The couple must have significant finances if they took a honeymoon of several weeks. It is always nice to find social items like this.
ReplyDeleteThey were my grandparents. They eloped! Charles was an attorney but was not viewed by some as being of the same social status as my grandmother. So, they came home married, lived happily, and had 7 children!
