surprises, for such was the marriage
of Miss Frances Andrews and Mr..
Archie Lewis which took place last
Tuesday evening in the home of
the brides uncle, Mr.. James White.
Rev. w. S. Brooke performed the
ceremony which was witnessed by
only the immediate family of the
groom and few warm friends of
the bride. The bride was making
all arrangements to leave for Win
throp college on the evening train,
but was persuaded to discontinue
her career as a student and have the
marriage take place. The happy
pair left on the evening train for a
short wedding tour. The bride is
the daughter of Mrs. Lille Andrews
who is now living in Tennessee but
her life with the exception of three
years has been spent in Johnston,
so her marriage is an occasion of
many happy fluctuations on the
part of every one here for she is
much loved and admired. Mr.. Lew
is is one of the towns most promiS-
ing young business men and is in
every way worthy of his bride.
