Editor The Manning Times:
On last Wednesday evening, the 9th
inst, it was our delightful pleasure to
attend the silver wedding OF DR.. and
Mrs. r. S. Elliott. Upon entering the
home we were met by part OF the re-
ception committee, two charming young
ladies. and for few moments was
beautifully entertained with tnelr
sweet expressions and charming smiles.
Then we were ushered to the opposite
side OF the room, where beneath beau
tiful and charming decorations, placed
there by lovely and deft hands, stood
the groom and by his side the bride,
wreathed in smiles, and blushing as
no one but bride can, received the
congratulations of those present. Every
one seemed to have laid aside sell, and
the troubles of life for an evening OF
T; pleasure.
Soon we were invited down to the
dining hall, being preceded by the
bride and groom, there scene OF
beauty met US, but we were not to revel
in this long, for beneath decorations,
was a table just laden with substantials
and sweets, With sweet little soul as
partner, we took our places at the ia
Bile. and were served in a most charm
ing and elegant manner by the commit
tee, consisting in part, OF Misses Alice
and Lizzie Hodge, and MIR. E. L. Fairy.
After many soft expressions and sweet
smiles the hands upon the clock showed
that the time for saying goodnight had
come.
TWENTY-FIVE years since the words
uniting these two souls were spoken,
and since then, they have been fighting
life's battles with true devotion, and
