Common Pleas Court.

The fall term of the court Of conf

together and prepared a roster Of
the cases on the calendar in the Or

before the court. There were in all
sixteen cases. The roster scheduled,
four for Monday, three for Tuesday.
three for Wednesday, two for Thurs
day, three for Friday and one for
Saturday.
The venire of 36 jurymen from
all sections of the county were on
hand and answered to their names
at roll call. Some eighteen or twen-
ty witnesses had been subpoened and
were ready for service. Judge T H
Spain was on hand as was also Court
Stenographer L E Wood. When
the Judge assembled the bench and
began calling the cases. he discover,
ed that not one was ready for trial
that is, the attorneys on one side or
the other had some excuse to offer,
and after considerable arguing
and pleading for postponement,
about 2 o'clock Judge Spain an
nounced that he would not postpone
proceedings until Wednesday, as the
expense to the county would be too
great. Then he discharged the jury
and adjourned the session sine de

from other towns turned out last
evening to show their interest in the
celebration of the marriage of Miss
Ruth Alice Williams, of this town,
to Mr. Edward Duncan Sallenger OF

language of society. a gold chrysan-
themum wedding" The color
scheme was white and gold; the
church was dressed in these colors,
the chancel being dressed in white,
with trailing vines of green, lighted
with dozens of wax candles and or
namented with great yellow chrys-
anthemums, like jewels in their set
tings. Down each aisle were arches
of white and green vines and the
prevailing flower.
The bridesmaids carried bouquets
of magnificent yellow chrysanthe-
NUNS.
The bridal party consisted of Mr.
E S Boney of the News and Courier,
best man, and Miss Mamie Green, of
Lake City, maid of honor.
The couples in their order of en-
trance were:
Miss Annie Pryor, of Chester, with
Mr. Marion Lucas, of Florence.

with MIR Ashton Williams. the bro
ther of the bride.
Miss Elise Bates, of Batesburg,
with Mr. Eugene S Oliver, Of Flor
ence.
Miss Addie Rollins, Of Lake City,
with MIR William A Livingston, Of
Charleston.

ring bearer.
The flower girls were little Misses
Sadie McElveen and Ethel Epps.
The ribbon girls were little Misses
Roberta Hazleton, Kathleen Ne
smith, Marguerite Rickenbaker and
Julia Brooks Nesmith.
| The ushers were Mr. Chas Green,
Mr. ] C Williams and DR. c D Rol-
lins, of Lake City, and MIR Mason c

from the old English church and
was performed by Rev c G Derrick,
the pastor of the bride and her fam
lily. .
A very delightful reception had
been held at the home of the bride
the preceding evening, and last night
there was a most delightful dance
at the new hotel, the Halcyon, where
