She wore a gown of mouslin de soi over white silk and carried a boquet of pink Japanese lillies. The gown was trimmed with pink ribbons. The best man was Frank B. King of San Francisco.
As the bride and groom entered the parlor and proceeded to the bower of roses they were preceded by little Miss Beulah Gray of San Jose and Miss Clara Allen of Nevada City, dressed as flower girles.
