Mr,Emile ArrowBinith came up from Georgetown Wednesday morning to spend a day or two in town. Miss Esther Gordon, who is attending the graded school, has re' j * - i i -? lurneaioner noma ai vjuuiujijs for the Christmas holidays. The Christmas dance at the Coleman House was well attended and in every respect a most enjoyable affair. Quite a number or visiting young ladies were present. Prof. T. Olin Epps, who is principal of a flourishing school at Hendersonville, 8. CM (Colleton county) has been spending the Christmas vacation with his par ents, Mr. and Mrs. James Epps. Prof. Epps'is well pleased with his work and his patrons are to be congratulated on having secured his services. Mr. and Mrs. Louis Jacobs entertained the following guests on Christmas day: Misses Gussie Hoffman and Cecil Hirschman, Charleston, Mabel Levy and Margie Burns, Georgetown; Mr. Eddie Jacobs, Macon, Ga.; Messrs. J ulian, Clarence and Louis Jacobs, jr., unarieston, ana Mr. JNappie Jacobs, Georgetown. We had intended to issue Tue Record a day earlier this week, so that it would reach our readers on Xmas day. The forms were made up on Tuesday and everything was ready to "go to press," but the perverse Fate usually presiding about the festive yuletide (or the Southern Express Co.) set our plans at naught by delaying the week's supply of paper, which did not arrive until Wednesday. Of course it would have been unreasonable to expect oar force to work on Christmas day, hence this issue is a few hours late, instead of a day ahead of time as was intended. 4 -Vf4... v:-' V (Till be Received, or Old C A ROMANTIC MARRIAGE. Miss Jennie McColfough, of Saltevs, Weds Mr. Henry N. Sheperd, of Wilmington, N. C. At an early hour yesterday morning this city was the scene of a little romance in real life which bad its beginning over in ] Wilmington, N. C, Mr. Henry < Norman Sheperd, a prominent lumber dealer of a North Carolina < town, and Miss Jennie McCol- ] lough, a society belle of Salters, ' S. C., arrived in the city shortly after midnight and proceeded to the Charleston Hotel in company with W. E. Register, of Wilmington, a conhdential friend of Mr. Sheperd. Prior to their arrival Mr. Register had wired Night Clerk Mottetohave a Presbyterian minister at the hotel when the midnight fast mail reached town. ; Mr. Motte was unable (o procure a preacher in time. When the party ot three appeared at the A hostelry they made several m- j successlul attempts to get hold of a minister of the gospel. Finally g they journeyed around to the resi- I dence of the Rev. J. W. Daniel, * at 94 Wentworth street, aroused : the preacher and had the knot ^ lied at the very ungainly hour of 2 o'clock a. ra.

Many of our young ladies have received a similar letter and some sent money before they tound out the scheme. * Then again I am afflicted fcith J letters from Virginia to Texas j wanting to know it the publisher of a paper in Monticello, Fla., is v my son, and will he perform his g promises if they get faiim twenty- e five subscribers at $1 each.
