Marriage of Mr. Will Riggins to MUa Mamie Lee Cranford? Personal and Other XoteH. Correspondence of the Yorkville Enquirer. Bullock's Creek, February 11.?Many happy brides have crossed tbe old homestead of Mr. D.J. Good; but not one of them could have been more beautiful than Mamie Lee Cranford, who, on last Wed- t nesday afternoon at 3 o'clock, became the " wife of Mr. Will Riggins, of Blaireville. A number of invited guests'were gather- 1 ed to witness this solemn ceremony. When the appointed hour arrived, the at- i tendants came in: Miss Mamie Robin- | son, of Cotton, with Mr. Clarence Ratchl'ord, of Sharon; Miss Estelle Palmer, ^ with Mr. Ellie Maloney, of Blaireville; J. Miss Janie Riggin's, the groom's sister, with Mr. Sam Carroll, of Blaireville; 4 Miss Florence Cranford?sister of the bride?with Mr. Harvey Sberer, aiso of A Blaireville. The bridesmaids all wore ' winter dresses. The young bride, who had scarcely attained her 17 birthday, was robed in a becoming suit of green. She t never looked prettier in her life. The rosy * tints bad somewhat faded from her ten der cheeks; but this only added a sweetness to her youthful beauty. The groom was stylishly dressed aud looked very pleasiDg. Our pastor, Rev. J. B. Swaun, in his usual graceful manner, soon pronounced this young couple man and wife, and they, with a number of friends, iin* mediately left for the home of Mrs. Riggins, the groom's mother, at Blairsville, where a reception was given them that J night. The numerous presents they received were useful and pretty. Mr. and I Mrs. Riggins have the best wishes of all their friends for a pleasant journey t through life, over verdant hills with bloomiDg flowers and sparkling streamlets of crystal waters with ihe sun ever shining brightly above them. 1 Mrs. S. M. Feemster is very sick. ? Mrs. William Good, of Gould, is also % quite siek. Mr. and Mrs. J. Law Lemmond, of Winnsboro, visited Bullock's Creek last week. Misses Nellie aud Ella Whitesides, of Hickory Grove, visited our section this week. LMr. J. E. Bankhead, one of our young men has taken up bis abode at Sharon.
