The Washington Post, Of Monday.
contained an article telling Of the
crowds of people that thronged the
White House grounds during inaugu-
ration week. The following paragraph
from the article will be read with es-
pecial interest, for the little girl refer
red to is Miss Nellie, daughter Of Mr..
and Mrs. G. w. s. Hart, Of this place:
When the president and Mrs. McKin-
ley went for their drive in the after
noon, a portion Of the visitors always
had their desire to see the chief execu-
tive gratif1ed. A crowd waited each
day at the front portico, and when the
ringing Of the bell announced that the
president and Mrs. Mckinley were
starting for their carriage, the attend
ants would line the visitors up on each
side Of the doorway, leaving an open
passage to the carriage. AS the presi-
dent came out, with Mrs. Mckinley on
his arm, the hats Of the men would
come off. and Mr.. Mckinley removing
his own hat, acknowledged their bows.
Mrs. Mckinley would also bow graci-
ously to the women, and Friday after
noon she made mother supremacy
nappy by pausing a moment to caress
little child The incident occurred
just as Mrs. Mckinley was entering
her carriage. A little girl with curly
hair, stood clinging to her mothers
hand, and gazing with eyes full OF awe
at the first lady Of the land. When Mrs.
Mckinley noticed the child she reach
ed out her hand and earessed her
cheek affectionately. All the awe in
stantly left the eyes Of the little girl,
and she smiled back at the wife Of the
president with sympathetic under
standing"
A4 very pretty home wedding was
solemnized at the home Of Major Jas.
F. Hart on Tuesday afternoon last,
when Miss Mary Elizabeth Hart, the
youngest daughter OF Major Hart, was
married to Mr.. Walton Samuel Neil.
The ceremony took place at half-past
S o'clock and was performed by the
Rev. w. G. Neville, the pastor Of the
bride and groom. The house was taste
fully decorated with hot house plants
and roses The bridal couple was pre-
ceded by the ushers, Messrs. Wilderp
Neil,i Robert Steele and John Hart.
Next came the bridesmaids, Misses
Minnie Steele, Claude Moore, Jessie
Neil, Annie Watson, Sudie Allison and
Linda White. Miss Margaret Hart,
the brides sister, was the maid Of hon
or. After her came the groom on the
arm Of his best man, DR.. Mcdowell,
and then the bride with her father.
The minister stood in the front Of the
parlor, where an exquisite arch of ever
green's and roses had been erected, and
before him knelt the couple whom he
pronounced man and wife. The girl
friends Of the bride had gone to great
pains to decorate the rooms, and with
the pink shaded lights and the brides
maids gowned in pink, the effect was
very pretty. Miss Mary Schorb rem
dered the ever beautiful Mendelssohn
Wedding March in perfect sympathy
with the occasion. The bride wore
heavy white silk with veil and carried
bouquet Of lilies of the valley. The
maids carried bouquets Of pink and
white carnations. Altogether 1t was a
beautiful and impressive home we'd
ding.
