Item from: SOCIAL NOTES
A marriage which will be of great interest to a wide circle of friends and acquaintances, and also come as a complete surprise to a large majority of the number was solemnized at 8 o'clock last evening at the Brummette home at 748 E street. Mrs. Lissette Brummette and ex-Supervisor John Davis Clark being the principals in the quietly celebrated event.
Both the bride and groom are old and prominent residents of San Bernardino and vicinity, and will receive the sincere and cordial good wishes and congratulations of a veritable host of friends. The bride has long been an active and popular member of Silver Wave Chapter, O. E. S., in which she has held numerous offices, and is also a devoted member of the First Baptist church. Mr. Clark was for four years a member of the Board of Supervisors, and always has taken a prominent part in the fight for the artesian water rights of the property owners of this district and the valley, in the litigation with the water company of a neighboring county. He is also a popular member of the masonic fraternity.
Only a small company was present for the prettily appointed wedding last evening. The ceremony was pronounced by Rev. A. I. Goodfriend, of Berkeley, who is spending the winter in Riverside. Both Rev. and Mrs. Goodfriend are very old friends of the bride, their acquaintance having a beginning during school days in Pennsylvania.
The Brummette home was in a beautiful array of spring bloom, the reception hall in pink peach bloom and La France roses, and the double parlors in immense clusters of callas and snowy branches of the bridal bloom.
The bride wore for the ceremony a handsome spring gown of olive green foulard satin, with yoke and sleeves of cry net, embroidered in Persian colors, and trimmed also in a narrow fancy braid. The only flowers were a small cluster of orange blossoms in the hair.
Immediately after the felicitations of the company had been received, the way was led to the dining room, where an elegant wedding collation was served, the room being decked in an artistic arrangement of white and green.
From the green wreathed chandelier festoons of smilax were brought to the corners of the table, and finished with loops of green. A tall vase held a graceful cluster of white carnations and asparagus plumosus, as a centerpiece, and branches of bridal wreath were massed in the corners. Toasts were proposed and the health and happiness of Mr. and Mrs. Clark drank during the merry hour.
Later, the bride and groom were showered with rice as they departed for their future home, the base Line ranch of Mr. Clark near Harlem Springs, where they will be at home to their friends.
Those who were present for the wedding ceremony of last evening were Rev. and Mrs. Goodfriend and daughter, Miss Natalie, and sons, Philo and Phlyn Goodfriend, the three charming daughters of the bride, the Misses Marie, Grace and Ada Brummette, Mrs. Eliza Ousterhout, John Leverage (and) Miss Cedarlof.
