John C. Long's Bride a Girl He Met
While in Europe.

ISLAND HEIGHTS, N. J., Dec. 11 -- (Special.) A romance that began on the other side of the Atlantic was consummated here today, when Miss Bertha Wood, daughter of Mrs. Mary M. Wood, was married at the home of her mother to John C. Long of Kansas City, Mo.

Rev. John A. Oakes of the Island Heights M. E. Church, performed the ceremony. After the wedding dinner the young couple left for Missouri, where the groom has a cozy home waiting for the bride.

Mrs. Long is an artist of some note and is the sister of Charles King Wood, who is known as an artist and one of the heads of the Red Cross work in this country and in Europe. It was while abroad that the young people met and the romance began.
