Illsey - Ackerill |
ILLSEY - ACKERILL - Belleville, Ontario, Sept 14
- St. Thomas Church was crowded this morning, the attraction being the
marriage of Miss Anna Mabel Ackerill, second daughter of Dr. D. H. Ackerill, V.
S., to Mr. Eugene Victor Illsey, formerly of Picton, now manager of the
Standard Bank at McTaggart, Sask., and formerly at the staff of the same bank
in this city. The sacred edifice was
appropriately decorated with golden rod and golden glow for the occasion by
the girl friends of the bride.
Sharply at ten o’clock the bridal party entered the church to the
strains of the wedding march from Lohengrin, played by Miss L. LaVoie,
organist. The bride proceeded up the aisle on the arm of her father. She looked very charming in a dress of
ivory duchesse satin wearing the customary veil and a wreathe of orange
blossoms, and carrying white roses.
The maid of honor was Mrs. (Rev.) G.R. Beamish, the sister of the
bride, who wore pink crepe de chene and carried pink chrysanthemums. The bridesmaids were Miss Flossie Graham,
of Belleville, and Miss Jessie Newberry, of St. Louis, both of whom were
dressed in yellow crepe de chene with large picture hats of black and bore
red roses. Mrs. (Dr.) Ackerill,
mother of the bride wore brown silk with hat to match. The groom was attended by Mr. E.
O’Flynn. the ushers were Messrs Chas.
Addison, uncle of the bride, Rochester;
Joseph Wallbridge, Harold Clarke, Hugh Williamson, of Picton. The ceremony was performed by the Rev.
Rural Dean Beamish, rector of St. Thomas and brother-in-law of the
bride. After the magic words had been
said that made the happy couple man and wife and during the signing of the
register, Mrs. Charles Wilmot sang, “Beloved it is Morn.” Immediately thereafter the bridal
procession left the church to the pealing notes of Mendelssohn’s “Wedding
March.” The party then repaired to
the home of the bride’s parents on John street where a wedding breakfast and
reception was held. There were many
guests both from Belleville and from outside places. Mr. and Mrs. Illsey left on the 1.50 train
this afternoon for their home in McTaggart.
A very large number of handsome presents were received by the
bride. Particularly noticeable among
them was a handsome clock the gift of the men of John Street Presbyterian
church, of whose choir the groom was formerly a member. The many friends of
the popular young couple will wish then perfect happiness in their
matrimonial life. |
