two prominent young people, Rev.

which took place at the home of the
brides parents, Mr.. and Mrs. E. l..
Brady, Tuesday, the 9th, inst, at high
noon.
Besides the immediate family and
near relatives of the bride, only Mr..
Holt Rowan, brother of the groom,
and a few special friends were pres
ent.
The hall, the stairway and the
double parlors were beautifully and
artistically decorated with palms,
ferns, trailing green vines and fes-
toons of asparagus ferns and roses.
Two jardiniere stands filled with ex-
quisite white chrysanthemums Orna-
mented two corners of the front
parlor and midway between which
the bridal party stood during the
ceremony. Prominent among the
floral decorations was a large vase of
beautiful daisies which were observed
as being especially appropriate to the
bride.
Promptly at the appointed hour,
and to the sweet and inspiring strains
of the Bridal March from Lohengrin,
the bridal party descended the stairs,
led by the maid of honor, Miss Laura
Penney, cousin of the bride, immedi-
ately followed by the groom and his
brother and best man, Mr.. II. Rowan;
then came the bride on the arm Of
her father. They proceeded slowly
and quietly across the hall, through
the back parlor and into the front
parlor where awaited them the min
lister, Dean Percy j. Robottom, who
read the beautiful and impressive
ceremony of the Episcopal church
which made the young couple man
and wife.
The bride wore a handsome and
very becoming travelling coat suit of
catawba cloth with hat to match,
and carried large bouquet of roses
and asparagus ferns.
The maid of honor was charmingly
attired in a white panama coat suit,
large hat with ostrich plume and al
grets, and carried bouquet of white
chrysanthemums. The groom and
his best man wore the usual black.
The bride, more charming, use
full and attractive young woman than
whom has never grown up in and
graced our little city, has ever been
ready to lend her dainty hand and
cultured mind to the many worthy
causes in which she was intrusted.
She numbers her friends by her ac-
quaintances wherever SHE goes, and
will be greatly missed here in her
home, her church, her club and by her
many friends who wish for her all the
blessings and happiness that this life
can bring in her new surroundings.

noble and useful career in his chosen
grand profession. He is in charge of

esteemed, and to which place he re-
turns with his bride TO begin their
