The Grip
lies Gertrude A. Pscii Becomes
the Buds of John F. Bums
MARRIED [IN HER SICK BED
The Wedding Day Had Been Bot, and
the Young Couple Decided that
illness Should Not Prevent
the Ceremony.
Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Lavender Peck,
of 98 East avenue. Norwalk. announce
the marriage of their daughter. Ger
trade Amanda Peck. to John Frederic
Burrow. Jr., of. New York city. which
took place yesterday at the bride‘s
home. Mr. and Mrs. Burrow will be at
home to their friends Tuesday even
lugs, February 5 and )2.
A romance is connected with the
wedding. Miss Peck was taken ill with
the grip. a few days ago.
As the. day set for the. wedding up
preached the malady became worse.
and the attending physician positively
forbade Miss Peck's sitting up. The
announcements had been secured and
many bridal gifts received. At met
if was deemed prudent to defer the
ceremony. but the groom suggested
that. rather than have the affair post-
poned and be overwhelmed with sym-
pathy. he would see the affair through
if the bride was willing.
There was no objection, and at the
appointed time the bride was propped
up in bed and the Rev. J. Morris Cocrr.
rector of St. Paul's Church. performed
the ceremony In the presence of a con-
genial party of near relatives and
friends. Though performed under no
i‘llllfll‘ circumstances. the waddiug was
none the less a happy one, and the ro-
mantic side of the affair rather lent
cnchautmeni to the wedding scene.
As soon as the bride is able. Mr. and
Mrs. Burrow will depart for ii short
bridal tour.
