"A
brilliant and lavish public wedding with a prominent young Cleghorn
couple to be married against the background of a spectacular musical
venue will climax the Clay county fair at Spencer on the final night of
the exposition, Saturday, September 24. The bride will be
Miss Marjorie Smith and the groom, Mr. Gunnar Osterling.
Rev. C. Roll, pastor of the Church of Christ, Cleghorn, will read the
ceremony. Fully 10,000 spectators are expected to jam
the grandstands and line up the fences Saturday night to witness the
greatest spectacle that has ever been staged in the fifteen years that
the Clay county fair has been in existence. Lavish Display The
music for the wedding has been expecially written for the occasion and
the entire company of Ernie Young's "Passing Parade of 1932," night
show at the fair, will participate in the scene. The bride and
groom will be showered with gifts donated by Clay county merchants and
the complete wedding outfit is to be provided by different firms. The
bride, eighteen years of age, and the groom, twenty-two, both are
members of two of Cherokee county's best known families.
Following the wedding at Spencer they will honeymoon in Chicago and
will return to take up their residence on a farm ten miles south of
Cleghorn where they will farm 360 acres of land."
