  	The Conneaut Daily Post-Herald One of the prettiest home weddings of the season occurred Christmas night at the beautiful home of Mr, and Mrs. Dewitt Griffey at Cherry Hill, Pa., when their daughter, Ella M., was united in marriage to Mr. Homer B. Skinner, of Springfield township. The house was tastefully decorated for the occasion with the seasons emblems and cut flowers. Miss Levia Bond was bridesmaid, while the groom was attended by his brother, Charles S. Skinner. The wedding march was played by Miss Mabel Griffey, cousin of the bride. A few minutes past 8 o'clock the bridal party entered the parlor and took their places under the bower of evergreen and holly when Rev. S. T. Davison, of West Springfield, spoke the words which made them man and wife, the impressive ring ceremony of the Methodist Episcopal church being used. The ceremony was witnessed by the family of the bride and groom and a few of their most intimate friends. After congratulations the company sat down to a beautiful wedding supper. The bride is one of the most charming and highly esteemed young ladies of Conneaut township, where she is a popular teacher in the schools. The groom, who is the son of Mr. and Mrs. E. R. Skinner, is a prosperous young farmer and buisnessman of Springfield township. A host of friends wish for them long life and abundant happiness.
