Taylor-Ehrhardt.


The misty dews of summer fell,
On natures verdant face,
The season for the marriage bell,
Is drawing fast apace.
Yon crescent moon last week did
shine,
On cupid's mystic darts,
The silken cords were made to twine,
Around two faithful hearts.
July 18th ushered in one of the
happiest events which the town of
Newberry ever witnessed, when Mrs.
Alma Taylor gave in holy matrimony
her amiable daughter, Alma, to Mr..
Herbert Wilson Ehrhardt, of Ehr-
hardt. This indeed was a glorious
occasion as we'll as social event.
Hymen, with his silken chain, has
again made two souls with but a
single thought, two hearts to beat as
one.
The solmen rites were performed by
the Rev. J. E. Carlisle, pastor of Gen.
trail Methodist church, at the home
of the brides mother.
Promptly at $3.50 O'Clock Lohen-
grin's wedding march was heard,
by Miss Lucy Hill, of Newberry, and
slowly descending the stairway came
the bridal party as follows: Rev.
Carlisle leading followed by the love
ly bridesmaids. Next came the groom
accompanied by his lest man, Mr..
]. B. Ehrhardt, followed by two flow
er bearers who scattered rose petals
in the pathway of the bride. Last,
but not least, came the bride and her
maid of honor, Miss Louise Taylor.
The bridesmaids were: Misses
Rena Reeder and Sara White, while
Mrs. w. H. Casson acted as dame of
honor. Miss Reeder wore dress of
marquisette over pink while Miss
White was dressed in pink satin.
The maid of honor wore a dress of
blue crepe de chine while the bride
was beautifully gowned in white
marquisette with macrame lace trim
mings.
The house had been handsomely
decorated for the occasion. The par
lor was decorated with smilax and
yellow roses. The drawing room
contained an immense display of val
uble presents which proved the pop
ularity of the young couple
After the ceremony the guests
were invited to the spacious dining
room where refreshments were serv-
ed.
Miss Taylor was one of Newberry's
most popular young ladies and we
feel sure that it will feel loss at her
departure. Mr.. Ehrhardt is an ener-
getic young business man of Ehr-
hardt.
The out-of-town guests were: Mrs.
Chas. Ehrhardt, Miss Edrie Ehrhardt,
Messrs J. B. Ehrhardt and Henry
Copeland, of Ehrhardt; Misses Lucille
Epting and Helen Heightman and
Mr.. NJ. J. Epting, of Savannah; Mrs.
w. H. Casson, Mr.. and Mrs. Newn-
ham and children, Mr.. and Mrs.
r. C. Williams, and Miss May
Plumer, of Columbia; Mr.. and Mrs.
W. E. Pitt, of Baltimore; Miss Ber-
tha Wadsley, of Spartanburg, and
Miss Sara White, of Clinton.
Mr.. and Mrs. Ehrhardt have acted
the part of wisdom by laying aside
the robes of celibacy and joining the
hymenial hosts who have entered the
elysian fields of conjugal bliss. We
welcome the young couple to our
midst and to the young benedict and
his lovely bride we extend our hearth
est congratulations, and may their
barge, which is now launched upon
the ocean of welded life, glide on
like a clear limpid stream to a haven
of peace ad happiness, without a
reef to ripple it's surface, nor break
er, to mar is peaceful voyage. May
there be just enough thorns along the
pathway of life to remind them of
flowers blooming along its way.
