MARRIED—On Monday 24th inst., in St. Peter’s church, this city, by Rev. Father Vermsre, Mr. Antoine Sharrow, of this city, and Miss Jennie LeClaire, of Fond du Lac.
So at last this long-talked of event has been consummated. The wedding was a quiet one, only the nearest friends of the bride and groom being present. The bride was attired with exquisite taste, while the groom looked as though he had just emerged from a band-box. In the evening the happy event was celebrated by a supper and dance, to which almost everybody in the city had been invited. The supper was served in the spacious dining room of the American House, the residence of the groom’s brother. After ample justice had been done to the sumptuous repast, the newly married couple and their friends repaired to the large hall in the Waterloo House to indulge in the mazes of Terpsichore. Nearly all those who had invitations extended them were present and consequently the hall was densely packed; and a more jolly crowd of young folks it would be hard to find. The light fantastic was tripped until early morn, when the crowd dispersed wishing the happy couple, no doubt, many years of happy wedded bliss, in which wish THE REPORTER joins.

COLE-HOEFFEL. The nuptials of Mr. Henry U. Cole, only child of Augustus Cole, and Miss Aggie, youngest daughter of Joseph Hoeffel, all of this city, were solemnized last Monday between the hours of 10 and 11 a. m., at St. Joseph’s Roman Catholic church in this city, in the presence of a large number of friends and invited guests. The bridal party left the residence of the bride’s father at precisely 10 a. m. and repaired in carriages to the church. Upon the approach of the cortege the bell tolled out its joyous tones, welcoming the happy company. While the party entered the church, in the order given below, the glad peals of the organ pealed out a brilliant wedding march, selected for the occasion by Miss LeClair, of Green Bay, who presided at the organ.
The order of entry
as follows:
Bridesmaids:
Lizzie
Hoeffel
Hattie
Halcombe
Groomsmen:
Frank

Cole, Mr. A. Cole
I. S. Hoeffel and
wife
Messrs. Frank Hoeffel and Boylan acted as ushers.
The first part of the ceremony, known as we are informed in the ritual of the church as, “marriage in Mass,” was then performed by the Rev. Sweibach, pastor of the church, after which Solemn High Mass was celebrated by Rev. Fathers Sweibach, Vermare and Schulthoffer, officiating clergymen. The choir, composed entirely of the LeClair sisters of Green Bay, specially engaged for the occasion, gave one of their favorite anthems, which has been pronounced one of the finest efforts ever presented in this city.
The day was all that could be asked for. There was not a cloud in the sky, which we hope prefigured the life of the happy couple, and that there may not be a cloud in their domestic and social lives. If happiness rests in loveliness, not the tinniest shadow will ever darken the young bride’s brow.
The bride was
dressed in cream colored satin, in train,
trimmed with Spanish lace and brocade satin, a handsome silk elusian
vail,
and hair decorated with orange blossoms.
On the 25th ult.,
John Danak, of this city, and Miss
Anna Kuccra, of West Kewaunee, were joined in holy bands of matrimony
