.nesday evening, Nov. 6, 1901 at
5: 80 P. NJ. the Rev. Louis Tucker
officiating, MIR David ingram Nor

Barrow, daughter of the late
Hon. J. J. Barrow of this parish.
A wedding is an event about
which only sunshine, material and
spiritual, should linger. Then, if
at all the sun should shine, the
winds lie at lest, the flowers bloc
in their season, and all nature be i'll
tune and human affairs also should
conform in harmony and joy. Es-
pecialy should this 1e true when such
a noble couple as David ingram Nor
wood and Margaret IIeake Barrow
plan to unite their lives. But a
series of nntoward circumstances,
serious Illness in the brides family
and consequent absence of many
near friends and relatives, tended
to overshadow all event, which
should have been as brilliant and
gay as an occasion so solemn can
we'll he. But as it was, a note OF
sadness, ir no wise IL part OF IN"
real nature of the affair, rested up
ON the marriage scene, and slllote
the heart like the refrain of some
pure sweet song of life set in a
minor key. But this need be no
presage ofill, but rather an earnest
that they begin life together with a
HIGH sense, brfilting their cIlarac-
ters, of their duties and RESPONSE
bilities.
There never was a sweeter bride
entered Grace church, than when
the first notes of 9 wedding march
were sounded ana the doors open
ed and she came in, her arm lightly
resting on the arm of the groom
Like some graceful white lily she
WAS. and her fair hair shining
through the mist of the wedding
yeil-the gold dust of the blossom
Her gown was of sheerest white
organdie over organdie, made eli
traine. The entire surface OF tn
skirt was tucked in exquiSitely small
tucks to where it met the accordI
pleated hounce, which was put d
with dainty ruches. The corsag
was also tucked with yoke of blon
audblond lace on the scarf drape
unon it. The veil was becomingl
arranged and caught to the sol
coils of her hair by diamond pm
A White rose rested ON her bosom
| and she carried a bouquet of viii
