Miss Edith Clark and Mr. J. Harold Montgomery were united in marriage Wednesday noon at the home of the bride's uncle and aunt, Mr. and Mrs. Burt of 45 Ferry avenue, Detroit.

The wedding was simple but pretty. The little ribbon girl followed by the flower girl and bridesmaid, Miss Lucy Frieze of Detroit, led the bridal party. The bride in her gown of white lace and ganzy veil, carrying lillies of the valley, followed, leaning on the arm of her uncle, who gave her away. The groom came in with his best man, Mr. Vernor Snauble of Ann Arbor. While Miss Gertrude Chute of Ann Arbor, played Lohengrin's wedding march the party took its place before a great bank of palms in the front parlor. Here Rev. T. W. Young of Ann Arbor, read the simple ring service.

Refreshments were then served in the dining room, the decorations of the bridal table being a great mound of white carnations for a center piece. After a merry hour spent with the friends Mr. and Mrs. Montgomery left for a short lake trip after which they will return to make their home in Detroit.

Miss Clark was a graduate of this year's literary class, a fine student and very popular with her class mates. While in college she was one of the most enthusiastic workers in the Students Christian Association, and a member of the Pi Beta Phi sorority.

Mr. Montgomery is the only son of Prof. and Mrs. Jabez Montgomery of Ann Arbor, and a graduate of the engineering class of '97. Since his graduation he has been in the employ of Field, Hinchman & Smith, engineers and architects, of Detroit.
