Society Hotes 
With members of their own families 
and immediate relatives as their only 
guests, Mrs. Louis Agassiz Shaw of 
Chestnut Hill and John Silsbee Curtis of 
Boston were married at 12.30 Wednes- 
day. Simplicity marked the ceremony. 
The groom is the son of Mrs. Hall Cur- 
tis, of the Beverly Farms colony, and the 
bride is also of the Beverly Farms colony, 
the mother of Q. A. Shaw, 2d, who 
married Miss Naneen Mitchell last year. 
The ceremony was performed by the 
Rev. Edward Hale, minister of the 
Chestnut Hiil Unitarian church. There 
were no attendant bridesmaids. The 
best man was Gordon Dexter. Mrs. 
Shaw’s son, Q. A. Shaw, 2d, gave her 
in marriage. The few present offered 
their congratulations so informally that 
the services of ushers were unnecessary. 
_A wedding breakfast followed the little 
reception.
