Hawkins-cooper Wedding And
Rec ption.
One of the pretties and most inter
esting of June weddings was that of
Miss Margaret Lee Hawkinks and Mr.
Ellis Bowman Cooper, of Newton,
which took place at the home of the
brides parents, Mr.. and Mrs. George
Lawrence Hawkins, on Main street
The young couple stood in a bower
of palms and ferns in the parlor, and
the entire apartment made a-pic-
turesque setting, foliage plants and
pink roses being used.
Mr.. Shelby McLennan. of Newton, was
the groom's best man, and the little
cousin of the bride. Miss Bessie Hell
delberg, wearing dainty hand-em-
broidered lingerie frock, was ring
bearer. carrying the ring in an enor-
nous bride rose. A pretty incident
in the ceremony was the fact that the
bride was married with the same ring
that her great great grandmother was
married with in 1875, the ring was
again used by the grandmother and
mother of the bride at their marriage.
The ceremony was performed by
Rev. I. W. Cooper. of Brookhaven,
father of the groom, and Miss Lois
Cooper, sister of the groom, played
softly at the plano during the cere-
mony.
The brides gown was a beautiful
one Of ivory white crepe de chine, en-
train. trimmed in rose point lace, and
her veil was held in place with chiffon
