The following one to his sister, Mrs. Quig-

Entertainments.
GRAND OPERA HOUSE.

A large house greeted Edgar Selden, who
opened for the half week in 'Win o. the
Wisp" last night. A jollier Irish boy than
Selden, or one with a truer brogue or
sweeter voice, speaking or singing, is hard
to find. The company is good and the play
is typical Irish drama, with plenty of
heroism and pathos.
The "old abbey" scene is one of rare
beauty and was greeted with rounds of
applause. Manager Daniel Shelby is in
the city experimenting the production of
the play.

A Happy Marriage.

EDITORS INTELL1aENCER: Six miles
below Easley, in the upper part of Ander-
son County, stands the beautiful residence
of Mr.. John r. Henderson. About one
mile from this place stands another ele-
CANT dwelling, owned by Mr.. E. S. Pepper.
At the former residence many neigh ghbors
and friends gathered last Thursday even
ing to witness the marriage ceremony of
Oscar, eldest son of Mr.. E. S. Pepper, and
Miss Jessie, eldest daughter of Mr.. John
r. Henderson.
The parlor was becomingly decorated
with evergreens. At G p. m. the attendants
en- ntered the parlor in the following order:
Mr.. Ross Henderson and Miss Emma AL
good, Mr.. Enoch Gambrell and Miss Nora
Smith. Then came the bride leaning on
the arm Of the groom. Before them stood
the Rev. D. Weston Hiott, who, after q
short ceremony, pronounced Oscar Pepper
and Jessie Henderson husband and Wife.
When congratulations were over, supper
was ANNOUNCED, and supper it was
everything that could be desirea-and
those present seemed to do full justice to
the occasion. AS tho hours whirled away
sweet music was made by Miss Emma
Algood and Mrs. Oscar Pepper, the bride.
We didn't have The pleasure Of being
present at Mr.. Peppers at the Unfair, but
from what we know Of the family, we are
satisfied that those who attended had de-
lightful time. This marriage united two
families who are among the wealthy and
prosperous families of upper Anderson.
May peace, happiness and prosperity be
their portion on earth, and rest, sweet
happy rest, in Heaven. D. w. I'll.

We regret that Anderson County was
not also given an extension of time in
paying taxes. Usually we would not favor
the extension, but just now the price of
cotton is so low that many people do not
want to sell yet, aud cannot pay their taxes
without selling their cotton or borrowing
the money. This is one year we would
favor it. If the rest Of the State has it, let
Anderson have it, too.
