at the Methodist Church
Wednesday Evening.

Mr.. Robert L. Saville and Miss

church Wednesday evening at
O'Clock, Rev. T. E. Davenport of Lum-
Der City, brother-in-law of the bride,
officiating. Mr.. and Mrs. Saville left
on the 9 p. m. Central train for an ex-

The church vas most tastefully and
appropriately decorated for the occa-
sion with graceful vines and ever.
greens twined about the altar rail,
within which were banked quantities
of palms, ferns and rare potted plants.
In the network of green that encircled
the railing back of the pulpit and in
front OF the organ loft numerous tiny
electric lights shone like myriad stars.
adding to the brilliSnce and beauty of
the scene. Suspended from the cleo
trio chandelier in front of the altar
was an exqulsitely fashioned marriage
bell under which the bridal pair stood
as they plighted their trOth.
Promptly at the appointed hour the
sweet-toned pipe organ under the skill
full touch of Mrs. Walter A. Baldwin
pealed forth the glad notes of Mendel-
sohn's wedding march, and all eyes
were directed towards the front doors

entering. The attendants and brides
maids proceeded with measured steps
down the aisles, the following consti-
tuting the group:
Mr.. Frank Sherman with Miss Elo-
Use Cooke, Mr.. j. M. Bell with Miss
Lille Cheatham, Mr.. j. B. Kendrick
with Miss Florence Statham, Mr.. j.
A. Shields with Miss Marie Cheatham
of Savannah, Mr.. K. S. Worthy with
Miss Cleo Archer of Waycross, Mr..
M. Nj. Lowrey with Miss Araminta
Culpepper of Thomasville.
Miss Efie May Pearce, a charming
and lovely young woman of Columbus,
was maid of honor, and right graceful
ly did she discharge the duties of her
station.
The bride-to-be entered the church
leaning on the arm of her brother
Leon A.Lowrey. Esq, of Chicago, and
she was the cynosure of all eyes as she
approached the marriage altar, for
THERE was never seena lovelier maiden
than this one over whose fair form
the exquisite bridal veil fell in grace
full folds. AS the couple neared the
altar there entered the church
through the east door the happy
groom attended by his best man, Mr..
B. M. Webb of Atlanta. In front of
the chancel and underneath the large
marriage bell Miss Lowrey and MIR.
Saville met, and here as they stood
arm in arm the solemn marital VOWS
were taken, soft and mellow strains
from the organ mingling with the
well-spoken words of the officiating
clergyman and the responses of the
contracting couple. The ceremony be-
ing ended, the bridal party and num-
Der of special friends and relatives re-
paired to the home Of the grooms sis
ter, Mrs. Crockett Baldwin, on Church
street, where they were most delight
fully and Hospitality entertained at an
informal reception. The lower floor
was thrown into one room and the dec

elaborate.
The color scheme was as follows:
The library was in red, the parlor in
white and the dining room in white
and green, the entire effect being ex.
ceedinglY attractive and in exquisite
taste. The table at which the bridal
party were seated and on which deli
cious refreshments we're served was in
the shape of huge heart, and was
suggestive in its shape of what the
happy pair each had won and also that
all were heartily welcomed by the
charming hostess.
All went as merry as a marriage
bell during the happy hours which
the guests spent there, and at nine
O'Clock goodbyes were spoken.
The legions of friends of Mr.. and
Mrs. Saville wish that their lives, so
auspiciously joined, may be one of con-
tinued happiness, and The News joins
