Pfanku, also of Arena on thanksgiving Day, November 20, 1941 at the home of the bride’s brother-in-law and sister, Mr. and Mrs. James Slauson of East Braintree, Mass.

The bride wore a raisin wine crepe gown with a corsage of white, blue and yellow flowers.  She was attended by her sister, Mrs. Slauson, who wore a pale blue crepe gown with a corsage of rust and yellow chrysanthemums.  Mr. Slauson attended the groom.

A wedding dinner was served at Toll House, Whiteman, Mass.; and the bride and groom are enjoying a sight-seeing trip in the east and will be at home at Arena, to their many friends after January 1^st.

The bride is well known here as the Orht family and Slauson family resided here for a few years.
