Bride
by Rev. Edward C. Petrie
Cooperstown, July 16---The home of Dr. and Mrs.
Charles W. Lanning at 184 Main street was the scene of a quiet
wedding at 5 o'clock Wednesday afternoon, when their daughter, Miss
Sylvia Edwards Lanning, became the bride of Horton Clarence Mosher,
the son of Mr. and Mrs. Walter G. Mosher, of Cobleskill. The
ceremony, which was performed by the Rev. D. Edward C. Petrie of the
First Presbyterian church of Cooperstown, took place in the living
room before the fireplace, which had been banked with regale lilies
and purple Japanese iris. Only members of the immediate family were
present.
The bride wore a gown of blue chiffon, and her
bouquet was a shower of bride's roses and lilies of the valley. Her
attendant was Miss Evelyn P. Mosher of Cobleskill, a sister of the
bridegroom, who wore white chiffon, and carried sweet peas. Charles
W. Lanning Jr., a brother of the bride, acted as the best man.
Immediately following the ceremony, the wedding party
motored to Pierson Terrace, where the wedding supper was served.
There were twenty-one covers laid at the bride's table, which was
most attractively decorated with sweet peas in variegated colors, the
center-piece being a two-tier wedding cake surmounted by a miniature
bride and bridegroom. During the evening, Mr. and Mrs. Mosher left
on a honeymoon trip through the New England states, and upon their
return they will be at home to their friends at the home of the
bridegroom's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Walter G. Mosher, 9 South
Washington avenue, Cobleskill.
The bride is one of the most charming and popular of
the Cooperstown younger set. She graduated from the Cooperstown High
school with the class of 1925, following which she studied public
speaking and dramatic art for four years at Syracuse university,
graduating in 1929. During the past year she has taught dramatics in
the Cobleskill High school, in which position she is continuing next
year.
The bridegroom is a popular young man of Cobleskill,
where he has always resided. He was graduated from the Cobleskill
High school, since which he has followed the profession of
electrician in Cobleskill. Both young people have a host of friends
who extend best wishes for their future happiness.
Among the out-of-town relatives who attended the
wedding were: Mrs. Edward J. Hill of Otisco, Miss Phyllis Lanning
of Niagara Falls, Mr. and Mrs. Walter G. Mosher, Miss Evelyn
Mosher, Mr. and Mrs. Donald Mosher and Stanley Reickard, all of
Cobleskill; Mr. and Mrs. Orson Mosher and their two sons, Roland
and Donald, of South Kortright; Miss Marguerite Brewer of Hancock.
Sylvia Lanning and Horton Mosher were my paternal grandparents and I am delighted to find this post. Would it be possible to edit/correct the headline, fixing "Manning" to "Lanning"? Thank you!
