Wedding Bells Bowlby - Wotton
A very pretty home wedding took place at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. George A. Wotton, Wilmot on Wednesday morning, Dec. 27th, when their youngest daughter, Jennie Raymond, became the bride of Neil Ross Bowlby also of Wilmot. The bride was attended by Miss Evelyn Bowlby, sister of the groom, while the groom was supported by Louis E. Wotton, brother of the bride. Little Jean Bowlby acted as ring bearer. The ceremony was performed by the Rev. J. D. Skinner, of Yarmouth, uncle of the bride, the double ring ceremony being used. The bride was tastefully attired in white silk and bridal veil and carried a large bouquet of ferns and bridal roses. The bridesmaid was dressed in blue silk and carried a bouquet of pink carnations. The grooms present to the bride was a gold watch and chain, to the bridesmaid a ring and the ring bearer a locket and chain. Among the number of handsome presents was a large rocker from the Wilmot Sunday School and some valuable dishes from the Wilmot Club and a nice assortment of silverware, china etc. from a large number of invited guests present. After a dainty wedding breakfast the happy couple were driven to Middleton where they took the D.A.R. express for Boston where they will visit relatives. On their return they will reside at Wilmot.
Their marriage certificate is numbered 2412. The clergyman was Rev. J.D. Skinner, her uncle an United Baptist minister. The witnesses were Charles L. Wood of Annapolis, N.S. and John G. Marsters, Melvern
