Young and Miss Bessie Cooke.
The handsome home of Capt.
and Mrs. j. N. Cooke, parents of
the bride, was effectively adorned
for the occasion with dainty deco
rations of asparagus, ferns and
roses; and when, in the large
double parlors, softly-swcet notes
fell from the lips Of Mrs. Bessie
Cassidy Sumrall, followed by the
wedding march under the mag
netic touch of Mrs. j. NJ. Wood,
and the bridal party appeared,
the scene presented was indeed
one fair to look upon.
The gentle, lovely bride in her
robes of shimmering white with
veil and orange blossoms, was at
tended by her young friend, Mrs.
Estelle Woelper Sexton, as ma
iron of honor, for whom a week
previous she had served as an at
tendant; by Miss Ora Young, a
beautiful sister of the groom, as
maid of honor, by Miss Fannie
Cooke, a, sister Of the bride, and
by the loveliest of little flower
girls, represented in Rachel Ham
ilton and Susie Dampeer, nieces
of the bride. Mr.. w. D. Davis
gracefully served as best man,
and so familiar has Mr.. Davis
become with the privileges of this
Office that he was second only to
the groom, in claiming a kiss
from the blushing bride.
After the ceremony, which
was impressively performed by
Rev. G. T. Chandler, pastor Of
the Presbyterian church, an ele-
CANT collation. was served to the
large company of invited guests.
Time sped all too rapidly; and it
seemed only a few, brief moments
ere the bride was attired in her
travelling dress and the goodbyes
were said.
The happy young couple left on
the first train for the home of the
groom's parents in Coplah county,
where they are spending a couple
of weeks before returning to
Brookhayen to perm anently res
ide.
The bridal gifts were of unusu-
al elegance and beauty.
There are no words to fittingly
eulogize the human character in
it's unsuIlied purity and beauty.
These rare qualities are combined
in the lives of the lovely young
bride and the groom, who has
cast not the slightest shadow upon
the honorable name he bears
through his residence OF several
years in this city. Although I'm.
consciously to himself, Mr.. Young
brought further credit to his good
name, when his heart went out in
love and longing to sweet Bessie
Cooke; and as time heightened
through months and years, il
proved at the last, there was not
half kiss to choose, which loved
the other best, " and Miss Bessie
had found life's meaning in her
lovers eyes. 1t was a real joy to
witness the sealing of the sacred
compact of two such devoted
hearts, and to realize that for each
There was but one beloved face
on earth, and that was shining
near" Naught but happiness
and a union sweet can come from
such marriage, and so one can
confidently wish for all Joy, all
peace, all prosperity, in its high
est sense, to attend the onward
| way of Mr.. and Mrs. Young.
Brookhaven will proudly continue
to claim them as residents.
