The nuptials had been planned to
take place in July but the young
people accompanied party Of friends
to vicksburg last Thursday and con-
cluded to take advantage of the OPP
portunity.
Mrs. Claude Kelley is the winsome
daughter of DR.. and Mrs. 8. A. Turpin,
of distinguished ancestry long promi-
nent in the central section of the State.
She has grown to young womsnhood
in Rolling Fork and: by her friendly,
kindly disposition she has won all
hearts. Since her debut she has been
very popular in social circles and has
been much admired. But while cul
tivating the social graces she has not
neglected those domestic accomplish
ments which are the foundation of q
happy home. That the sunshine of
happiness may ever shed its rays
upon her is the sincere wish of The
Pilot, and we voice the sentiment of
the entire community.
Claude Kelley ia one of "ours."

family long identified with the in
terests OF Shsrkey county, he has
grown to manhood among as. He is
a valued employee of j. E. Meek's
Drugstore, and by his natural ability,
his courtesy and accommodation to all
kinds and conditions of men, and
particularly the ladies, he has become
one of the most widely known and
universally esteemed young men in

lations are extended him on winning
his fair bride, of whom he is worthy,

much interest by the many friends of
the bride in this parish, who re-
member her as only little girl when
she left Waterproof some years ago.

A number of people throughout the

Saturday night by a dark and omnibus
looking cloud, accompanied by high
wind, which for awhile assumed
threstning velocity, and many got up

proved to be only buster and soon
passed, followed by slight sprinkle,
