14 NORTH SHORE BREEZE and Reminder 
Prominent among the weddings of the week was that 
of Miss Sarah Rackemann, the only daughter of Mr. and 
Mrs. Felix Rackemann of Milton, whose marriage to 
Edward Wigglesworth of Boston and Manchester, took 
place Monday afternoon at the Unitarian church in Muil- 
ton. The bridegroom, a member of the Harvard class of 
1908, is the son of Mrs. Edward Wigglesworth of Boston 
and Manchester. His sister, Henrietta Wigglesworth, is 
the wife of Alexander S. Porter, Jr., also of Boston and 
Manchester. The church decorations consisted of white 
peonies placed effectively in large urns, with a_back- 
ground of hemlock and other greenery. Within the chan- 
cel and on the communion table were white roses, making 
a green and white wedding. The ceremony was per- 
formed by Rev. Paul Revere Frothingham, minister of 
the Arlington St. church, Boston, and the bride was given 
in marriage by her father, by whom she was escorted into 
the church. Her wedding gown was of white satin com- 
bined with tulle and, unlike most bridal costumes, it was 
without the addition of lace. Her veil also was of tulle 
and was held in place by a small cluster of orange blos- 
soms. ‘The bridal bouquet was of lilies of the valley. 
The bride’s only attendant was her maid of honor, Miss 
Rose Lee Saltonstall, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Philip 
L. Saltonstall. She was gowned in pale blue crepe and 
tulle of the same shade, and with this costume she wore 
a hat of black tulle and carried pink roses. A college 
classmate of the bridegroom, John Endicott Searle, who 
formerly kept batchelor’s hall with Mr. Wigglesworth 
in Charles River square, served as best man and the 
group of ushers was made up of the bride’s brother, Dr. 
Francis M. Rackemann, Harvard, ’09; Dr. George R. 
Minot, the bride’s cousin, Harvard, ’o8; Alexander S. 
Porter, Jr., the bridegroom’s brother-in-law; Edward 
Hale Perry, Francis A. Harding and Dr. George Park- 
man Denny, all Harvard ’og9 men; Henry Webb Hyde, 
Harvard ’o8, and Richard B. Wigglesworth, Harvard ’r2, 
the son of Mr. and Mrs. George Wigglesworth of Milton. 
After the service at the church, those who had witnessed 
the ceremony went to a reception held at the home of 
the bride’s parents, “The Haven,’ where the family lives 
the entire year. Upon their return from a wedding jour- 
ney, Mr. Wigglesworth and his bride will make their 
home at 109 Chestnut St., Boston.

“The Sign of the Crane,” Manchester’s new tea 
room, food shop, and woman’s exchange, conducted by 
Mrs. George R. Dean, on Summer St., started its first 
season with many visitors on the opening day, last Wed- 
nesday, the 17th. Many enjoyed afternoon tea in the 
pavilion overlooking the harbor and shore, from which 
a splendid view is obtained clear to Marblehead. ‘The 
shop is located in the former old Goldsmith farmhouse 
and its eight rooms are quaintly fitted up with antiques 
from the Burnham House at Ipswich. ‘he principal fea- 
ture of the new shop is the woman’s exchange, where 
the women of Manchester will find a market for their 
“cooking, sewing, embroidery and other handiwork. ‘This 
is an innovation which is much appreciated by many 
housewives, as it gives them an opportunity to dispose 
of the products of their spare time at a profitable price. 
The house itself is attractively finished inside, the general 
scheme being yellow. Outside two large signs, with the 
crane insignia, beckons the visitors to its doors. Accom- 
modations for outdoor serving of teas are provided by the 
broad piazza of the house and the pavilion high on the 
rocks, a delightfully cool place in the warmest day in 
summer. In the food shop are some of the products of 
Manchester women’s cooking,—cakes, bread, doughnuts 
and preserves.. Specimens of sewing, with embroidery, 
old china and silver and pewter, form another collection 
of attractive articles. One of the interesting pieces of 
china is the Monticello type, a copy of that used in the 
home of Thomas Jefferson. There is also a circulating 
library, a branch of the Green Box of Beverly Farms. 
The Sign of the Crane is located in the Winthrop Weth- 
erbee cottage, opposite the old cemetery.
