EISELINE - BROWN

Shortsville, N. Y. - Last Thursday at the home of the bride's residence, took place a social event of more than local interest. It was the marriage of Miss Mabel Ernestine Brown, daughter of Mrs. Mary Stafford Brown, to Dr. Daniel A. Eiseline, formerly of Canandaigua, but a well-known Shortsville physician for several years past. The ceremony took place in the spacious parlors of the Heath residence, and in the presence of fully 200 guests. Decorations of rare beauty and taste filled the rooms. The ceremony was performed by Rev. Herbert H. Brown, of New Vinyard, Me., a cousin of the bride, who was assisted by Rev. William Sprague, of Kalgan, China, a missionary who had a narrow escape with his life from China a year ago. The Episcopal church ring service was adopted, and the bride was given away by her uncle, Calvin P. Brown, of this place.

An unusually interesting feature of the ceremony was the attendance as bride's maids of nine cousins of the bride -- Mrs. Edna Brown Elliott, of Corning; Miss Vera Brown, Shortsville; Miss Edwina Brown, Havre de Grace, Md.; the Misses Mildred, Hester, Louis and Virginia Heath, Shortsville, and Misses Cornelia Bidwell and Florence Stafford, Shortsville. Isaac Weisenbeck, of Canandaigua, accompanied the groom. The bride wore white satin, trimmed with light mousselin de soie and duchesse lace, and carried white roses. The maids were attired in light fabrics, two in green, two in pale yellow, two in pink, two in blue and one in lavender. At the conclusion of the ceremony, a wedding breakfast was served upon the verandas by Caterer Ridley of Newark. Dr. and Mrs. Eiseline left later in the evening for a western trip. Gifts received included many choice things in silver, cut glass and furniture. The out-of-town guest list was an extensive one, relatives being present from New York, Boston, Philadelphia, Chicago, Buffalo, Syracuse, Baltimore, Washington and many other places.
