A Beautiful Country Wedding.
Correspondence of The Daily Nows.

Vi Inc l)dlly NoWS,
POWER, s. c., Nov. 1G.-In New Har,
mony church q large crowd assembled
on Wednesday evening, November
10Th, 1893, to witness the marriage of
Robert Bryson and Miss Sallic Stod-
dard.
The church was beautifully decora-
NUNS, exhibiting the exquisite taste
of the decorators. The ushers walked
in and assumed their respective posi-
tions, then the bride and groom mar
ched up the aisle, preceded by two
lovely little girls dressed in white
with cOronets of white c~hrysanthe-
NUNS, carryin baskets of the same
and strewing them in the way. The
bride and groom took their position
under an arch of snowy flowers, facing
the waiting minister, the Rev: r. B.
Craig; who was in his happiest frame
OF mind, and as he, with that modesty
and gracefulness so characteristic of
his acts, spoke the words which bound
together for ever and aye two loving
hearts, they sounded very sweet and
impressive.
The brides dress was of some light
material; elegant in simplicity, but ex-
tremely stylish. She wore no ornaments
save Il single white chrysanthemum in
her hair and bosom.
Immediately aftor the rem the
bride and groom entered their carri-
age and were driven to the house of
the brides father where they remained
during the night, and early the next
morning took the train for Augusta.
Mr.. Bryson is n OF those eXcept-
tionly good fellow" who richly Nor
tied all the kind words and good wishes
showered on him when he joined hands
with Miss Stoddard, and there, sur
rounded by numerous relatives and
friends, amid the bowers of sweet seem
ted flowers, gave his heart into the
keeping Of his charming bride who In
turn pledged herself to be true ''until
death should separate"
In choosing Miss Stoddard for a
bride Mr. Bryson was certainly guided
by rare judgment, and in her he has
won a lady who will grace his home
and table with q rap charm, and will
win the respect and kindest regards of
all who may be so fortunate as to come
within the radius of the sunbeam of
her genial smile, proverbial kindness
OF heart and accomplishments of mind.
May their f~uture'iife be happy and
hallowed, even as tho Joy of angels,
and may their home beSone "where
the golden chain Of godliness Is en-
twined with the roses OF ldye. Green
