from Mrs. C. S. D wight's fingers was
began the beautiful marriage ceremony
of the Rev. Stephen E. Prentiss and
Miss Mattie Egleston, daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. DuBose Egleston.
The bride and her maids were preceded
up the aisle by the ushers, Dr.
Aiken, Dr. Hanahan, Messrs. J. W.
Hanahan, IV G. Dwight, W. D. Douglass
and W. Egleston, who took their
places at t ie steps of the chancel.
I Just as the bride reached the foot of
the chancel she with her father was
met by the groom on the arm of Mr.
Murray Robinson, the best man, comi
ing from the vestry room. When the
solemn rites had been concluded, the
bride and groom came out first by a
march from Lohengrin; then came
Mr. Robinson with Miss Lou Egleston,

Hanahan with Miss Annie Aiken,
Dr. David Aiken with Miss DuBose,
Mr. J. W. Hanehan with Miss Marie
Dwight, the geutlemen joining the
ladies at the steps of the chancel.
The bride was charming in a gown
of India silk, made with draped skirt
en traine, round yoke of tulle outlined
with handsome bretelles, overlaid wirn
soft folds of tulle, frill of tulle gracefully
caught back with sprays of
smilax, and in her hand she carried an
exquisite bouquet of white lilies and

and maid of honor, wore a beautiful
costume of white organdy trimmed
with white satin ribbon; bodice draped
with smilax and white plumbago.

All the bride's maids wore their hair

The chancel of the church was most
beautifully and tasteiuny aecoraieu
with lilies, geraniums, blossoms and
ferns, and presented an exceedingly
lovely picture as the fair and graceful
bride with her attendants took their
places in it.
After the ceremony at the church, a
reception was tendered at the bride's
home, and there too the decorations
were exquisite and beautiful.
Mr. and Mrs. Prentiss left on the
11 o'clock train for a tour at the
North, and will return in a week.
A large number of their friends saw
them off, and many were the kind and
good wishes expressed for them, and
in these The News and Herald sincerely

SOMEBODY HAS LOST HIS WIFE.
On Sunday evening about four or
five o'clock a rather Coxey-looking individual
was seen on the streets of
Winnsboro, as he claimed, in quest of
hia wife, lie gave his name as Charles
F. Munroe and said he was originally
from Michigan. His tale of woe was |
as follows: He claimed to be a
married man, and thit the woman who
once cast her lot with him, (but who
was now casting it with some other
party unknown to the deponent) bore
the name of Lizzie Meelze. In suppert
of this story he produced a marriage
license dated at Columbia, February
27, 1894, in which it appeared
that the aforesaid apparent Coxeyite,
na l? vrnnrop. anri "Lizzie Meetze
! were united in the holy bonds for
better or worse, (no one knows which)
by Rev. L. C. Carrol, of Columbia.
He told the people here that he had
seen his wife near Simpson's Turnout
sitting by a camp fire and that she invited
him t) come to the lire; but noticing
a big six-shooter and a dirk
knife in the belt of a supposed tramp,
who was 1> ing near the fire, he de

need a friend, he was unarmed, he
wanted a gun and would put more
lead in that fellow lliau he could comfortably
perambulate with; bur there
was only one condition upon which he
would dare to handle the gun, and it
was. that the stub should be guaranteed
to kill fire-hundred yards off. He
was trying to enlist the sympathy and
aid of the Deputy Sheriff of this place,
and had about succeeded. But convincing
the aforesaid deputy that this
fellow was a bad man, a dead, sure
shot and well armed the deputy concluded
that North Carolina was the
best place to intercept this thief of
happiness; so he pressed his purpose
and succeeded in sending the deserted
husband further on. Argument was
brought to bear on Monroe that South
jjtixQnjPBcmMtirT11 iii'V *
Carolina was the best State to till a
man in but the deputy insisted that for
certain success he had belter press on
to Charlotte. The deputy did not (
have any such long range gnu and j
then he said our laws were not strict i
to punish for any crime as was the ]
laws of North Carolina; so he finally j
got the job off his hands. The man '

to be) passed through town ou (

Delegates to Biruiingluin) ?Military Com5S;

IJilkjeway, S. C., April 23 ?Ou
Saturday the 21st the survivors in this
section met for the purpose of organizing
a survivors' association. A
goodly number were present and au
organization effected by the election
of J. D. Harrison president, T. W.
Sligh and W. G. Hinuant vice-presidents,
G. \Y. Moore, secretary. The
association elected Messrs. J. D. Harrison
and Preston Cooper delegates to
the meeting to be held at Birmingham,
Tuesday 2tth. It is quite likely both
delegates \yill attend. Committees
were appointed to look after veterans
who were unable to attend the meeting.
There being a good many representatives
of the "Lost Cause" in this
section who were fortunate enough to
pass satciy tnrougn tne late war, tins
will, we have 110 doubt, be a large
body, when all are enrolled.
What a glorious meeting there will
be in Birmingham when those, who
have not seen each other for nearly
thirty years, meet, renew old associations
and talk of the ups and down of
the late war. This meeting, however,
will be mingled into feelings of sadness,
for many who were at the surrender
have long since "gone to that
bourne whence no traveler returns."
Were it not for the stringency in
money matters, many would go who,
under the circumstances, are forced to
deny themselves this pleasure.
The association will meet again on
the first Saturday in May.
Saturday afternoon quite a number
of yeur.g men from the country were
here?object being the organizing of a
military cempany. We understand
aoout tony were enrolled, ana w. d.
Johnson elected captai*, R B. Lewis
1st lieutenant, English Rembert, 2nd
lieutenant, R. D. Bolick orderly sergeant.
The name of 3rd lieutenant, if
any, the writer has failed to learn.
Since our last, we have been blessed
with fine showers, which were badly
needed, and which have revived not
only vegetation, but the spirits of the
people. Oats were suffering in this
section, in fact everything was. "While
writing, the prospect for another rain
is very good.
Our town continues dull, and likely
to remain bo for sometime to come.
Money was never scarcer than now,
and persons out of employment fiud it
impossible to get anything to do. Onr
old State is certainly in a bad condition.

on the dispensary law ha? been received.
Had this" decision fceen rendered
sooner in all probability the sad
aflair at Darlington would not have
happened.
We were surprised, but truly delighted,
to see in our town our old
friends G. W. McCants, Esq., and
R II. Jennings, our worthy Clerk of
Court. Sorry time would not admit
of their spending some time with us
We are always glad to see our Winnsboro
friends."
Two of our young bicyclists went up
to the Boro Thursday "and returned
that eveniug, makings the trip of twelve
miles in about an hour and thirtv-five
minutes?pretty good traveling" for
young men who are by no means expert
riders.
Wedding cards are out announcing
the marriage of Miss II. W. Edmunds
to Mr. Robinson, of Abbeville County,
we believe, on Thursday, 26th. We
like to hear of our young friends marrying,
but really we dislike to see such
a young lady as" Miss "Pet" taken from
our section of country. Our best
wishes will certainly attend her where
ever she may go.

has been elected to take charge of the
