A Chrysanthemum Wedding.
Davis


Cupid has been shooting his darts
promiscuously in this vicinity. One
took flight and found a resting place
in two sincere hearts. On the 23d of
November, at $50 o'clock, Craddock-
vile Church was the scene of a very
pretty marriage, the contracting par
ties being Mr.. Charles B. Dayis and
Miss Mamie B. Mason.
Artistic hands had decorated the
church with chrysanthemums and
evergreen arches. While the wedding
march was being rendered by Mrs. A.
Louise Copes, floral gate was open
ed by the BRIDES nephew, little Stan
ley Mears, through which the bridal
party passed, and then the ushers,
Messrs. Roger West, Clyde Bull, NAL
colin Kellam, and j. Warwick Ames
took their respective stands.
The bridesmaids, who wore Persian
lawn carrying bouquets of chrysan-
themums, were Misses Lillian Elmore,
Loleta Boggs, Mary Mosely, Lola
Duer, Virgie Kellam, Minnie Wise,
Lucille Boggs, Lillian Jacob, Bertha
Ames, o. James Humphreys, Ruth
Watson, Nellie Mears and Mary by
slop, and the groomsmen were DR..
Sidney Kellam, Messrs. Charles Ell
more, Wilde Kellam, Frank Smith,
James Watson, Forest Davis, Willie
Mason, Will Hopkins, Walter Jones,
James Downing, Sam Mock, Willie
Waters and John Davis. Following
the bridesmaids and groomsmen the
flower girls, little Sadie Mears and
Virginia Johnson, entered laden with
flowers. The groom wearing the con-
ventional black came in leaning on
the arm of his best man, Mr.. Charlie
Mason, and then came the maid OF
honor, Miss Ella Davis. The bride,
who was attired in white silk carrying
bride roses and asparagus ferns, en-
tered resting on the arm of her broth
err, DR., E. T. Mason, who gave her
away. Rev. R. o. Payne met them
under an arch of evergreen and pro-
nounced them man and wife.
After the ceremony the bridal pro-
cession and quite number of guests
assembled at Ayresly, the home OF
the BRIDES sister, Mrs. G. G. Kelley,
where a sumptuous repast was served.
The following evening reception was
given at Beechland the residence OF
