Notes for Flora Vermilla (Midget) HAIGH
REYMANN-HAIGH June 4, 1910 Mariposa Gazette
MARRIED NEAR COULTERVILLE A Nevada Man Cliams a Bride from Mariposa County.
A pretty romance of the Mariposa hills that had its beggening two years ago in a love-at-first-sight meeting, had its happy culmination on the morning of Sunday, May 29th, when Flora Vermilla HAIGH became the bride of William Maurice REYMANN. The ceremony was performed at 6 o’clock, at the home of the bride’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. John P. HAIGH, at Penon Blanco, three miles north of Coulterville, the Rev. William PIERCE of Big Oak Flat officating and the posts of honor besides the bride and bridegroom being filled by Miss Dolly HAIGH and Mr. John MARCONI of Stockton. Only immediate relatives were witnesses of the marriage, which was followed by a jolly breakfast, the bridal party leaving immediately after for Stockton. Mr. and Mrs. REYMANN go from Stockton to Southern California, including a side trip to Mexico, the honeymoon journey ending at Searchlight, Nevada, where they will make their home.
“Midget,” as the bride is widely and popualarly known, was gowned for the ceremony in a stlylish traveling suit of gold cloth, setting off to spendid advantage her petite prettiness. A beautiful picture hat, with an immense white plume, added an ultra fashionable touch to her traveling attire. Mrs. REYMANN is a native of Mariposa countyand even those who are heartiest in their congratulations must feel a keen sence of regret that her marriage takes her from the midst of life-long friends. Mr. REYMANN is an amalgamator at the Quartette mills, Searchligh. Two years ago he came to Coulterville as a guest of the bride’s brother. Romntically, he rode up on horseback into the life of the little lady who is now his wife, for it was from the back of a horse that he caught his first glimpse of the Mrs. REYMANN-to-be, sitting in the vine-covered porch of her father’s home is simple, but charming negligee of a household dress. He fell instantly in love, but the prompt return of his afection was artfully concealed by the little miss, while a courtship of two-years duration progressed. The bridegroom ws threatened with severe illness last week, and Saturday night it was feared the ceremony would have to be postponed. He was much better, however, Sunday morning, and his friends have since laughingly attributed his sickness to be a bad case of fright. At any rate, he nerved himself gallantly for the final ordeal. The best wishes of a wide circle of friends and acquaintences go with Mr. and Mrs. REYMANN to thier new home in Nevada, where a newly purchased home awaits them. Not the least cherished of the articles that will adorn their little nest will be the numerous presents made to the bride and groo by loving relatives and friends.
