Prosperity, June 30.?The last two months Prosperity has lingered in a state of suspense over the lingering illness of one of the oldest and most beloved women, Mrs. Martha Gallman Bowers, wife of Mr. L. S. Bowers. The end came last night at 9:00 o'clock and Mrs. Bowers passed to the great beyond, surrounded by all the children ancl the sorrowing husband. ? ? ? J ^ If "D Many years ago iur. aim mis. tuners came to Prosperity to live and ever since then their home has been synonomous with hospitality. Mrs. Bowers was a devoted mother and ever ready friend and a consistent Christian. All who knew Mrs. Bowers will arise and called her blessed. Her neighborhood in which she was so deservedly popular has sustained a loss that is felt only when a neigh borhood mother passes away. Her many estimable qualities of heart make her memory a very precious heritage to those who remain behind.

Hunter of Clemson College and one. son, S. Bushnell Bowers, of Fitzgerald, Ga., one sister, Mrs. Sallie Fellers , of Columbia, and one broth er, Mr. Thos. Gallman of Newberry.

Shealy, in Grace Lutheran church, and Interment in the Prosperity cemetery. \ Boulware-Moore Marriage. Pee Dee Advocate. It has been* my pleasure to attend many marriages and joyous festivities, and I always greatly v enjoy them, but during my entire past life, I have never more genuine^ enjoyed an occasion than the one I am writing about. Mr. W. D. Moore and I have been warm personal friends since my boyhood; we were boys and young men together, and the incidents of intervening years has intensified this friendship. "Billie" told me last winter that he was "dead in love" with a beautiful young woman, and that he intended tn marrv her if he could induce her to think as he did. About ten days ago Billie told me that the happy event would take place the 18th ol June, at the young lady's home in Newberry county, S. C., and that 1 must accompany him. I was very busy, but I could not refuse such a request from my good friend, and I went and am glad I did so. Miss Sudie May Boulware, the lovely bride, resided six miles wesx of the city of Newberry. The groom, his son, John D. Moore and myself arrived in Newberry about 1 o'clock p. m., Wednesday, June 18th. We stopped at the Newberry hotel, where we received courteous and hospitable attention, met some old friends and enjoyed the short stay in the up-country city. Billie was somewhat nervous, restless ' and impatient, especiallj whil#? it was rammer, and six miles in the country to travel over muddj roads. Miss Boulware for the past three or four years has been the principal of Edgewood high school, four miles west of Bennettsville, the patrons and pupils are delighted with her and she will, although married, have charge of the school again next term We left Newberry at 4 o'clock p m., in a large livery car, arrived a1 the Boulware home 011 time, founc the minister and guests present, anc at 5 o'clock the ceremony took place without delay. The bride's home is situated in a beautiful and prosperous section,of Newberry county, 2 large commodious dwelling, on ar elevation in a grove, near the public road. As the couple entered the parlor Mrs. Herbert Boulware beautifully played Mendelssohn's wedding mVinVi moa nnH artis lUdll.ll, VV111V11 nuu tivtnj V...V. I tically rendered during the ceremony. The bride's uncle, Rev. R. C Boulware, member of the upper S jC.

Th? j bride is a beautiful lady and during j the ceremony her face was radiam jwith joy and happiness. She wore a lovely traveling costume of darl | brown, with hat to match. Th< (groom was becomingly attired in i ' trrav suit of latest style, and un 'doubtedly appeared to be the happi jest man on earth. Elegant refresh jments^of cream and cake were served, after which goodbys were said and we all returned to the Southerr depot in Newberry, where at 0:15 p jr.., the happy couple left for Gaff v, S.
