A pretty wedding took place last evening in Sheakleyville when Miss Madge Dick, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. F. S. Dick was united in marriage to Frank Faller, son of Mr. and Mrs. J. M. Faller, Ohio Street, this city. The vows were exchanged in the living room of the Dick Family before the fireplace banked with autumn flowers, palms and ferns. Rev. Deems, pastor of the First Methodist Church of Sheakleyville officiated.
The bride was attired in a gown of tan georgette with slippers and hose of corresponding shades and carried an arm bouquet of Columbia rose buds. Miss Inez Dick attended her sister as maid of honor and wore a frock of rose beige georgette. Her flowers were an arm bouquet of Ophelia roses. Ralph Dick, a brother of the bride, attended Mr. Faller.
Following the ceremony, a wedding supper was served in the home of the bride's parents. Places were laid for 16 guests including a few close friends and members of the families. A large wedding cake occupied the center of the table and the remaining decorations were carried in bridal appointments.
Mr. and Mrs. Faller are residing at the home of the groom's parents, Ohio Street, for the present.
The bride is a charming young woman and has a wide circle of friends in Sharon. She was formerly in charge of the office of Dr. Caroline Gilliland and made her home with Mr. and Mr. Fred Rodecker, Alderman Avenue.
