Article from unknown source with handwritten date of Sep 25, 1954. Extracted from the newspaper article collection started in 1879 by Mrs. Nannie Brown of Madison, Missouri. "Miss Minnie Belle Morgan, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Ernest L. Morgan, of Holliday, and Clayton D. Riede, son of Mr. and Mrs. P.C. Riede, of Keokuk, Iowa, were united in marriage at 4:00 o'clock Saturday afternoon, September 25th, at the Linwood Methodist Church. The Rev. Cockerill read the double ring service before a background of white chrysanthemums, palm leaves and white tapers. Mrs. Jerry Scofield, organist, played the wedding music and accompanied Miss Mary Call, who sang 'I Love You Truly' and 'The Lord's Prayer'. Given in marriage by her father, the bride wore a gown of white slipper satin and alencon lace. The molded satin bodice was fashioned with a low scoop neckline and long tapering sleeves and a full, floor length skirt fashioned with inverted pleats. Her fingertip veil of bridal illusion fell from a small toque of alencon lace, and she carried a white orchid, on a white prayer book, belonging to her sister and an heirloom handkerchief. Mrs. David Curtright, sister of the bride, matron-of-honor, wore a floor length gown of coral taffeta, a fitted bodice with midriff and a portrait neckline with cap sleeves and matching headdress and carried a cascade of spider bronze and gold chrysanthemums. Miss Norma Sue Cunningham, a bridesmaid, wore moss green taffeta fashioned identical to the gown and headdress worn by the matron-of-honor and carried a similar bouquet. Jack Lewis was groomsman and Joe Lennartz and Al Rogfogel ushered. The candle lighter was Miss Mary Leah Cook. A reception was held at the church where the decorations were of spider bronze and gold chrysanthemums and palm leaves. Mr. and Mrs. Riede motored to the Ozarks and Southern Arkansas. The bride traveled in a mahogany brown wool suit with beige and green accessories and wore a white orchid. The couple are at home in Kansas City, Missouri."
