For the benefit of the PRESBYTERIAN
Church will be given at the Calhoun
Institute on Thursday night, May Isl.
Our people have always responded lib
orally to the call made by the various
denominations for pecuniary aid. We
predict that the present instance will
not be an exception. Our Presbyteri-
an friends have not for a number OF
years undertaken to raise funds by a
public entertainment. and We there
fol hope that the approaching concert
may be largely attended. In addition
to the best musical talent in our town.
Mrs. Anna llolbcrg, who will direct
the musical performances. will have the
assistance of Miss Corinne Orr, daugh-
ter of Hon. j. a. Orr. of Columbus
The Charades, TablcauX &c, will be
under the immediate supervision Of
Prof. George r. Klinkhard.

MAhRIED-On the evening of We'd
p nesday the 23d. inst mt The Cntho,i,
. Nhareh Of this place, by The Rev. p. G.
/, hayden, Pastor, MIR. John Grace, and
Miss Mollle Cahill, both of A.acon.
This wedding excited a good deal
ol lhterest from the fact of its BEING
inc first marriage ever celebrated in
inns place in accordance with the cerc-
monies of the Catholic Chnrch.
some time before the hour appointed
Tor the marriage, the Church was bril-
liantly lighted and filed to overflow
ing with expectmt que IS. to the mum.
Der OF abont three hundred.
Attic hour appointed $3.50 o'clock
the bride and groom, preceded by
three couples of bridesmaids and
groomsmen entered the Church in pro-
cesslon and took up a position at the
altar railing. After a few appropriate
remarks by Father HAYDEN ON the
Sanctity of the vow about to be taken
tlc impressive ceremonies were rome
through with and the parties pro-
n0uncad man and wife. One pecnli-
arity in which the ceremony d irered
from that Of the other churches here
was, the blessing of the wedding rino
which as wa well explained bv Fa-
ther Hayden, symbolized the nnion
between man and wife, representing
that they should be one in spirit and
purposes.
After the marriage the bridal party
returned to the home of the brides
father, Mr.. p. +. Cahill and cnioved
the refreshments and hospitable atten-
tons of the family until II late hour.
Both the bride and groom are well
known in Macon, and the congratula-
tions received at the hands of their
many friends could scarcely be added
to by us yet we most heartily congrat-
uIate them and hope that the prac-
teal realities of life will never mar
their mutual attachment. Nav their
lot in life be cast in pleasant places and
may their roses always be free from
thorns.
