METCALF-MELLOR
Mr. and Mrs. Jno Mellor entertained at their residence Wednesday evening at an excellent wedding supper and reception in honor of the marriage of their daughter Lillie to John E. Metcalf , Wednesday September thirtheenth in the Manti Temple.
Supper was served from seven-thirty to nine-thirty to upwards of a hundred and fifty guests. The young couple presiding at table. They didn't eat much, that we could observe, but kept up a merry conversation with the guests. And some of the young unmarried felt quite foolish when told that they looked alike, especially Bill.
After supper the evening was spent in music, dancing and chat. Musical numbers were rendered by Miss Vera Keller, Mr. and Mrs. Ellis Johnson and Miss Mabel Parry. The crowd broke up at about two o'clock, but even then some were dissatisfied and wanted to "stay a little longer."
The bride was gowned in corn colored charmeuse trimmed in black velvet and white chiffon. She has a beautiful and extensive trosseau.
The young couple will make their future home in Gunnison, where Mr. Metcalf is principal of the public schools.
