WEDDINGS are always interesting events
in the social circle, especially when the
bride has been prominent belle, loved
and respected in the community, and the
groom is a stranger but a young man who
is highly recommended for integrity and
successful business qualifications. 1t was
not, therefore, surprising that consider
able interest has been manifested for the
past three weeks at the contemplated
wedding between Mr.. Charles G. Fleming,
of New York, and Miss Effie B. Davis, OF
this city. The ceremony took place at the
early hour of o'clock at the residence of
Mr.. M. III. Coover, 150 Adams street, who
is stepfather to the bride. The wedding
was very quiet, only the relatives and few
select friends OF the family being present.
There were no attendants, and as the con-
tracing parties were to take their departure
on the Memphis and Charleston railroad at
7:45 o'clock the ceremony had to be con-
Quoted with great promptness. The bridal
couple entered the parlor near the time
designated, and the ceremony was per.
formed by the Rev. DIR. George White
with his usual impressiveness and with
some emotion, as the bride was a favorite
whom he had made a member of the
Episcopal Church. After receiving
the cordial congratulations of those
present the happy couple, accompanied
by few friends, were hurriedly driven to
the depot and left for Macon, Ca, and
thence to New York. The presents were
numerous and valuable, and elected much
admiration from the guests. The bride
was born and raised in Memphis, her
father prior to his death being conspicu-
GUS Front street merchant. Since the
bride graduated at school she has been a
prominent belle of the city, and she leaves
the home of her youth carrying with her
the hope of the entire community that
her future life may be one OF unailoyed
happiness. The groom was born in Macon,
Ca, where he and his relatives occupy a
high social position. Mr.. Fleming's great
business capacity attracted the attention
of the New York Underwriters, who Sc
cured his services, which are now regarded
as invaluable and indispensable.
