Wedding announcement of H. Jack Knowles and Mary E. Jones

I know this was in the paper around Feb. 14, 1942. It was in one of my grandfather's scrapbooks.

Saturday, Feb. 14, 1942, Mary E. Jones, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Jones, 27 S. Collett St., became the bride of Jack Knowles, son of Mr. and Mrs. Floyd Knowles, 603 Sherman St.
The young couple pledged their troth before the altar of Free Methodist Church at 7:30 p.m. The Rev. J. L. Bright, pastor of the church, officiated with the single ring ceremony.
Attendants were Mr. and Mrs. Dan Grady, city.
The bride was attired in a beige twill suit with brown accessories and a corsage of white gardenias. Mrs. Grady wore an aqua suit with black accessories and a corsage of pink rosebuds.
A reception was held following the ceremony at the home of the bride's parents for immediate relatives and friends of the couple.
Both Mr. and Mrs. Knowles were graduated from Danville High School with the class of 1938. Mr. Knowles is a brakeman on New York Central Railroad.
The couple is now at home to their friends at 830 E. Main St., city.
