BURGOON.  The bride, who was given in marriage by her father, wore a gown of white satin and a white tulle veil arranged in coronet effect and held in place with orange blossoms. She carried a bouquet of white roses showered with lilies of the valley. Miss Genevieve KENNEDY, sister of the bride, was bridesmaid, and she wore a gown of yellow canton crepe with a large black picture hat and carried a bouquet of yellow chrysanthemums. John JOYCE of Clairton was best man. The bridal party entered the church and marched to the altar in the strains of the Bridal Chorus from Lohengrin played by Miss Margaret MURPHY. During the ceremony Miss MURPHY played "To a Wild Rose."  Following a short wedding trip Mr. and Mrs. BENNETT will reside in Clairton, where Mr. BENNETT conducts a barber shop.

Note: Sandy had on the master list Mathew BENNETT to S. L. Robinson, no date, in 6-17-1893 paper.  There must be another notice somewhere since she only had initials, and this clearly says Sarah Robertson.  The surname was also wrongly listed as Robinson, so maybe the error was in another notice.
