amid the good wishes Of their friends
DR.. and Mrs. Black left for 1908 First
Avenue South, where they will be
domiciled until leaving for their fu-
ture home in Little Rock Ark.
Mrs. Black is the Oldest daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. A. w. Brown and
during her short young ladyhood has
made an enviable record in Nashville
educational circles. Less than a
month after graduating from Pearl
High School with Valedictory honors,
she was elected teacher in the Nash
vile Public schools, in which pro-
fession she acquitted herself credita-
bly, up to the time of her marriage.
DR.. Black comes from widely
known and highly respected family
of Newport, Ark. His father, P. W.
Black, is a very prosperous farmer,
general merchant and ginner Of that
place.
Besides graduating from Meharry
Medical College, Glass 1917, with high
honors, he is also graduate from the
A. B. course of Philander-Smith Col
lege, Little Rock, Ark. He is young
man of exceptional ability and sterling
qualities.
At present he is intern and chief
assistant to DR.. j. A. Mcmillan, the
popular surgeon. It is with regret
that their many friends learn they
will make their home in a distant
city Immediately upon completion OF
DR.. Blacks intern work at Cottage
Hospital.

Promptly at p. M, to the strains
of Mendelsohnn's Wedding March,
played by Miss E. Leon Saunders, the

on the arm of her future husband.

illness in her wedding gown, which

was further enhanced by beautiful side
draperies of white silk lace. She car
ried an exquisite shower bouquet OF
White Killarney Roses, Lilies of the
Valley and Ferns, from which tulle
streamers gracefully hung. Her we'd
ding veil was crowned with a Juliet
cap encircled with a wreath of orange
blOssomes.
The groom was costumed in con-
ventional black broadcloth. After the
ceremony, tn ehappy couple received
