Lake County Avalanche, 09 November 1893

NORTON - PINER Wedding; November 5, 1893
Last Saturday, at the residence of C. A. Piner at Kelseyville, Mr. Frank J. 
NORTON, of Yolo County, and Miss Rosa PINER, one of the most popular of the 
young ladies of Lake County, were united in the bonds of matrimony. About 60 
friends and relatives witnessed the ceremony, performed by Rev. Bruton, and 
partook of a splendid dinner. The bride was dressed in cream India silk, and 
looked more than usually charming, and every young man present envied the groom 
in his good fortune; more especially, as her beauty, though not often equaled, 
is the least of her charms. The ceremony took place at 11 o'clock, then followed 
congratulations and then the dinner. The afternoon was spent in social 
conversation and at 3 o'clock the newly wedded couple took their departure for 
Lower Lake, en route to their home in Yolo County. This ended the pleasures of 
the day, for it was a sad parting. Mr. and Mrs. Piner, especially, were nearly 
heart-broken, for this was their last and youngest child. Nor were they alone in 
their sorrow; when a turn in the road hid the departing carriage from view, few 
dry eyes were to be found. The AVALANCHE congratulates Mr. Norton, who, while 
robbing Lake County of one of its fairest daughters, has won a wife worthy of 
any man on earth. God bless them both.
