Mr.. Watkins Robards, Former
Henderson Man, WEEDS Fair
Daughter Of Capital City, Where
He Has Lived for Several Years.

There gathered last night at nine
O'Clock in Christ church, great throng
of friends to witness the taking of the
marriage vows by Mr.. William Watkins
Richards and Miss Sadie Smedes Root,
the daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Charles
Root, of this city.
The church decorations were simple
but artistic in the beauty of their very
simplicity. Back of the altar many can
dies gave radiance, and upon the white
background there was a delicate tracery
OF ferns which was very effective, while
the reserved section of the pews were
marked by great punches of white chrys-
| anthemums.
The wedding music was rendered by
Mr.. Wade R. Brown, who gave a bril-
liant program before the entrance of the
bridal party. As the professional he
hengrin. and the recessional was Mendels-
| given by Rev. Milton A. Barber, the as
sistant rector of Christ church, who was
assisted by Rev. l. Mex. Pittenger, rec
| tor of the Church of the Good Shepherd.
| The groomsmen, who entered in couples,
| were Messrs. A. B. Andrews, Dr., John
| II. Andrews. w. L. Old, of Elizabeth
City; Frank 2. Haywood, Wv. Vass,
Willis G. Briggs, George NJ. Gales, of New
York, and $. S. Parham, of Henderson.

| couples, were Misses Elizabeth Montgom-
cry. Belle Pescud, Mary Armistead ones,
Elizabeth Cheshire, Isabel Busbee, Sarah
Cheshire, Sue Robards, OF Henderson,
and Mary Pruden, of Edenton They
were each attired in white tulle and car
ried bouquets OF white chrysauthemums.
The maid of honor was Miss Annie
Root, sister of the bride, and she W as at
tired in pink net over pink silk. her bou-
quet beiug of bridesmaid roses.
The bride entered on the arm of her
father, Mr.. Charles Root, and was given
away by him. She was charmingly
gowned in hand embroidered satin chit
fon, trimmed with duchesse lace, her veil
OF tule being caught up with orange
blossoms. She carried a shower bouquet
OF lilies Of the valley. At the chancel she
was met by Mr.. Robards, who entered
from the vestry room with his best man,
his brother, Mr. Frank B. Richards, OF
Henderson.
Following the wedding the bridal
party and members OF the families were
given a delightful reception at the home
OF Mr.. and Mrs. Root on Hillsboro street,
and after this Mr.. and Mrs. Richards left

The bride is among Raleighs most at
tractive and cultured young women, her

How | Cured SWeenY and FistuIa.

Il want to tell you how I saved one
OF our horses that had fistula. Wehad
the horse doctor out and he said it was
so bad that he did not think he could
cure it, and did not come again. Then
we tried Sloan's Liniment and it cured
it up nicely.
Zone day last spring | was blowing
for a neighbor who had a horse with
sweeny, and | told him about Sloan's
Liniment and he had me get a bottle for
him, and it cured his horse all right, and
he goes off now like colt.
1--WE had horse that had sweeny aw-
fully bad and we thought it was never
going to be any good, but we used
Sloan's Liniment and it cured it up nicely.
| told another neighbor about it and he
said it was the best Liniment he ever
used.
I'VE are using Sloan's Sure Collie Cure
and we think it is all right.
