"Iowa Marriage Records; Charles Thomas Hancock of Dubuque, Iowa married Marie Young of Dubuque, IA on 21 Apr 1886 in Clinton, Clinton Co., Iowa"
WEDDING BELLS
HANCOCK-YOUNG
Another of those pleasant episodes which mark the march of time and leave a bright oasis in the memories of the past occurred Wednesday at the mansion of Mr. and Mrs. W. J. Young. In response to elegantly gotten up cards of invitation a large number of guests assembled to witness the ceremony which should make one, Mr. Charles T. Hancock, of Dubuque, and Miss Marie, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W. J. Young, of this city.
To the delicious strains of the wedding march the groom with Mr. Leiter of Chicago as best man, and the bride attended by her sister, Miss Jennie, as Maid of Honor, took their places in the bay window which was a complete bank of flowers, and beneath an arch of smilax and roses from which depended a mammoth wedding bell composed entirely of white roses and carnations.
Here the ceremony was performed by Rev. J. D. Burrell of the Presbyterian Church, which concluded, the soft sweet airs of congratulations fell gently from the ear from, an orchestra concealed in the third story, and the many friends of Mr. and Mrs. Hancock passed before the newly married couple with warm congratulations and fervent God speeds.
A sumptuous wedding supper was discussed by the guests at the conclusion of the reception.
Mr. and Mrs. Hancock departed on the midnight train for a brief bridal trip through the east, and will soon return on No. 11 Highland Place, Dubuque, where they will be at home Thursdays in May to their friends.
The floral decorations were very profuse and artistic and the eye rested upon roses wherever it turned. Upon entering the guests were confronted with a dense bank of flowers reaching up the grand stairway to the third story and the balusters were artistically entwined with smilax interspersed here and there with budding roses and at intervals with the first flowers of Spring from nature’s own garden. The guests were received by Messrs. Frank Thornburg and W. J. Young, Jr., who acted as ushers.
The following are the names of the guests present from abroad:
