A quiet wedding was that solemnized at the pleasant country home of Mr. and Mrs. A.E. Roberts, Wednesday afternoon, Sept. 25, 1912, when their daughter Lillie Bethiar, was united in marriage to Mr. Wilford Gough, in the presence of only a few relatives and those being the near ones. At the appointed hour of 12:30 to the strains of a wedding march as rendered by Mrs. Susanna Kernehan, a sister of the groom, the young people entered the parlor and took their places, attended by Miss Emma Roberts and Mr. Joe Gough, who were brother and sister of the contracting parties. Rev. Edward Gough, a brother of the groom, then spoke the words that were to unite the lives of these two young people forever, and it was a very impressive service. The bride looked very fair in a gown of white silk, while her sister wore a neat gown of white derge, the gentlemen wearing the suits customary for such occasions. After congratulations had been tendered the happy pair, a wedding supper was served. There were many handsome and substantial wedding presents received among them being some checks for money. These young people are both well known and most highly respected, the bride being a young lady who has made friends with all, and the groom being the second son of Rev. and Mrs. Joseph Gough and a christian young man of character and worth. Both are members and prominent workers in the M.E. church. For the winter they will remain in the Gough home and in the spring they go to housekeeping on the Louis Busse farm which the groom has rented. That happiness may be theirs through a long wedded life is the wish of their friends.
