Marriage of Thomas Gagnon & Ora Williamson

On last Saturday evening at 8 o'clock a very pretty wedding occurred at Grace Congregational church when Miss Ora Williamson, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Jesse Williamson of this city was joined in holy wedlock to Mr. Thomas Gagnon, also of Two Rivers. Four nuptial arches strung with verdant green and adorned with carnations, made the center aisle of the church an appropriate approach to the sacred marriage altar. As the church was filling with wedding guests, Mrs. Guy Hildebrant, contralto soloist of Grace Church sang "O Promise Me". Promptly at 8 o'clock to the strains of the wedding march played by Mr. Harold Willard, the processional began and in dignity and majesty the scene for the holy rites was set. Four young ladies of the Nerquescun Camp Fire of which the bride is a member led the procession in costume, these were the Misses Mabel Feistel, Violet Broecker, Alice Mahnke and Lucy Borestsky. The bride was assisted by Miss Agnes Doty of this city and Miss Amanda Poeckelman of Mishicot, both of whom looked very charming gowned in white. The bride, looking charming in her wedding gown of filmsy white with the regular wedding veil and carrying a bouquet of white roses was given away by her father. The groom was ably assisted by Messrs Clyde Williamson and Roy Sievert of Manitowoc. The ushers were five Camp Fire girls in costume, the Misses Antoinette Bishop, Celia Wachtel, Mary Skladziez, Irene Gauthier and Angeline Laurent. The ceremony was performed by Rev. A. D. Grey, pastor of Grace Church. After the ceremony the wedding supper was served at the home of the bride's parents. The bride is a very popular young lady of Two Rivers and an ardent worker in Grace Church where she taught a Bible School class for several years. The groom is employed at the Hamilton Mfg. Co. A host of friends of the couple join in felicitation and wishes for prosperity and happiness. The Reporter, Thurs., Feb. 7, 1918
