Has Home Wedding

   Miss Emma L. Gilliland became the wife of Melville P. Meyer at one of the pretty weddings of the week. The ceremony took place Wednesday evening at the home of the bride in Twenty-seventh street, Oakland. Doctor Chase officiated. 
   The bride wore a Parisian gown of white satin and crepe. The costume was finished with a long tulle veil. She wore a coronet of orange blossoms and carried a bouquet of lilies of the valley. 
   After an informal reception Mr. and Mrs. Meyer departed on a wedding journey, planning several weeks’ visit to New York and other eastern cities. They will return late in July to the home that awaits them in Oakland. 
   Melville Meyer is prominent in commercial affairs and is retail sales manager for the Nathan Dohrmann company, in whose employ he has been for 18 years. He has a host of friends, who have extended their congratulations since his wedding.
