A HAPPY MARRIAGE.
Bride In Cream-Groom In Clo- '
ver.
'The marriage of Miss Nonie A. Harvin, ~
of this town, and Doctor D. D. Salley, of
Edisto, took place last Thursday evening
in the parlor of the bride's p-arents. The .~
eremony was to have taken place in the n
Presb terian church, but on account of a C
recent afflhetion in the family the affair ni
was made as nearly privata as could be. G
Rev. James McDowell performed the ser
vice in the presence of relatives and a fewg
special friends.
The bride was attired in cream albatross
and the pin used to hold her wreath of
orange blossoms was the same that was
used on the occasions of her mother and
grandmothers' marriages. The happy pair
received a number of band~come presents. h
Dr. and Mrs. Salley left last Monday to p
visit relatives ini Orangeburg county. when b
they will leave for Edisto, the-ir future n
home.g
The bride is very popular here, having
been active in church work as well as mat-t
ters of society, and up to a short time ago
was one of the teachers in the Collegiate *
Institute where she endeared herself to the t;
children. The groom was pirincipal of the fl
Institute at one time, and he, too, had E~
many friends here. We but voice the feel
ing of the entire community when we wish 0:
them health, wealth, and Lnany joys. a

master Tennant the sum of $481.73
laimed by the government to be

hat Inspector Gillespie. on failing
o collect the money, went to Sum
er and procured warrants of arrest
gainst Mr. J. E. Tennant, the post
iaster. and Mr. W. E. Keels, who'
ad been acting as his clerk.
On last Wednesday Deputy U. S.
farshal Emanuel arrested the par
ies and took them to Sumter before

On Friday the parties arrested
ave the required bonds of -$2,(G0

nited States Court which meets in
harleston next May.
The alleged deficit only covers the
mount said to be due the govern
ient to June :30th, and if there is
ny further shortage the amount has
ot been ascertained by the bonds
ien.
Under instructions from the In
pector. Mr. Louis Appelt, one of Mr.
'enuant's bondsmen, went to Sum
ierton and took charge of that of
ce for the bondsmen. While there
e undertook to ascertain from the
ooks the exact condition of things
ut failed to do so on account of not
eing able to procure the necessary I
ata. He then swore in Dr. B. M.

Mr. Tennant acknowledges a short

) raise the necessary money to make

nowledges having used some of the

lie benefit of the bondsmen some
oods to realize money from. The
ffair is very unfortunate, Mr. Ten
ant being a man of large family,
nd no one believes that he has wil
illy committed any wrong, but that
is unfortunate predicament was
rought about from not giving h;s
usiness the proper attention and
