Richter, a sister of the bride, and William T. Fletcher, a brother of the groom. The bride wore a suit of Edison blue and carried white roses, while the bridesmaid wore blue satin. The single-ring service was used. After the ceremony Mr. and Mrs. Fletcher went to the groom’s home on Chestnut street where a large gathering of friends were present to greet them. A wedding supper was served and a merry evening was spent. Many presents were received, including articles of silver, cut glass and gold. The bride’s gift to the bridesmaid was a gold necklace and the groom’s gift to the best man was a gold stickpin.
