LEAMAN-ADAIR
WEDDING *
(From Yesterday’s -Greenwood-Index
Journal)
In a ceremony marked by a beau
tiful simplicity Miss Luella Leaman,
of this city, became the bride of Mr.
Robert Christopher Adair, of Clin
ton, last evening at eight-thirty
o’clock at the First Presbyterian
church, Rev. J. A. MacLean perform
ing the impressive ring ceremony.
The church was a scene of rare
beauty with the light from the my
riads of softly gleaming cathedral
candles shedding a subdued radiance
over the entire interior.
Graduated cathedral candlelabra
holding lighted white candles formed
a pathway down each isle leading to
the wee white gates, covered with as
paragus over a foundation of white.
The chancel and altar were covered
in white over which was a tracery of
green asparagus. Just behind the
chancel and in the choir loft cathe
dral candelabra were placed and beau
tiful ferns and baskets of pink gladi-
ola formed an exquisite background
artistic in a beautiful and impressive
simplicity. A low, semi-circle fence
of white lattice-work drifted with the
feathery green fern held at intervals
clusters of the gleaming white can
dles and half-encircled the bridal
party, who took their places before
the minister, the maids and grooms
men crossing and standing behind the
lattice, within the chancel railing.
For a half hour preceding the cere
mony a charming musical program
was rendered. An organ prelude,
played by Mrs. Lee Hodges, was fol
lowed by “Shubert’s Serenade” by
Mrs. Hodges, accompanied with the
violin by Miss Annie Laurie Tolbert.
“At Nightfall” was sung by Mr. Bar-
nie Parrott, after which the “Bridal
Chorus” from “The Rose Maiden”
was rendered by Miss Jennie Engels,
Mrs. VL A- Will|ama, Mrs. A. S. Mon,
Mrs. J. W. McCorkle, Mr. Irvin Cole
man, Mr. Pierre Burdette, Mr. J. H.
Landrum, and Mr. Barnie Parrott.
Miss Jennie Engles sweetly sang
“Because I Love You.” Mrs. Hodges
provided the wedding music, playing
! Lohegrin’s March for the procession-
I al and that of Mendellsohn for the
| recessional, while “To a Wild Rose”
was softly played during the cere
mony.
The bride, who was given in mar
riage by her brother, Mr. S. L. Lea-
man, was a picture of girlish beauty;
weddfhg gown of white Duchess
satin, beaded in pearls and appliqued
in silver lace, was a straight draped
model caught up on the side with a
pearl ornament. The long ! court
train which fell from the shoulders
was beaded with pearls and her filmy
veil was gracefully caught in the
back with orange blossoms to a
crown of pearls encircling her fore
head. On each side of the crown
were clusters of hanging orange blos
soms. Her exquisite costume was
completed by a shower bouquet of
bride’s roses apd valley lilies.
Mrs. S. L/Leaman, the dame-of-
honor, wore a handsome gown of pink
1 georgette, combined with lace and
'pink velvet ribbon. Silver slippers
1 and rose and silver bandeau complet-
1 ed her costume. She carried a show
er bouquet of lavender sweet peas.
The maid-of-honor, Miss Myra Lea-
man, was beautiful in pink georgette
and silver lace, combined with bands
of pink velvet ribbon, and the whole
over and under-dress of metal cloth.
Her bouquet was of lavender sweet
peas, showered. The bridesmaids,
who were Misses Dorothy Tolbert,
Annie B. Adair, Mildred Bolton, and
Sue Leaman, were dressed alike in
frocks of jade green tulle, over metal
[cloth, the full skirts banded near the
t top with rows of narrow silver rib
bon. They wore silver hair bandeaux
jand silver slippers and carried show
er bouquets of pink sweet peas.
The dainty little gate-keepers,
Caroline Gardner and Jean Foster
Bailey, who preceded the bridal party,
were fatry-like in their beauty, Caro
line in a little frock of jade green
tulle banded with silver ribbon and
'sprinkled with little French ribbon
flowers, and Jean Foster wearing
pink georgette banded with silver rib
bon and sprinkled with French rib
bon flowers.
| The little flower girls were Eliza
beth Fuller of Cross Hill, and Rosa
i Lee Hodges of Greenwood. They
were lovely with their old fashioned
| bouquets frilled with white silk lace
