HAPPILY WEDDED!
Rev. L. M. Mulliken and Miss Pluma Belle Farrier United in Marriage
Tuesday Evening.
One of the happiest social events of this week was the wedding of Miss Pluma Belle
Farrier to Rev. Louis M. Mulliken, pastor of the Christian church of this place. The ceremony was performed at
the home of the bride's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Farrier, and was witnessed by a large number of relatives
and friends. Rev. J. T. Faulders of the Christian church of Arcola spoke the solemn words which bound the young
couple together for life.
The bride was very fair, in a handsome suit of blue cloth. The groom wore the conventional black. After congratulations
had been offered, Rev. and Mrs. Mulliken led the way to the dining room, where a sumptuous feast was enjoyed.
The groom is a most excellent young man. He has made many friends during the two years he has been pastor of the
church here, and has been retained by the Christian people for another year. The bride is the charming daughter
of Mr. and
Mrs. Joseph Farrier, highly respected residents of this township. She is a most worthy young woman, well fitted
to help her husband in his chosen work. The newly wedded couple took the, east bound train, Wednesday morning amid
a shower of rice, for Franklin, Indiana, where they will spend about two weeks visiting the relatives of the groom,
after which they will return and take up their residence in Hindsboro. The News offers congratulations and wishes
them many years of happy wedded life.

The residence of Mr. and Mrs. W. B. ERVIN, one and a half miles north of town, was the scene of quite a pleasant gathering on Thursday night
of last week, the occasion being a reception tendered by the father and mother of John ERVIN to the friends of himself and wife, Mr. S. Hatty THORNTONERVIN. The roads leading from town being in good condition., the drive out was very enjoyable, and to say
that the appetites of the guests were good would hardly suffice. The table, in the language of our German friend,
was loaded with all the indelicacies of the season. The toiletts of the ladies were elegant, most noticeable being
that of the bride, who was attired in a lovely costume of pink, silk, princess style. Mr. and Mrs. ERVIN, the host and hostess, understand fully the art of entertaining,
as the guests can fully attest. The guests departed about 1 o'clock, feeling that they had spent a very pleasant
and enjoyable evening. [The Saturday Journal, November 16, 1878]
