Evening Post 23 Apr 1902
Along the Manawatu Line
Levin, 22 April - From our own correspondent

A wedding of more than ordinary interest took place to-day, when Mr Charles Cecil Nation, eldest son of Mr W. C. Nation, journalist, was married to Miss Grace Prouse, eldest daughter of Mr Richard Prouse, of the firm of Prouse Brothers, sawmillers. The ceremony took place at the residence of the bride's father, and the Rev. S. Peryman officiated. The bridesmaids were Miss Jessie Nation and Miss Jessie Prouse, and the bride and her maids were prettily attired. Mr F. J. Jones was best man. The congregation and choir of the Methodist Church presented a handsome clock as a token of appreciation for the bride's services as organist in the Levin church for eight years past, and she was entertained at a "social" on Monday night. The hands employed at the mill with which Mr Prouse is connected made another valuable present. The young couple left by train for the North.
