source Keith Thompson, Clayton, Ontario mewspaper clippings (2 4 3)

An interesting wedding took place at the Baptist parsonage on Wednesday of last week when Miss Myrtle Thompson, daughter of Mr. William Thompson was married to Mr. Wilbert
Brydges, son of Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Brydges. Rev. Victor Collins officiated.

Owing to a recent bereavement in the bride's family, the marriage cermony was very quietly observed. The young couple are both very well known, however, and the wedding
gifts were very numerous.

After the ceremony there was a family gathering at the home of the bride. Mr. and Mrs.
Brydges will reside at the groom's house on the 12th. line of Ramsay. Mrs Brydges was
beautifully gowned in blue canton crepe. The bride and groom were the recipients of
many congratulations in which the Gazette joins heartily.
