the evening of the 9TH inst, when DR..
Kirby Hewlett and Miss Make Perry
came over from Bigbyville, whore they
were married, to attend the reception
given them by the parents Ofthe groom.
The wedding took place in the Metho-
dist Church, at Bigbyville, which was
darkened for the occasion, and, long
before the appointed hour, the brilliant
lights shone upon a sea OF faces of inter-
ested friends, gathered to witness the
contamination of the marriage VOWS.
Precisely at II o'clock, the tiutter Of
tongues was hushed to silence, and the
arrival of the bridal party was tele-
graphed in whispers and signs across
The aisles and rows. In deliberate and
Of wedding march, by Miss Minnie
