Wilson. .WyIie.
Rock Hill Record, June %: The
marriage at Lancaster yesterday Of
Mr.. w. H. Wylie, Jr., ("Pat") and
surprise here. Apparently no one
knew Of the impending event save the
happy pair, and friends in Lancaster,
maybe. Miss Wilson was a guest of
the Misses Jones, daughters Of Chief
Justice Ira B. Jones, and 1t Is more
than likely that these young ladies
were in the secret. The happy bride
is a daughter Of Mr.. and Mrs. w.
Blackburn Wilson, while the lucky
groom is a son Of Mr.. and Mrs. w.
Harry Wylie. The ceremony was per-
formed about 10 o'clock yesterday
morning at the Baptist pastorium by
Rev. DR.. Boldridge, the pastor there,
the happy couple at once returning
to the residence of Judge Jones. La
ter in the day they left Lancaster for
Lockhart, near Spartanburg, where
young Wylie holds a position in the
Lockhart Mills.
Joseph Nunnery Dead.
Chester Reporter, Thursday: Hon.
Joseph Nunnery, ex-legislator and
one of Chester county's best known
citizens, died at his home near Wy
lies mill last night at twelve o'clock.
He had been in failing health for sew
eral years, and for the last two
months his condition has been criti-
cal. Bright's disease was the malady
that brought on his death. The fun
eral services will be held at the resi-
dence tomorrow morning at $50
o'clock by Rev. j. Q. Adams, of Char
lotte, pastor of Harmony Baptist
Church and the remains laid to rest
in Harmony graveyard. Mr.. Nunnery
was a prominent citizen, popular In
his own and in all other communities
of his county, and there will be
spects to his memory. Mr.. Nunnery
was in his 74th year. He was second
lieutenant in Co. A, 18th S. G. regi-
ment, and was wounded in the leg at
the battle of Second Manassas, his
wound proving so serious as to inca
pacitate him for further service. The
bullet remained imbedded In his leg
and was a lifelong reminder of Mr..
Nunnery's service in behalf OF his
country. Mr.. Nunnery married Miss
Dorothy McFadden, sister OF Mr.
John C. McFadden. She preceded
him to the grave about four years
ago, leaving two sons, Messrs. John
f.. and F. A. Nunnery. An only
daughter, the wife Of Mr.. r. H. Fer
guson, died several years ago.
New Depot For Rock Hill.
Rock Hill, June %: Indications
point to a speedy conclusion OF the
parleying preceding the building Of a
new passenger station FOR ROCK Hill.
The plans for this were received by
Mayor Roddey on Thursday, accom-
panied by a colored picture Of the new
structure and a letter from Mr.. Ackert,
the official of the Southern In charge
These plans show a commodious ana
convenient building, to be placed at the
point indicated by Rock Hill officials,
and those interested, and are on the
double deck order, which has all along
been the only one feasible. 1t Is be-
lieved by those perfectly familiar with
the growth of this city that the South
ern is making an error In not making
the plans for large building, and
thus providing for the inevitable call
for more space, which will come In
very few years. Still. the plans as
.ubmjtted are very creditable ones,
and the new station, which, 1t is esti-
mated, will cost $2S,OO0, will at least
be in keeping with the present city.
will almost front on the Carhartt
mill, and on the west side of the South
rms main line, instead Of the present
site on the east side. 1t runs up on the
north to the line Of the South Carolina
and Georgia Extension tracks, and Will
reach them by a gently sloping bag
cage run of cement, a baggage eleva-
tor and wide stairway for passengers,
while a wide shed over the upper plat
form will protect the entrance to the
cars of the cross line.
