Gibbs-Cassingham.

A pleasant wedding ceremony took place at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. H. E. Richter last Wednesday at 11 o'clock a. m., being the marriage of Mr. Edward E. Gibbs and Miss Anna Cassingham, of this city, adopted daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Richter. The happy event was witnessed by only a few relatives of the family and intimate friends. Rev. L. Armsby, who has embarked so many couples on the happy journey of wedded life, was the boatman on this auspicious occasion, and pronounced the solomn words that made the twain one for life.

After the ceremony a splendid repast was partaken of by all, after which the bride and groom took their departure for an extended bridal tour. The groom is a tourist of considerble note, and in order to avoid some unplcasant encounters with former lady admirers will have to make wide and numerous detours with his bride, and may invade Canada in pursuit of a quiet place to pass the honeymoon.

The bride is one of the well known young ladies in this city, is held in the highest esteem by all who know her and possesses a host of warm friends.

The fortunate groom is one of the proprietors of the Postoffice and City book stores, and travels in Kansas for the large wholesale book and stationery house of G. T. Boland, of St. Louis. Mr. Gibbs is a gentleman who has many friends, and is highly esteemed socially and in business circles.

The young couple were the recipients of many hearty congratulations from their friends in this city and elsewhere, and the bride received a variety of handsome presents, as testimonials of the warm regard of friends.

The Republican joins in wishing them a prosperous and happy wedded life.
