors, from Colgate and both have been active in church and social circles. Many good wishes followed them as they started out overland on their honeymoon trip, driving to Greene. After a period of camp life at Lakeview they will continue their trip to Cortland, Ithaca and Harpursville. In the fall they will go to Brookfield where Mr. Benedict will become principal of the High School.
