ANOTHER JUNE WEDDING

Miss Mary Seymour and Frank Van Dorn Wed at Mt. Morris.

St. John's Episcopal Church at Mt. Morris was the scene of the most fashionable and charming June wedding last evening at a quarter before seven o'clock, that has been celebrated in Mt. Morris in a long time, when Miss Mary Frances Seymour, daughter of Mr, and Mrs. Norman A. Seymour, was united in marriage to Frank Eastwood Van Dorn, in the presence of several hundred friends, by the Rev. W. A. Sterling, assisted by Rev. C. H. Babcock, of New York. The bride was elegantly gowned in white satin trimmed with mousseliue de soie and real lace, with train. She wore a silk tulle veil and carried bride roses. Miss Blanche Hinman, of Dunkirk; Miss Mary Brewster, of Rochester; Miss Anna Swett, Miss Ruth Bingham, Miss Bessie Seymour and Miss Charlotte Seymour, of Mt. Morris, acted as bridesmaids and were attired in white organdie over blue taffeta and carried sweet peas. E. J. Barcale, of Buffalo; Howard Bingham, of Detroit; F. N. DeCamp, of Bath; J. W. Van Dorn, brother of the groom; C. F. Braman, Jr., and W. Smith, of Mt. Morris, served as ushers. The church was beautifully decorated with roses, palms, daisies and ivy. At each seat was arranged a dainty bouquet. The bride entered the church, under an arch of roses, on the arm of her father, by whom she was given in marriage. At the altar they were met by the groom and Charles Wood Bingham of Mt. Morris, who acted as best man.

After the ceremony the bridal party left the church to the strains of the Mendelssohn wedding march for the residence of the bride's parents on State street, where a wedding supper was served to a number of the most intimate friends. The bride's table of fourteen covers was decked with roses. Immediately following the wedding supper, was given a reception, to which about 300 guest were present.
