FARROW, Elizabeth - Charles E. MATSON

Source: Greencastle Star 15 May 1880 p4

Married on Thursday afternoon at the residence of the bride’s parents by Rev. James W. Greene formerly pastor of Roberts Chapel, this city – Mr. Charles E. Matson, prosecuting attorney of this Judicial Circuit, a resident of Brazil, Indiana and Miss Elizabeth E. Farrow, daughter of Col. Will L. Farrow. The ceremony was witnessed only by the relatives and intimate friends of the family. The bride appeared even handsomer than usual, being attired in a very pretty ecru changeable silk, trimmed artistically and in taste. Quite a number of relatives from abroad were in attendance: among whom we name, Mr. PA Matson, Cincinnati; Mrs. Florence Sargent, Bloomington, Ills; Mrs. Clara Matson, Danville, Ind and Mrs. Jones of Crawfordsville. The happy couple left for their future home at Brazil immediately after the ceremony, followed by the good wishes of a host of friends. Brazil’s social circle gains a bright and attractive addition in Mr. Matson’s bride. We extend best wishes for happiness, long life and prosperity to this newly married couple, and doubt not this lot will be their’s.  The bride received a large number of presents.  We note the following only:  Elegant silver water pitchers, HS Renic, JT Smith, FG Gilmore and HF Stevenson; silver pickle stand, PA Matson, Cincinnati; vase, Miss Ida M. Peck; set goblets, Joseph and Bettie Crow; two pickle stands, Misses Emma and Anna Gillespie; toilet set, Miss Eva Torr; two bouquet holders, Miss Ames carving knife and fork, Mr. and Mrs. Columbus Black; toilet mats, Miss Alice Allen; table cloths and napkins, Mrs. CC Matson; satin pin cushion, Miss Ida Allen; pearl card case, Miss Annie Bence; towels, Mrs. Sargent, of Bloomington, Ills; pillow shams, Mrs. JA Matson; pair towels, Miss Girtie Bradshaw, Bloomington, Ills.
