Miss Agnes Gertrude Cady a Bride.

(Globe-Democrat)

An interesting wedding of yesterday morning was the marriage of Miss Agnes Gertrude Cady, granddaughter of the late Judge Charles Frederick Cady of St. Louis, and Joseph Scott McNutt. The ceremony was performed in the home of Mr. and Mrs. James William Caldwell, 4119 McPherson avenue. The affair was quiet and the couple dispensed with attendants. William R. Cady gave his sister in marriage, and Rev. Father Tucker of the St. Louis Cathedral officiated.

The bride wore a becoming traveling costume fashioned of brown cloth, with satin hat to match trimmed with satin flowers in the same brown tones. She wore orchids in her corsage.

Mr. McNutt and his bride departed for the East to pass their honeymoon, and because of their train leaving at noon, the wedding breakfast preceded the ceremony. They will spend the summer at Ogonquit, Me., and will return to St. Louis in autumn to make their home.

The bride has been supervisor of dancing for the city and has directed the playgournd productions each year at Forest Park for the past nine years. Mr. McNutt is a portrait painter. He is a graduate of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Harvard University and formerly resided in Boston, but has lived in St. Louis for a few years.
