MORsE-WIER.

A wedding that was beautiful IN
every detail and of interest to wide
circle of friends, was that Of Miss
jamie Morse, the popular and lovely
daughter of Mr.. Amos B. Morse, and
Mr.. Van Noy Wier, Of Athens, Ga.
The ceremony took place at 9 o'clock
on Thursday evening, at the home OF
the bride on North Main street, and
was witnessed by the young friends
of the couple and the relatives Of
the two families. Miss Margaret
Burton of Newberry, presided at the
piano, playing Medley of old love
songs Just before the entrance of the
bridal party.
Promptly at the appointed hour
little Misses Emily Morse and Sarah
Smith, sister and cousin of the bride,
in dainty dresses of pink organdy,
entered to the strains of Lohengrin's
March, holding ribbons through which
the others passed. First, Misses Oney
and Cara Morse, then Miss Mamie
Morse, sisters of the bride, gowned
in exquisite dresses of white net and
lace and carrying pink Killarney
roses. The groom and his best man,
Mr.. Lythgoe Wier Of Athens, enter
ed from the side, the bride entering
on the arm of her father, who gave
her in marriage, meeting at the altar.
During the ring ceremony, which
was impressively performed by Rev.
H. Waddell Pratt, the brides pas
tor, Miss Burton played softly Listz's
Dream of Love.
The bride never looked love-
lier than she did in her handsome
wedding gown of soft satin and
duchess lace, the graceful train fall
ing from the shoulders. and her veil
caught with orange blossoms. Her
bouquet was of bride roses shower
with valley lilies and she wore the
groom's gift, a necklace of pearls.
In the parlor where the ceremony
took place, an altar was improvised
with ferns for a background and
pedestals topped with vases of white
carnations made an artistic arch
under which the bride and groom
stood.
An informal reception followed
the ceremony.
In the dining room the decorations
were in pink and white. Mr.. and
Mrs. A. NJ. Smith welcomed tha
guests here and cake and ice cream
was served during\the evening by
Misses Mary and Jeanie White, Hell
en- and Grace Milford, Elizabeth
Thomson and jamie Vance Bowie.
The library was attractive with dec
orations of bright autumnal flowers.
Mr.. and Mrs. j. Allen Smith, Jr., re-
ceived, and in this room the beauti-
full wedding gifts of silver, cut glass,
china and bric-a-brac were displayed.
Miss Mary Perrin and Miss Mamie
Morse served punch at one end Of
the spacious veranda and Mr.. and
Mrs. T. G. White received.
About midnight the bride and
groom left to spend thsir honey
moon in the mountains of North
Carolina, making the trip by auto
mobile. On their return they will go
at once to Athens to make their fu-
ture home, the groom being a pros
porous business man Of that city. 1t
is with sincere regret that the friends
of the bride see her leave her old
home where, by her sweet personal
ity she has endeared herself to-
scores of fiends.
