     On Wednesday afternoon of the 16th, inst., at the home of Mr. and Mrs. N.G. Culpepper a number of friends and relatives assembled to witness the marriage ceremony of Miss Mittie Lou Culpepper to Mr. Harry Williams Baldwin.
     Misses Nora and Lovie Culpepper received most cordially the invited guests as they assembled. Just as father time was announcing the hour of three, the bridal party marched into the parlor, where a most beautiful ceremony was performed by Elder D.F. Woodall.
     
The color schemes of pink and white were simply, but beautifully carried out. The flower girls, Janie Culpepper and Eleanor Wilson, were both attired in pure white; one bearing a beautiful basket of pink chrysthamums, while the other carried pure white.
     The parlor was gracefully decorated with wild smilax, and a beautiful mound of ferns, begonias, oranges and other pot plants formed a most charming background for the bridal party.
     Shortly after many congratulations were extended to the happy party, they were accompanied by a number of friends to the residence of Mr. R.L. Baldwin, brother of the groom, at Waverly Hall, where they were given a reception. Mrs. R.L. Baldwin, assisted by her sisters, Misses Lillie and Nettie Mae Byrd, received the guests. The bridal party received quite a number of very handsome presents in Waverly Hall as well as at the bride’s home.
     On Thursday the 17th they were given a reception at the residence of Robert Baldwin, Sr., father of the groom. After many hours of enjoyment were spent the friends and relatives extended many good wishes to the happy party and left them anchored out upon the sea of life.
